THE BATTLE OF CHERNOBYL and a horizon documentary about the nuclear disaster.
2 videos together giving a timely reminder of Chernobyl and how much worse it would have been without the mobilisation of hundreds of thousands of workers - indeed the phrase used was "the front line". Contrast this with the awful response of Japan and Tepco in a desperate attempt to minimise the crisis.
Also - from wikipedia article - how come the Nuclear industry worldwide is not paying for the immediate completion of the containment around Chernobyl.
The structure was originally intended to be completed in 2005, but the project has gone through several delays. As of June 2003 the projected completion date was February 2008. In 2009, planned completion was projected for 2012; the same year, progress was made with stabilization of the existing Sarcophagus, which was then considered stable enough for another 15 years. As of February 2010 the reported completion date was pushed back to 2013.[1]
The following schedule was released in June 2003:
12 February 2004 - complete the NSC conceptual design
13 March 2004 - Government of Ukraine to approve the conceptual design
13 June 2004 through 13 September 2004 - conduct a tender and sign a contract with the winner to proceed with relevant engineering and construction work
16 April 2006 through 20 May 2007 - lay foundations for the NSC
16 April 2006 through 22 October 2007 - fabricate steel arch segments, assemble, move in contact and secure arch sections
23 October 2007 through 19 February 2008 - install cranes, piping and lighting fixtures under the arch
20 February through 29 February 2008 - slide the arch structure in place over the existing Shelter
On 11 March 2004 the international tender for NSC design and construction was announced.
On 16 November 2004 technical proposals from potential contractors were opened. After evaluation two candidates were identified from the proposals. These candidates were invited to submit commercial proposals for the NSC. Evaluation of the commercial proposals began in September 2005.
In September 2006, the plant's general director Ihor Hramotkyn announced his intent to annul all bids on the project.[8]
On 17 September 2007, BBC News reported that the project contract was finally signed, with French consortium Novarka (consisting of Vinci Construction Grands Projets and Bouygues Construction as 50/50 partners) constructing the 190 by 200 meter arch structure. Construction costs are estimated as $1.4bn with a project time of 5 years.[9] The constructing consortium itself however reports slightly different numbers, mentioning a contract of 432 million euros, and dimensions of 150 meters length, 257 meters span and 105 meter height. Estimated time for completion was given as 53 months, including 18 months of planning and design studies, with a projected completion in mid-2012.[10]
In February 2010, the Director-General of the plant's facility administration projected completion of the NSC in 2013;[1] Novarka began construction in September 2010.[11]
