This episode is brought to you by the NCRTD Blue Bus. This week on Voices of Taos, reporter Stephanie Gates speaks with Talavi Cook, a Project Associate at Amigos Bravos supporting watershed restoration and quality projects and facilitating the Rio Fernando Revitalization Collaborative. Stephanie and Talavi discuss the venting of tritium at Los Alamos National Laboratories, which was previously slated to begin Saturday (Sept. 13), but has now been rescheduled to begin on Tuesday (Sept. 16). They talk about what tritium is, and whether there are potential safety concerns for the surrounding areas. Gates and Cook also talk about how the project was approved in the first place — despite objections from multiple communities in the state — as well as what people can do to keep themselves and their families safe.
