SAGAMORE- The Cape Downwinders are gearing up for their annual ‘NO ESCAPE FROM THE CAPE, Close Pilgrim NOW Rally’ at the Sagamore Bridge this week.
Downwinders say that in the event of a nuclear accident, there is no escape from the cape. They claim that Cape Codders are considered acceptable collateral damage to the profits of Entergy, Pilgrim’s nuclear operator.
This Memorial Day takes on more meaning than ever for the group as they point out that not only is the troubled Pilgrim nuclear reactor a threat to our communities, in addition, the tightly racked and densely packed spent fuel pool has serious degradation problems and poses another danger.
The event will take place this MONDAY (28th) from 11 A.M.-2P.M. at the base of the Sagamore near the Christmas Tree Shop.
