press release

Michael D. Campbell, P.G., P.H., and I2M’s EVP and Chief Geologist/Chief Hydrogeologist, announced today the release of a new review of paper as part of I2M’s program to review biased media reports or otherwise faulty articles in the press and other types of media and reports, see Review #28, These reports come from the national media, film producers, national and local adversarial groups, local citizens groups and the attorneys who represent them, all of whom are anti-nuclear power, anti-uranium mining, and/or are wind or solar energy proponents, or attorneys who represent any or all of them.

I2M personnel review and comment on articles selected through a process involving at least three and perhaps additional I2M Associates and selected members of the EMD UCOM, and to publish their collective reviews In the I2M Associates’ Biased Media Report as an educational contribution to geoscientists worldwide, regulatory agency personnel, and to the general public.
