No. If you watch the videos on Youtube of the demolition you’ll clearly see concrete chunks flew for a LONG distance.

“All live spectators have been banned for a 10 mile radius. You will only be able to see this on TV, which means that it will be thoroughly controlled and that there is something going on that they don’t want you to see.”

Dude, do you even LIVE in Oregon? Blow it out your ass.

-Residents living in hills behind the tower (Including live television)
-Rvs, tents, and people cover the east and west in kalama (Including live television)
-Docks, platforms, me, and boats no more than one mile away were viewing the tower up front (Including live television)

Sorry no military conspiracy

Just about everything has a minute about of radioactivity. To say there wouldn’t be any in the dust is playing safe for conspiracy whackos like hium/her/. Do you go camping, dear hippies? Those Coleman lanterns emit radioactivity. So do smoke alarms. People that worked at Trojan weren’t exposed to radioactivity that didn’t already exsist in everyday items.

An atom that emitted radioactivity, something they check for when workers (under seven layers of clothing) was called a “flea” because of it’s size.

They had to change the name of them because people like Yellowbird were worried animals could be “bitten by those awful radioactive fleas!”

I5, and the north side of the columbia river were both PACKED with people and boats. Granted the police were in force for crowd control, and the Coast Guard and Sherrifs boats were patrolling the shipping lane.

Someone had a LITTLE exaduration going on.

The Real Story on Trojan Implosion

Did you see the map of the security area? Doesn’t it seem excessively large for a mere demolition? When they take down 50 story buildings in a city, you can watch from across the street. So what’s up here? I did some digging, and I don’t have all pieces yet, but talking to some FAA types, a Homeland Security dude, a FEMA worker, and a Boeing employee, I think have the high points figured out.

This is not a routine demolition.

It is a test of several emergency systems and at least one potential defense system. It has long been thought that terrorists will try to target nuclear reactors, not so much for the explosive potential (there isn’t any), but to create an ecological disaster of radioactive contamination that will make Chernobyl look like a walk in the park. Homeland Security is especially curious as to how the details of such an attack would play out, so the Trojan Implosion is designed as a “simulation” of a nuclear power plant attack. There will be dynamite, but before that is triggered, a remote plane (not sure of the type, my Boeing leak would only say it is big and loaded with jetfuel) is going to crash into the tower ala 9/11. It will be coming in from a direction that will hide it from the TV cameras. My guess is on the northwest side. This part of the test will not only simulate the airplane hit, but will also demonstrate the capability of the remote aircraft, developed by Boeing, for military purposes.

After it strikes, the dynamite will be triggered, the tower will fall, and a huge cloud of cement dust will be kicked up. It has often been reported in the media that tower has ** no ** radioactivity. When pressed for details, and measurement data, it turns out that the word “no” is being interpreted to mean that the level of radioactivity is very low – below legal limits – but not zero. There is enough residual radioactivity in the cement dust that it can tracked after the implosion. That is the third goal of the test – to see how the radioactivity will disperse. It is such a low level that it really does not present a health risk – if you work in a building with granite steps, you will get more radiation from the granite going to work next week than you would from Trojan dust. But the cloud will be trackable for at least 500 miles, depending on wind and atmosphere condition. Look 500 miles due east of Trojan and what do you see? Any major population centers? Any key industries? No, not really.

So for the purpose of a “almost live” simulation of an attack, this is a perfect setup. A decommisioned nuclear plant; the countries largest military aircraft maker just up the street; a low population density zone downwind for a 1000 miles; even the closest big city is a very minor one, so any inconvenience from the actual test or the aftermath won’t really have a significant impact.

All live spectators have been banned for a 10 mile radius. You will only be able to see this on TV, which means that it will be thoroughly controlled and that there is something going on that they don’t want you to see.

“The model for the control room of the plant was based upon the control room at the Trojan Nuclear Power Plant in Rainier, Oregon (along the Columbia River). At the time, it was the only nuclear plant in the US to offer tours that included a tour of the gallery that looked down into the control room.”
