85% of Hunters Point Naval Shipyard is landfill - most affected by radiological elements.

by Francisco Da Costa
Over eighty five percent of the Hunters Point Naval Shipyard is landfill. Once there were two large hills that the United States Navy demolished. Then they spread the dirt all over the wetlands - creating supposedly land on which to build. With intent - they spread the remains of the Ohlone, The First People of San Francisco - thinking very little of desecration. The two hills were Shellmounds - Sacred Burial Grounds of the Muwekma Ohlone. Today, this desecration will come to haunt - those that do not know to respect. Nothing good will come at Hunters Point Naval Shipyard.
Speaking to the San Francisco Board of Supervisors in the Board of Supervisors Chambers, Room 250 - I said a long time ago - " Nothing good will come at Hunters Point Naval Shipyard".

Once at Hunters Point stood two huge hills much like the nearby Bayview Hill by Candlestick Point.

The United States Navy - thinking they were smart created land from the wetlands that abounded and created an unique habitat. The United States Navy destroyed the wet land and the surround pristine - habitat.

The United States Navy thought little when they with "intent" spread the remains of the Ohlone - thinking that as time passed - those that have Patrimonial Jurisdiction over the land of their ancestors - would forget. The Ohlone are the First People of San Francisco. Some know of them but most do not:

"Nothing good will come at Hunters Point Naval Shipyard". You just cannot desecrate and think for a moment you can escape the wrath of the Almighty.

Today, a full eight five percent plus of Hunters Point Naval Shipyard is landfill. The landfill contains Methane Gas, Mercury, PCBs, lead, 46 other toxic elements plus - and the worst radiological elements you could ever think off.

You can find Depleted Uranium all over the Hunters Point Naval Shipyard. It was tested here before it was tested elsewhere. It was here that the National Defense Radiological Laboratory were situated - where the bombs dropped on Japan were assembled.

All over the Hunters Point Naval Shipyard - large animals have been radiated and buried. The United States Navy pretends to tell some facts - though the Final Historical Radiological Assessment Report. But, there is more.

Today, Mayor Gavin Newsom, Senator Diane Feinstein, Congressperson Nancy Pelosi, others very corrupt - the likes of Supervisor Sophina Maxwell - want to build thousand of homes - giving no consideration what so ever - to the Health and Safety of those that will make their abode on Hunters Point Naval Shipyard. Time will tell.

Global Warming is on us - in less then three years large areas around Parcel E, E2, B, D, C will experience serious - flooding.

If there is an Earthquake all of the above parcels will be an inferno.

The Methane Gas will react with cesium, manganese, lead, and other radioactive material - creating such an inferno - that no existing Fire-Fighting equipment or technology will be able to address.

The fire will rage for months and impact the whole City and County of San Francisco.

The Parcels E and E2 are the two most prone to a Big Earthquake - now imagine the City and County of San Francisco planning to have Recreational Facilities on this land.

Daily radiological elements seep into the bay - polluting the Bay with radiological contaminants.

Daily, the Watershed all over the Hunters Point Naval Shipyard yard is polluted - and the more we, the constituents bring this to the attention of the United States Navy - the less the United States Navy pays heed to our - clarion calls.

Parcel E2 is so polluted with radiological elements that experts - mandate this area be cleaned as soon as possible.

The contaminated soil must be removed and transported to certain holding areas all outside California - and under the control of the Corps of Engineers.

It is a shame that those Representatives that should protect the constituents of San Francisco - with "intent" because of "greed" do not give a damn.

The think of making money and building homes on contaminated - soil. Shame on them - the likes of Mayor Gavin Newsom and Senator Diane Feinstein.

The scenario is all the more despicable because a Rogue Company named Lennar - has been chosen to do the "dirty deed" building homes on contaminated land - more radiological.

Lennar has declared bankruptcy in Southern California with LandSource, in Mare Island, Vallejo - California, Richmond, California. In recent days Lennar Stocks have spiraled to single digits - reaching $9.30 cents - and it will spiral further and drown in the "cesspool" of its own - making.

The present Housing Market does not favor Lennar. The present Mortgage Crises does Lennar further harm. No decent Financial Institution will loan Lennar money.

Recently like a coward Lennar went to the State of California begging for $25 million and was rejected.

Earlier, Lennar linked with LandSource has wasted over $500 million of CALPERS money - money belonging to the employees that work for the State of California - pension money invested in various funds - including the Rogue Company, Lennar.

Some one chose to invest with the devil - Lennar and made the worst mistake - ever.

Many San Franciscans fail to hear the clarion call - but , before it is too late - we have to pay heed - there is a very narrow window of opportunity. Time is running out - the crooks want it all. Who will deter them? Aho.
