On July 27, the San Onofre Nuclear Generating Station in San Clemente, California, will release nearly 120,000 gallons of wastewater into the Pacific Ocean … at the height of summer when the crowds at San Onofre and Trestles are booming. … SONGS has been shuttered for over a decade now, but due to the U.S. Federal Government’s inability to build a long-term storage facility, there is currently 3.55 million pounds of highly radioactive waste stored right next to some of America’s most surfed beaches. Think of it as America’s most beautiful nuclear waste dump.
