Persatuan Pencinta Alam Malaysia berkata, Lynas melanggar Peraturan-peraturan Kualiti Alam Sekeliling (Buangan Terjadual) 2005 yang mengehadkan penyimpanan 20 tan sisa radioaktif bagi maksimum 180 hari. lynas
PETALING JAYA: Persatuan Pencinta Alam Malaysia memberi amaran kemungkinan berulangnya tragedi Bukit Merah jika kerajaan mengecualikan Lynas Malaysia daripada undang-undang untuk mengawal sisa radioaktif.
Kanak-kanak di kawasan itu dikesan mempunyai kandungan plumbum tinggi dalam darah mereka dan ujian klinikal mendapati sebilangan daripada mereka menghidap kanser dan penyakit autoimun.“Lynas harus mengambil langkah yang perlu dengan segera. Jika tidak, tragedi Bukit Merah akan berulang.” Katanya, “dengan lebih 1 bilion tan sisa berusia lebih 180 hari” disimpan di belakang kilang itu, Lynas jelas melanggar Peraturan-peraturan Kualiti Alam Sekeliling 2005 yang mengehadkan penyimpanan 20 tan sisa radioaktif bagi maksimum 180 hari.
Beliau turut menyelar Jabatan Alam Sekitar gagal melindungi alam sekeliling dan mendakwa ia “lebih kepada bersubahat” dalam memudahkan operasi Lynas.
