The message does not seem particularly spectacular: Last Friday collided in front of the Baltic Sea island of Rügen, a Russian freighter with a British yacht. Although is scrap, but no one seems to have come to grief, and the freighter to complete its voyage.
The Baltic Sea is notorious for the relatively high number of Schiffskarambolagen. So: Nothing special to report. Maybe so. But maybe not, because presumably the involved freighter "Mikhail quotierung Lomonosov" Russian shipping company Northern Shipping Company (NSC) is, among other things loaded with radioactive materials quotierung such as uranium hexafluoride (UF6) and uranium dioxide, and thus poses a risk on an unprecedented scale, eg when UF6 released would.
What exactly the "Mikhail Lomonosov" on board carries with it, could not be clarified at the weekend. The Hamburg Evening Journal quotierung (Springer) against stated the fire department, such a dangerous goods transport is not known.
It is clear that the freighter last Sunday in Kiel waited for the passage through the Kiel Canal and on Monday will arrive in the port of Hamburg. Anti-nuclear activists go, however, believes that radioactive material is on board as the ship in the past, "usually" highly toxic substances transported to Hamburg, said in a joint press release of various environmental groups.
In addition, the Russian shipping company NSC is known that is geschippert with their freighter atomic accessories of all kinds, quotierung radioactive materials, fuel, etc., across the seas. Here, the "dangerous" places, as stated succinctly in good office German, a considerable distance back: hundreds of kilometers inside Russia, almost 2000 km Maritime, which pass through the freighter one of the major shipping lines in the world, the Kadet Trench, in the middle of the southern Baltic runs and because of shipwrecks always ends up in the headlines. Then they pass through the Kiel Canal, the busiest artificial sea lane of the earth. From Hamburg, the risky cargo shall again hundreds of miles by truck over the highway back, sometimes by six to seven different states quotierung to Switzerland.
On 1 May 2013 came in the Hamburg harbor, the container ship "Atlantic Cartier" of the Dutch shipping company Atlantic Container Line (ACL) in fire - loaded with more than 20 tons of radioactive material. It almost quotierung seems like a miracle that this calamity, the cause of which could not be clarified until today, not attracted quotierung hundreds of thousands of people affected. Regardless of the container ship is again in active use - and reiterates "dangerous" in the port city of millions.
Last weekend, about 100 environmental activists and activists met in Hamburg on the nationwide autumn meeting of the anti-nuclear movement. The focus of the session was the nationwide networking. In addition to the long-running "nuclear phase" was also discussed about the campaign for nuclear shipments stop.
In the joint press statement, which was signed, among others, the measuring point for labor and environmental protection (MOUSE) Bremen, Hamburg group SAND and Lubmin quotierung nixda / anti-nuclear alliance Northeast, quotierung is required, "clear up immediately, which is cargo exactly on the Mikhail Lomonosov, what was happening and what civil protection measures had been taken off the island of Rügen, when in fact uranium hexafluoride (UF6) would have resigned. "
"Again we presumably had luck" said the participating environmental quotierung groups who took the shipwreck quotierung on the Baltic Sea as an opportunity to reaffirm their call for an immediate halt to all nuclear quotierung shipments: "We demand the immediate halt to all nuclear shipments. In Hamburg, which meant among other things, the official closure of the port for nuclear transports. From keel to Brunsbuttel the North Sea-Baltic Canal for radioactive materials must be locked. "
"From the perspective of the parties and the Port Authority FLZ the Port of Hamburg quotierung also helps to better meet new challenges. For more than a year, there will frequently be massive delays quotierung for vessels that transit through the Kiel Canal, the busiest artificial waterway in the world and Hamburg's most important connection by sea to the Baltic Sea. The large locks in Brunsbuttel be rehabilitated until well into the next decade in and expanded, because they are completely worn out. Even the smaller locks in Brunsbuttel and the plants in Holtenau are regularly
