Plan to discharge water into from closed sparks uproar

The nuclear plant along the Hudson River is at the center of a controversy two years after it was shut down

By MICHAEL HILL Associated Press

"But opponents along the river question the health and safety claims. They say the releases of water could be a step back for a once notoriously polluted river that is now a popular summer attraction for sailors, and .

"Communities along the river have already passed resolutions opposing the discharges, and an online petition has gathered more than 440,000 signatures. On Tuesday, a bill sponsored by two Hudson Valley Democrats that would ban discharges into the river was approved by state Assembly.

"'It leaves a bad taste in your mouth ... the idea that we would be polluting our beautiful Hudson River with waste when we’ve spent so many years trying to clean it up. This shouldn’t be a dumping ground,' Assembly member Dana Levenberg said at a state Capitol rally for her bill before the debate.

"The bill, approved by the state Senate earlier this month, is opposed by some labor officials, who say it could interrupt the decommissioning and cause layoffs.

"The bill will be sent to Gov. , who has not said whether she supports the measure."

Off to the pool again to experiment with the Ocean Walker technique.

It’s used by to swim for hours on end when crossing sea/ocean channels and stuff.

I grasped the basics last time but got a severe cramp after an hour and had to limp out of the pool.

There’s still some muscle ache left so today’s challenge is to take it real easy and slow.

“Waves throw surfboards around like matchsticks. Those boards travel at great speed, and a lot of them are really pointy. They effectively become a deadly weapon.”
