Freedom Industries Releases Spill Site Cleanup Plan

Posted on by

Remediation Plan

CHARLESTON, W.Va. (WSAZ) -- Freedom Industries has submitted it's remediation plan for the site of the leak that happened in January.

The MCHM and PPH leak into the Elk River led to a no use ban for thousands of West Virginia American Water customers in nine counties.

The plan, developed by Pennsylvania-based Civil & Environmental Consultants, addresses the environmental conditions at the spill site.

According to a press release from the WVDEP, the plan includes a summary of water quality sampling and remedial measures that Freedom Industries has already implemented at the spill site. The plan also provides a schedule of activities, including site characterization and remediation of impacted soils and groundwater, which will begin once tank removal on the property's northern end, where much of the contamination occurred, is complete.

Tank 396, which leaked the chemicals, is located on the northern end of the Freedom site, according to the DEP. Preliminary information has indicated that the primary flow path of the chemicals from Tank 396 was to the north, where a culvert pipe and cobble fill provided the transport mechanism from the secondary containment area to the Elk River.

It is noted in the plan that remedial options described are preliminary and "presumptive" in nature and can change based on information obtained as part of the site characterization. According to the plan, "Despite these variables, it is important to note that the remedial options ultimately selected will be designed to achieve the overall objective of remediating the site to eliminate current and future threats to human health and the environment related to the MCHM release."

Freedom Industries will submit a final remedial investigation report once enough information is available to clearly identify the extent of environmental impacts at the site.

Algeria: Pre-election clampdown exposes gaping holes in human rights record

Posted on by

Mounting curbs on freedom of expression in the run-up to Algerias upcoming elections underscore disturbing shortcomings in the countrys overall human rights record, said Amnesty International in a new briefing published today.

Moves to silence critics and quash social unrest are at the forefront of a number of human rights concerns highlighted by the organization ahead of Algerias presidential elections on 17 April, when President Abdelaziz Bouteflika, in power since 1999, is controversially seeking a fourth term. Other challenges include shortcomings in laws that facilitate torture and ill-treatment, and fail to adequately protect women from gender-based violence as well as prevailing impunity for past abuses.

Algerian authorities strategy has been to nip in the bud any attempt to challenge them or their record. With the upcoming elections, they are up scaling the clampdown and showing they will not tolerate public criticism at any level, said Nicola Duckworth, Amnesty Internationals Senior Director of Research.

There appears to be a concerted effort by the Algerian authorities to seize control of the narrative in the run-up to the elections by tightening their stranglehold on freedom of expression. A lack of open debate and restrictions on the right to criticize or protest to express social grievances or political demands cast doubt over the upcoming elections.

Several foreign journalists have yet to be granted visas to cover the elections and international human rights groups such as Amnesty International have been withheld visas to the country for years.

The state of emergency was lifted in Algeria in 2011, yet restrictions continue to be imposed on freedom of expression, association and assembly. Although it is an oil-rich country, social and economic unrest fuelled by corruption, the rising costs of living, high unemployment and lack of access to housing has continued. The Algerian authorities have largely responded to such protests by forcibly dispersing them, as well as harassing and arresting demonstrators and trade union activists.

Despite a ban on demonstrations in Algiers, following an initial crackdown in early March the authorities have not forcibly dispersed peaceful protests in the capital which were held under heavy security.

However, the authorities continue to target Algerians, including journalists who stray from the official, pro-Bouteflika narrative. In one harrowing recent example, the wife of a journalist who had covered opposition protests was assaulted by three individuals in plain clothes believed to be members of the security forces. They reportedly threatened her at gunpoint and demanded that her husband stop criticizing the authorities on Facebook, before scalding her with hot water.

Last month security forces raided Al-Atlas TV, a private TV station which had criticised the authorities in its broadcasts. It was shut down and forced off air on 12 March 2014. Under current laws, only state-sanctioned media are fully licensed, with private channels granted temporary licenses that can be revoked with little warning.

Family Dollar Promptly Applying EAS Loss-Prevention Technology To Stores Nationwide

Posted on by

By Megan Zielinski, contributing writer

Checkpoint Systems, leading global supplier of merchandise availability solutions for retail businesses, recently announced they are rapidly supplying more than 8,000 Family Dollar Stores with electronic article surveillance (EAS) systems nationwide. Since deployment in October 2013, 3,500 systems have been installed and 120 are happening each week, this marks the move as one of the fastest introductions of the new service for Checkpoint.

Family Dollar will be implementing use of Checkpoints source tagging, hard tagging program on merchandise as well as installing EVOLVE P10 ECO, the most advanced shrink management system on the market throughout all stores by December of this year. The powerful EAS system features include data analytics, alarm management, energy savings, and RFID technology. All three systems combined will provide Family Dollar with an all-inclusive approach to reducing shrink and increase sales.

Family Dollar entered into a multi-year agreement with Checkpoint in October 2013 after analyzing positive results during three years of testing EVOLVE P10 ECO system in select stores. Use of EVOLVE ECO electronics is expected to reduce store shrink in addition to reducing energy consumption by 75 percent compared to other solution alternatives. We are thrilled to participate in the continued success story of Family Dollar. This is a proven program, with a significant ROI, so our focus is on speedy and efficient implementation. The program is also a strategic platform for future added value; the long-term partnership, therefore, is exciting for both companies, states Per Levin, President and Chief Sales Officer, Shrink Management and Merchandise Visibility Solutions, Checkpoint Systems.

According to a study through Euromonitor International in 2013, Checkpoint revealed that with the increase in organized crime, shoplifting, and employee theft, companies are suffering, as shrink is continuously escalating. Global Retail Theft Barometer 2012-2013 revealed, shrink cost the retail industry more than $112 billion globally in 2012, representing 1.4 percent of retail sales. As a result, more and more retailers are placing shrink reduction at the top of their priority list, investing in resourceful, high-quality technology solutions to prevent loss. Retailers are deploying RFID-based solutions that combine protection with visibility at the item level. This type of strategic platform, combined with investments in people and processes, opens up new horizons to reduce out of stocks, improve merchandise availability for consumers, and increase sales for retailers, explains Levin.

Antenna implanted in cyborg's skull gets Wi-Fi, color as sound

Posted on by

Man and machine melded. Lars Norgaard

Neil Harbisson, a 31-year-old European artist, was born with a rare visual condition known as achromatopsia, which means that he can only see the world in black and white. Because he wanted to experience color, in 2004 he had an antennalike device, which he calls an "eyeborg," attached tightly to his head. The eyeborg could sense color around him and convert it to sound that he could hear as it was conducted along the bones of his skull. He then learned to associate the sounds of colors with their names.

A few months ago in December, Harbisson underwent a surgical procedure that more deeply integrated a new model of the eyeborg into his body via three holes he had drilled into the back of his skull.

Like the previous version, his new model can sense 360 different colors and pick up ultraviolet and infrared frequencies. This version of the eyeborg, however, has Wi-Fi and Bluetooth connectivity, so friends with smartphones can use an app to beam images directly to Harbisson's gear so he can "see" them without using his eyes.

I spent a fascinating half-hour chatting with Harbisson and I'm truly excited to meet him later in April at Moogfest, a festival celebrating the future of technology and sound, which I'll be covering for Crave. Here are the highlights of our interview.

Lars Norgaard

I call it a cyborg antenna because it can do many more things than just convert color to sound. So it's an antenna that goes directly inside my bone. It's drilled inside the skull and then it has Bluetooth connections and allows me to connect to other antennas or other mobile devices or to the Internet directly so I can perceive things that are not in front of me.

So if somebody with a mobile phone wants to send me images from anywhere else, then I can receive these images directly inside my head and I can perceive them. The main difference is that it's now inside the skull and I can connect to other people's vision.

Before it was an explant, so it was pressuring the bone...now there's no pressure anymore because the sound goes directly inside the skull. There are three holes. One is for the audio input, the other is for the antenna, and the third one is actually a spare one.

It's different, yes. I don't feel any pressure now. The big difference as well is that if someone touches the antenna basically I feel it, which is something I didn't before. It's as if someone was touching your tooth or something. So this is very different. And not feeling the pressure is also very different. At the beginning I felt that I didn't have the antenna, so I felt weird because I didn't feel it. Otherwise it's just really good. It's a big, big difference physically.
