Amid objections from property owners and some political parties, the Nellore Municipal Corporation (NMC) authorities are going ahead with the demolition of illegal structures in the arterial roads as per the 2012 master plan.

Several structures in the Childrens Park Road were pulled down on Friday, amid speculations that the traders and shop owners lobby may stop the demolition drive anytime. The drive at Childrens Park Road took everybody by surprise even as the opposition leaders were demanding exemption to the arterial roads from demolition. Childrens Park Road is very wide and there is no need to put traders into inconvenience in the name of demolition. Alternative steps should be taken for this, said former MLA and Congress leader Anam Vivekananda Reddy. He wanted the Trunk Road to be exempted as such a step would deprive nearly 5,000 families of their livelihood sources. Nearly 400 shops would come under the impact of demolition and around a thousand traders families would be pushed into troubles, he said.

As per the Hyderabad Municipal Corporation Act 1955, which is applicable to all municipal corporations, there should be transparency in demolition for road widening. The demolition should be taken up only after carrying out land acquisition and taking adequate measures for rehabilitation of the victims.

The argument put forward by some opposition leaders was that the master plan could be implemented for development of interior colonies like MG Nagar and Sundarayya Nagar. The arterial roads like Trunk Road from Sabari Srirama Kshetram to Atmakur Road should be left untouched.

Making a novel suggestion, Mr. Vivekananda Reddy asked the officials to consider shifting the RTC bus stand from Trunk Road to RTO office area where government land is available. Another alternative would be to introduce one-way traffic in the lanes and main roads in the city so that the problem of heavy traffic would be resolved , said Mr. Reddy.

A section of traders and political parties have sent delegations to meet the top leaders in the State and at the Centre.

Offices and buildings at Santa Susana site will be dismantled

DESERTEDA NASA service building in Area II of the Santa Susana Field Laboratory, which contains mostly office space, is one of a few structures scheduled for demolition this month. MICHAEL COONS/Acorn Newspapers Beginning this month, NASA will demolish about 40 buildings at the Santa Susana Field Laboratory as part of its ongoing effort to clean up the former rocket engine testing site.

The first round of demolition will take place in Area II, which includes the service areas on the northern part of the site and the Delta test site, where large liquid propulsion systems were tested in the 1960s, according to Allen Elliott, SSFL program director.

The service areas include cafeterias, laser labs, office spaces, warehouses, auto shops and other places like that, which arent being used anymore, Elliott said. We wont be demolishing any (rocket engine) test stands though.

The demolition is the first step in cleaning up the field lab and, in some areas, is necessary to remediate the soil beneath some of the structures, Elliott said. The SSFL is no longer required to meet NASAs mission and, as such, the unoccupied buildings and obsolete test stands also arent needed.

Since 1947, the 2,850-acre SSFL has been used as a nuclear test site and for research in the development of ballistic missiles, rockets and space shuttle equipment.

Boeing Co. owns nearly 80 percent of the field lab, including Area IV, which suffered a partial nuclear meltdown in 1959. The federal government owns the remaining 20 percent, which includes all of Area II and part of Area I. Cleanup efforts at the site began in 2010, and NASA is overseeing cleanup on the federal governments portion.

NASA is one of three government agencies responsible for cleanup at the field lab, with the U.S. Department of Energy and the Department of Toxic Substances Control overseeing Boeings portion of the site.

Peter Zorba, SSFL project manager, said the demolition is a very complex process.

NASA isnt the only one doing demolition on the site, but were coordinating with the community and taking their concerns into account, he said, adding that NASA has held community meetings to give updates on the progress.
