From Sept. 21-26, Fairewinds Team member Tom Clements of Savannah River Site Watch (SRSW) is on a six-day tour in Germany, to oppose the import to Savannah River of highly radioactive fuel from Germany. Greenpeace welcomed Tom and the tour with an illuminated message on the entrance to the Juelich nuclear research center (photo), where German commercial reactor spent fuel is stored.

The tour also will include public meetings, a news conference in Dusseldorf, an event outside the gates of the facility where 600,000 spent graphite fuel balls from a reactor are stored, and will conclude in Berlin with members of the German legislature.
