Sodium reactors fell out of favor due to the fact that liquid sodium catches fire when exposed to air and explodes when it mixes with water. These things are reported to have taken place at the Downey Facility.
NASA told our Congress one story about the property and then signed a document telling a very different story. People that get sick on the Downey Property - NASA claims that they have no knowledge of anything and if anything happens it isn't their fault. That is a little different than what they told Congress. Right Click on the small document below and select View Image to read it.
The inserted photo of aerial spraying in Vietnam displayed below is not necessarily an indication that the herbicides, including those specifically for aerial spraying that were purchased for the Downey Property in the thousands of gallons was involved in this horrible part of history. There is documented in the Foster Wheeler Reports a 3,000 gallon underground herbicide tank between Building 1 on the Downey Property and the current Kaiser buildings. This tank has a County of Los Angeles Permit. Yet no one in authority can find that underground tank. But after all, they claim the property was only used to make airplanes and to generate lots of paperwork. That is not a truthful statement.
Here is a list of Reported Contaminants at Kaiser Downey and Downey Studios provided by The U.S. Department of Labor You can also view this same list at: http://www.sem.dol.gov/index.cfm Scroll down to the bottom of the page and select "Show DOE facilities" In the next window select - Toxic substances verified as having been onsite and used at DOE site "Downey Facility" at some time. Note: The original DOL Chemical list was 260. The two top Chemicals were moved down to the "O's", and 1 chemical was removed altogether. This is the missing chemical: Ethoxylated tallowamines;Glyphosate (Isopropyl amine salt of N-phosphonomethyl glycine) US Patent 5543383 - Herbicidal compositions comprising solutions of slyphosate and polyurea and/or/polyurethane. US Patent Issued on August 6, 1996 - Estimated Patent Expiration Date: December 30, 2014 - Considering that the property was concreted over they sure had a lot of herbicides there.
HERE is the original 260 list saved in pdf form.
