22年前に原発捨てた町…住民の決断 : ショアハム原発

一市民でも原発を止められると信じ
原発に賛成する議員の再選を阻止し
議会の勢力を逆転させるとは敬服しました。

1979年、アメリカのショアハムでは原発建設計画が進んでいたが
スリーマイル島原発事故をきっかけにショアハムの住民は原発反対に大きく傾いた。
ショアハム原発は住宅地に隣接し、ショアハム原発から東側には
交通手段がないため何かあれば避難はできない状態だった。
反対運動では1万5000人が参加し、うち571人が逮捕された。
当時大学院生だったノラ・ブレデスさんは反対運動をまとめあげて
原発の危険性を訴える活動を展開し、原発に賛成する議員の再選を阻み、
5年後には議会勢力を完全に覆した。
政治家は住民の意向を受け入れてショアハム原発を廃炉にすることを決定したが、
60億ドルの建設費用のうち10分の1が住民の負担になることになってしまった。
だが、それでも住民はショアハムに住み続けることを選んだ。

原発を捨てた町ではないが、
拒否した町は我が日本国にもあった・・

その他一般人は今年8月に死去。福島第一原発事故が起きた時は、ニュースを観て「これが最も恐れていたことだ」とショックを受けていたという。彼女は一市民でも原発を止められることを信じ、それを実現した人物だった。

上の部分が抜けていますよ。

ノラ・ブレデスさんはNora Bredesと綴り、60歳で亡くなったと言う。アメリカは年を取ってから大学や大学院に行くから、彼女もその一人だったはず。死因は述べられていない。女性の人権向上を主張されていたと言う。

Dawidziak: She stopped Shoreham, and more

Executive Director of Shoreham Opponents Coalition Nora Bredes

Michael Dawidziak is a political consultant and pollster.

The passing of former Suffolk County Legis. Nora Bredes, who died last week in Rochester at age 60, shouldn't escape the notice of anyone who shares a common love and concern for Long Island.

Whether you agreed with her politics or not (and there were plenty who didn't), you had to admire her caring commitment and courageous zeal. Platitudes such as these are carelessly thrown around when describing politicians, but they truly and accurately describe the person who was Nora Bredes.

Bredes didn't get involved in politics out of ambition or for personal advancement. She got involved due to a genuine concern for her community. Most citizens are aware of the existence of threats to the safety or well-being of the public. The vast majority of them just never get off their butts and do anything about it. When faced with a known menace to her neighborhood, children or county, Bredes was incapable of doing nothing.

Whereas compassion and caring might have been the motivational forces that got Bredes involved, the words more often used to describe her were tough and smart -- and she was. As a community organizer, Bredes was a leading force in organizing the Shoreham Opponents Coalition. Working together with other activists, she helped to change the terms of the debate from mere protest to political action. She was instrumental in bringing the fight in the streets into the halls of government.

Bredes also had a talent for recruiting people with a wide variety of skills to help her achieve her goals. Knowing that the Shoreham opponents could easily have been trivialized as a bunch of radical protesters, she enlisted the help of professionals, including respected scientists and political consultants I worked closely with her in the anti-Shoreham battle, even though she knew I was a consultant to George H.W. Bush, not exactly an anti-nuke president.

She could be calculating and funny at the same time. Right after the nuclear disaster in the Ukraine in 1986, she put out a brochure that asked in bold print, "Is the Shoreham Nuclear Power Plant safer than Chernobyl?" Answer: "Nyet."

Beyond any reasonable hope, Bredes and a ragtag group of community activists actually stopped this nuclear power plant from opening. It would make a great, if improbable, movie script. George Hoffman, a fellow political consultant who worked in the anti-Shoreham movement, has said, "Without Nora, Shoreham would be operating today." In light of Three Mile Island, Chernobyl and the recent problems in Japan, Bredes' stand back in the 1980s looks pretty good today.

Bredes was a passionate environmentalist and advocate for public health and safety. But her other major initiative in life was the advancement of women in the country's board rooms and halls of powers. For 12 years, she served as director of the Susan B. Anthony Center for Women's Leadership at the University of Rochester. The post gave her a soapbox for advocating for a cause that she always felt deeply about. Her concerns about the lack of opportunities for women proved to be as accurate and prophetic as her concerns about nuclear power.

It's all too easy to look back on Bredes' life and say that women owe her a debt of gratitude, and that she should be a role model for today's generation. In truth, she deserves recognition and thanks from all of us. The spirit of activism that founded this country and continues to work to right the wrongs of the world, burned brightly in Nora Bredes.

Nora Bredes, Who Fought Long Island Nuclear Plant, Dies at 60
By DENNIS HEVESI
Published: August 22, 2011

Nora Bredes, the primary organizer of the grass-roots campaign that kept the Shoreham nuclear power plant on the North Shore of Long Island from opening in the 1980s ― a campaign that prompted the plant to become known, in the words of the local power authority, as “America’s first stillborn reactor” ― died on Thursday in Rochester. She was 60 and lived in Pittsford, N.Y.

The cause was cancer, her son Nathan said.

In February 1987, at a public hearing on emergency evacuation plans for the Shoreham plant, Ms. Bredes held up a photograph of Nathan, then 2 years old. “Along with all the other evidence you collect and weigh, you should weigh this,” she told the officials. “It argues that Shoreham shouldn’t be opened, and it reminds you what you are risking if you allow it to operate.”

That speech ― one of the dozens Ms. Bredes (pronounced BRED-iss) would give during her decade as executive director of the Shoreham Opponents Coalition ― came eight months after the Chernobyl nuclear reactor disaster in the Soviet Union.

Ms. Bredes pulled together more than two dozen local groups that opposed the Long Island Lighting Company’s plan, first announced in 1965, to build the plant. She lobbied local, state and federal officials; organized advertising campaigns; wrote pamphlets (“Lilco, We’ve Had It!”); and planned rallies.

In 1981, 43 percent of Long Islanders opposed the plant, according to a Newsday poll; by 1986, that number had risen to 74 percent.

When the coalition campaign started in 1979, three county legislators opposed the plant. In February 1983, the Suffolk County Legislature passed a resolution, 15 to 1, declaring that the county could not be safely evacuated in the event of a nuclear disaster.

On Feb. 28, 1989, Gov. Mario M. Cuomo and Lilco signed an agreement to shutter the plant. Four months later, Shoreham was sold to the Long Island Power Authority for $1, with a 3 percent surcharge to Long Islanders’ electricity bills to pay off the plant’s $6 billion cost over 30 years. In 1992, Shoreham became the nation’s first commercial nuclear power plant to be dismantled.

That year, Ms. Bredes was elected to the Suffolk County Legislature, representing much of the East End of Long Island. She lost a 1996 bid for a seat in Congress and later moved upstate to become director of the Susan B. Anthony Center for Women’s Leadership at the University of Rochester.

Nora Louise Bredes was born on Oct. 13, 1950, in Huntington, on Long Island, to Charles Bredes and Dorothy Black. Besides her mother and her son Nathan, she is survived by her husband, Jack Huttner; two other sons, Tobias and Gabriel; a brother, Donald; and a sister, Amy Bredes.

Ms. Bredes graduated from Cornell in 1974 and was attending graduate school at Teachers College at Columbia in 1979 when she became involved in the antinuclear movement. She had spent the summers of her childhood swimming in Long Island Sound, and “was outraged at the idea that they would put it all at risk with a nuclear power plant,” she told The New York Times in 1982.

Her son Nathan said she told him the nuclear disaster in Japan this year “was exactly what they were trying to avoid on Long Island.”

This article has been revised to reflect the following correction:

Correction: August 25, 2011

An obituary on Wednesday about Nora Bredes, the primary organizer of a campaign against the Shoreham nuclear power plant on Long Island, misstated the month Ms. Bredes was born. It was October, not November. It also misstated the surname of her sister, who survives her. She is Amy Bredes, not Pirro.
