Seabrook Station Nuclear Power Plant 

REGIONAL – The toughest question 

Dr. Victor Saouma had to answer at 

a forum last week on the Seabrook 

Station nuclear power plant was “Is it 

safe to operate?” 

“I don’t know!” Saouma said. One 

of the world’s leading experts on the 

problem of alkali-silica reaction (ASR) 

in dams and now nuclear reactors, 

Saouma gave that perplexing answer to a 

crowd of 75 people at the Newburyport 

Public Library. 

The reason for his ambiguity? Even 

the basic testing of the affected concrete 

by Florida-based NextEra has not been 

done, Saouma said. 

The federal Nuclear Regulatory 

Commission’s Atomic Licensing Board 

has agreed to extend NextEra’s license 

to operate the plant, commissioned in 

1990, for another 20 years, until 2050. 

But the NRC also agreed to hold a 

hearing Sept. 24-27 at the Newburyport 

City Hall to review the concerns by the 

By Stewart Lytle, Reporter 

––––––––––––––––– 

watchdog group 

C-10 about the 

plant’s degrading 

concrete. 

ASR is a 

chemical reaction 

between the 

alkalis in Portland 

cement and types 

of silica minerals 

present in some 

aggregates. The 

reaction creates 

a gel, which 

absorbs moisture 

and swells. 

Under certain 

circumstances, the formation of the 

gel can cause expansion and eventually 

cracking in the concrete. 

According to the Slag Cement 

Assn., ASR can cause severe concrete 

deterioration, rendering the concrete 

more susceptible to damage by freezingand-thawing 

or chloride ingress and 

corrosion. 

The association maintained that it is 

very difficult, if not impossible, to halt 

the ASR reaction once it begins. It may 

be possible in some instances to limit 

the ingress of water into the concrete, 

but this will only slow down rather than 

stop the progress of deterioration. 

Seabrook Station is the only nuclear 

plant in the U.S. where ASR is known 

to be happening, but nuclear reactors 

in Canada and Japan have ASR. It is a 

more common problem in dams.

structural engineering at the University

NEWBURYPORT 

— The new Artists 

Shanties opened last 

week with the first two 

vendors, the Rowley 

Clay Studio and Salter’s 

Point Provisions, which 

sells handcrafted salts 

and seasonings and 

other beach-related 

items. 

After a delayed start 

to allow the five colorful 

shanties to be moved 

off of the Waterfront 

Trust land to the 

adjacent Newburyport Redevelopment 

Authority’s acreage, Rowley Clay 

Studio’s Tim McAuliffe and Salter’s 

Point Provisions’ owner Jeannine Selig 

were excited to be selected as the first 

vendors for a new tourist attraction on 

the Merrimack River waterfront. 

“People who come love it,” McAuliffe 

said. “They love the shanties. It’s a great 

idea. It’s great for the town.” 

The shanties, officially known at the 

Newburyport Arts and Culture Shanties 

Project, found a home along the 

Clipper City Rail Trail on the eastern 

side of the waterfront park, close to 

the Harbormaster’s Office and Oldies. 

The shanties, built by Benjamin Becker 

with BLB Custom Homes, were initially 

placed in the middle of the waterfront 

park, a more centrally located spot, but 

they stood partially on the Waterfront 

Trust property. 

Because of a miscommunication, 

the trust had not been asked to let 

the shanties sit on its property, and its 

C 

chairman, Steve Hines, did not think 

M 

waterfront. 

“It’s a beautiful spot,” Selig said of 

where the shanties ended up at the 

eastern end of the boardwalk next to 

the river. 

The vendors decorated the site 

with colorful umbrellas and flowers. 

McAuliffe brought his own music. 

About 30 to 40 customers and 

interested people came during the first 

days the artists were in the shanties. 

They predicted more would stop by on 

the weekend and even more this week 

when they hope the Firehouse Theater, 

which is managing the shanties, has 

bigger signs made. 

“Maybe we could have a banner 

across Water Street,” McAuliffe said. 

The shanties are “so new,” Selig said, 

it will take time and promotion to 

bring people. 

McAuliffe, who teaches pottery at St. 

John’s Preparatory School, works with 

Dale Bryant, whom he replaced after 

she retired from teaching at the school. 

She now focuses full-time teaching at

model shipbuilding? Join us as we present a presentation from the 

Merrimack Valley Ship Model Club on nautical history and building 

models of boats and ships. Several members of the club will discuss 

their areas of expertise in panel discussion. Some of the topics 

covered will include building ships in bottles and the process of 

starting a model from a kit and then building the rest from scratch. 

Massachusetts Citizens Overwhelmingly Oppose Killing Contests 

For the last two years, Powderhorn Outfitters in Hyannis has sponsored 

a coyote killing contest that awards prizes to hunters for killing the largest 

Health & Fitness 

and most accumulative weight of coyotes. The contest lasts for six months 

and there is no limit to the number of coyotes that can be killed. Based 

on the gruesome photos that Powderhorn callously posts on social media, 

it appears that the winner of the 2018-2019 contest killed 21 coyotes. 

Killing contests are barbaric and unsportsmanlike and have been 

banned in Vermont, California, New Mexico and Arizona. As residents 

across the Commonwealth are learning of these heinous killing contests, 

they are calling on Mass Wildlife to ban them. MassWildlife’s mandate is 

to protect and manage the wildlife of the Commonwealth for the use and 

enjoyment of all citizens. As less than 1% of Massachusetts citizens are 

hunters, it is imperative that MassWildlife consider the views and values 

of the majority of the public who are overwhelmingly opposed to killing 

contests. 

Over the next few weeks, MassWildlife will determine if they will 

draft regulations to ban coyote killing contests. Please join me in urging 

MassWildlife (mass.wildlife@mass.gov) to consider the opinions and 

values of the majority and to ban killing contests

Bryant and McAuliffe 

alternate days at the shanty, 

which are open from 11 a.m. to 

6 p.m. 

Selig, who lives in Beverly, 

makes her own sea salt, boiling 

it for days on her stove, then 

bottling it for sale. She is also 

a painter who creates nauticalthemed 

paintings, which are 

also on sale at her shanty. 

“When I heard about (the 

shanties), I was so excited. I 

was even more excited to be 

selected,” Selig said. 

McAuliffe said he is already 

looking forward to coming 

again next summer. At $150 

a week or $250 a week during 

Yankee Homecoming, the fees 

are much cheaper than an art 

fare, where a booth may cost 

$125 a day. 

Firehouse Executive Director 

John Moynihan said of the 

program, “Local artists are 

looking for a lower-rent, lowrisk 

place to showcase their 

work. One of the big roles (of 

the Firehouse) is to promote the 

creativity in the community.” 

of Colorado, Boulder, said he 

does not believe the Atomic 

Licensing Board should have 

granted NextEra a 20-year 

extension until all concerns 

about the degrading concrete 

are answered. 

“There is a mismatch between 

what the scientific community 

knows and what is being done,” 

he said, noting that the NRC 

has spent millions of dollars on 

research, including a $700,000 

grant to him, but it has never 

reviewed the research findings. 

His biggest worry, he said, 

are earthquakes and how the 

concrete would withstand 

seismic activity. 

Diane Curran, an attorney for 

C-10, who has litigated nuclear 

regulatory and environmental 

cases for decades, said C-10 

has achieved something rare in 

getting the NRC to hold the 

hearing after it granted the 20- 

year extension. 

“We are at a critical moment. 

NextEra has the burden of 

proving that this program 

they’ve proposed is adequate,” 

Late last year, the Firehouse 

was awarded a $30,000 

grant from the Essex County 

Community Foundation’s 

Creative County Initiative to 

create the artist shanty program. 

They are similar to ones on the 

busy Hyannis waterfront where 

more than 90 artists participate 

in the artist colony. 

“These colorful structures 

will enhance our waterfront, 

attracting visitors to the 

boardwalk where they can 

enjoy a stroll and the scenery 

and perhaps purchase a special 

item from the juried artists,” 

Mayor Donna Holaday said 

at the announcement of the 

project. 

They were designed to be 

similar to Newburyport’s 

historic clam shacks, which 

once lined the river at Joppa 

Flats. 

The shanties are 8 feet by 6 

feet and will have electricity. 

“I am very excited that the 

city, in partnership with the 

Firehouse Center for the Arts 

and the Creative County 

Initiative will bring the shanty 

project to fruition,” Holaday 

said. 

The shanties are not the 

she told the Newburyport 

library crowd. “This is your 

opportunity. It’s not going to 

come up again.” 

If there were an earthquake 

in southern New Hampshire, 

it could cause the concrete to 

crack, she said. “It could be a 

dangerous situation.” 

Regulators dispute that claim, 

saying that although the ASR 

is getting worse, they believe 

the plant is structurally sound. 

They based their conclusions on 

studies in Texas of concrete that 

imitated Seabrook’s problem. 

Peter Robbins, director of 

nuclear communications for 

NextEra Energy, said that any 

claims or inferences by C-10 or 

Saouma that Seabrook Station is 

not safe are “simply wrong and 

are not supported by facts.” 

In a prepared statement, 

Saouma wrote: “In my expert 

opinion, the manner in which 

NRC staff reviewed and 

accepted NextEra’s testing 

and analysis programs was 

so devoid of scientific rigor 

or independence as to fatally 

undermine the credibility of its 

only new feature along the 

increasingly popular Clipper 

City Rail Trail. 

Don’t be surprised to see 

lobsters, crabs, starfish, sea

“That old underpass tunnel

determinations regarding the 

safety of continuing to operate 

Seabrook in the presence of 

ASR.” 

At a licensing hearing 

earlier this year, dozens of 

International Brotherhood of 

Electrical Workers members 

told regulators they supported 

the continued operation of 

Seabrook because it is a better 

than burning fossil fuels. 

They noted that the 2014 

closure of Vermont Yankee 

Nuclear Plant caused a spike 

in natural gas use in New 

England. Seabrook is about 

twice the size Vermont Yankee 

was. 

Residents, who appeared at 

the hearing in February, are 

not convinced that the plant is 

safe. Massachusetts fisherman 

Jay Gustaferro, a long-time 

anti-nuclear activist, argued 

at the hearing, “It’s turning to 

sand, guys, sand. It’s breaking 

down.”

When the Hampton Beach Comedy Festival comes to the iconic Ashworth by the Sea, 295 Ocean 

Boulevard, from July 25-28, it will be exactly what comedian Jimmy Dunn envisioned when he started 

it 10 years ago. 

“I just wanted to invite my funniest, nicest friends to come enjoy the ocean, do a show, and have some 

laughs,” says Dunn, a Hampton resident who -- since the first festival in 2009 – has starred in a CBS 

sitcom, appeared on Letterman, Conan, and Judd Apatow’s Netflix Series Love, and is currently working 

as a writer on the DIRECTV series Loudermilk. “All of the comedians are funny and they’re also fun to 

hang out with. Some of them come up to go swimming in the afternoon, and then after most shows we 

go to the arcade. Then at the shows, I get to see a lot of friends from around town, and the Ashworth 

is the perfect host. It’s a beautiful place, but also comfortable and very welcoming. People are really nice 

here, and it reminds me of when I was a kid, parking cars out front.” (As a teenager, he was a valet.) 

Among the new faces to join the festival this year is Boston legend Kenny Rogerson, whose industry 

credits include FX’s Rescue Me, Letterman, and the documentary When Stand-up Stood Out. 

The festival is produced by Scamps Comedy, a company headed by fellow comedian Dave Rattigan. 

Dunn hosts every show, which features at least six other comedians. In addition to the lineups, highprofile 

friends such as Juston McKinney often drop in for unannounced guest sets. 

“The audiences are always laid back and lots of fun, and there are always a lot of folks who come 

every year, sometimes to multiple shows,” Rattigan says. “I get calls and emails from comedians and 

agents from all over the country, but this is a different kind of comedy festival. There are no contests 

and nobody comes here to get a TV deal. We’re here for our audience, and maybe to stop at Jimmy’s 

for a steak.” 

Showtime is at 8 p.m. each night, and tickets are $20, available at HamptonBeachComedy/Weebly. 

com, on Facebook at Hampton Beach Comedy Festival, at ScampsComedy.com, or by calling (800) 

838-3006. Tickets will also be sold beginning at 7 p.m. at the door (cash only) on show nights. 

Along with Rogerson, newcomers this year include radio personality/actor Chris Zito (mornings on 

Mix 93-1 and notably in HBO’s Clear History), popular club comics Chris D. and Andrew Della Volpe, 

and newcomer Quin Nehr, who is still in high school. Also, Karen Morgan (who works nationally in 

theaters) will make her return after a multiple-year absence. 

They’ll join old favorites including Kelly MacFarland, Will Noonan (Improper Bostonian’s “Best 

Comedian,” and featured on New England Honda commercials), Mark Riley, Tony V., Dan Boulger, 

Lamont Price (named “Best of Boston” by Boston Magazine) and several more, including many with 

ties to the New Hampshire seacoast. That batch includes national touring act Jim McCue (Hampton), 

Massachusetts’ Funniest Person Carolyn Riley (Newmarket), Steve Scarfo (Raymond), and from 

Massachusetts Jeff Koen (Newburyport), Paul Gilligan (Ipswich) and L.A. resident/Ipswich native TV 

writer and producer Courtney Cronin. 

The lineups for 2019 (listed alphabetically and subject to change) are: 

Thursday, July 25: Dan Boulger, Kelly MacFarland, Jim McCue, Quin Nehr, Heather Peabody, 

Carolyn Plummer, Dave Rattigan, Mike Whitman. 

Friday, July 26: Courtney Cronin, Paul Gilligan, Jeff Koen, Karen Morgan, Tony V., Gus Vivieros. 

Saturday, July 25: Andrew Della Volpe, Will Noonan, Dan Miller, Dave Rattigan, Carolyn Riley, 

Mark Riley, Ken Rogerson, Chris Zito. 

Sunday, July 26: Steve Bjork, Chris D., Dan Crohn, James Dorsey, Lamont Price, Dave Rattigan, 

Steve Scarfo. 

all shows are hosted by Jimmy Dunn, and may feature special guests.

abolitionist! 

On August 11th from 3:00 to 5:00 pm the

The Photography of Mary Barker on Exhibit 

at Rowley Public Library 

The Rowley Public Library is currently hosting the work of Rowley resident Mary Barker, a nautical 

photographer specializing in documenting the restoration of historic wooden boats. Mary’s minimalist 

style in editing and use of natural and existing lighting provide a traditional maritime feel to her photography. 

She is the staff photographer for the 1926 Essex-built Schooner Adventure in Gloucester, 

and her photographs have been featured in Wooden Boat, Marlinspike, and Sea History magazines, the 

2018 Tall Ship Directory, many local brochures, blogs and newspapers, and numerous international 

sailing and maritime FaceBook pages including the British Maritime Museum. Her current display will 

be here through July at the Rowley Public Library, 141 Main Street in Rowley. For more information,

ARIES (March 21 to April 19) Your 

Aries leadership qualities can help 

bring order out of all that confusion, 

whether it’s on the job or in the home. 

But be careful to guide, not goad, others 

into following you. 

TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) 

Applying a more personal view to a 

job-linked issue could help provide 

better insight into those persistent 

problems. Use your keen Taurean logic 

to cut through the double-talk. 

GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) Taking 

some time off could be the best 

way to get through that seemingly 

endless round of demands. You’ll 

return refreshed and ready to tackle 

things from a new perspective. 

CANCER (June 21 to July 22) 

Restoring a sagging professional relationship 

takes a lot of effort. By all 

means, state your position. But also 

make sure you pay close attention to 

the other person’s point of view. 

LEO (July 23 to August 22) A hot 

prospect intrigues the Big Cat, who is 

always on the prowl for a promising 

investment. But be careful that this 

“promise” has a chance of being kept. 

Check it out more carefully. 

VIRGO (August 23 to September 

22) A friend could use some of your 

compassion and concern. If he or she 

doesn’t ask for help, be sure you step 

up and make the first move. Also, 

check out a new career possibility. 

LIBRA (September 23 to October 

22) You might have difficulty getting 

your opinions heard because of all the 

noise being made by the other side. 

But hang in there. Others should line 

up with you once they learn the facts. 

SCORPIO (October 23 to November 

21) Offering to help a colleague is 

commendable. But before you commit 

your time and effort, check to see if 

that person’s situation is all that he or 

she has led you to believe it is. 

SAGITTARIUS (November 22 

to December 21) You soon should 

be seeing positive results from your 

recent efforts on behalf of a family 

member. On another matter, check that 

you have all the facts regarding a job 

assignment. 

CAPRICORN (December 22 to January 

19) Your aspects favor closer family 

relationships this week. Take time for 

visits, whether in person, by phone, by 

mail or in cyberspace. Let them know 

how important they are to you. 

AQUARIUS (January 20 to February 

18) A missed opportunity isn’t always a 

negative. Maybe your instincts are telling 

you not to rush into something you 

“thought” was worthwhile. Make time 

for family this weekend. 

PISCES (February 19 to March 20) 

Your sense of humor helps you get 

through a tricky situation. But some 

stick-in-the-muds might not be so 

willing to make the changes that you 

and others agree are necessary. 

BORN THIS WEEK: You have a 

gift for making everyone you know — 

or even just met — feel important and 

welcome in your life.

Health & Wellness 

BY J. PETER ST. CLAIR, DMD 

This is the final column of 

this series. If you missed any of 

the past segments, you can find 

them at www.thetowncommon. 

com. 

I’ve heard of some new 

cosmetic techniques that 

can improve smiles. Are they 

appropriate for older adults? 

Older adults can benefit from 

many of the options available 

today for improving the look of 

a smile. Your dentist can describe 

and discuss with you the range of 

treatments that would be right 

for you. Part of older adulthood 

is the acceptance of aging and 

the development of realistic 

expectations for appearance. In 

that context, dental treatment 

for older adults can be a healthy 

and adaptive way of maintaining 

dental health and emotional 

well-being. 

Our teeth and mouth play 

a critical role in psychological 

development and well-being 

throughout our lives. Modern 

dentistry has expanded esthetic 

options for people of all ages. 

Coupled with good oral hygiene 

and regular dental visits, cosmetic 

techniques can help improve the 

appearance of your smile. 

According to an AARP study, onethird 

of seniors are lonely. Another 

study revealed that loneliness and 

social isolation can cause increased 

mortality. Yet another study talks about 

cognitive decline and depression. 

It can be a vicious cycle: If we’re 

depressed, we don’t want to go out, 

which makes us more socially isolated, 

which worsens our depression. We 

might not feel valued, especially if 

we’ve recently retired, or we’ve lost 

a spouse and therefore our previous 

Brighter Smiles... 

COMMON ADULT QUESTIONS – PART 4/4 

I’m on a limited, fixed 

income and can’t really afford 

regular dental treatment. Are 

there any resources available to 

help me? 

Even if you cannot pay for 

dental care, you don’t need to 

live without it. Thousands of 

dentists across the country assist 

the elderly on fixed incomes by 

offering their services at reduced 

fees through dental societysponsored 

assistance programs. 

The availability of such aid 

varies from one community 

to another, so call your local 

dental society for information 

about where you can find the 

nearest assistance programs and 

low-cost dental care locations, 

such as public health and dental 

school clinics. Other sources of 

such information are local social 

service organizations. 

What is dentistry doing to 

better serve older adults? 

Dentists are experiencing a 

quiet revolution in their offices 

as the number of older patients 

increases steadily. The profession 

knows that this burgeoning 

population group is wearing 

fewer dentures and is keeping 

natural teeth longer. Also, 

we know that some patients 

in this group require special 

consideration because reduced 

mobility and dexterity may 

make daily oral hygiene difficult. 

In addition, medical conditions 

and impairment are factors that 

dentists take into account for 

Senior Scene 

Breaking the Cycle of Loneliness 

social group, or we don’t know if we’d 

be welcome in new places. 

There are a number of ways to fight 

loneliness, but we have to take the 

steps to break the cycle. It’s up to us. 

The biggest (and sometimes hardest) 

step is to get out of the house. Just 

go. 

Talk to people while you’re out. 

You never know what doors might 

open just saying hello to someone. 

Start a new hobby, ideally one that 

involves others. 

Get off the computer. Many of us 

turn to technology and social media, 

but it’s really not a cure for loneliness, 

which makes us more vulnerable to 

scams. 

Join a group, whether at the senior 

center or library, ideally a group 

certain patients. 

Sometimes, lack of awareness 

about available treatments and 

techniques leads older patients 

to make false assumptions about 

their dental health and tolerate 

conditions such as toothaches, 

bleeding gums and clicking 

dentures. Dentists are gaining 

practical information on how to 

effectively manage the treatment 

needs of older patients. Many 

dental societies have set up 

access programs to assist older 

adults, individuals with physical 

or mental disabilities or indigent 

persons to receive care. 

The dental profession 

is increasingly sensitive to 

the special needs of and the 

importance of dental health in 

the older patient. Older adults 

are more health conscious as a 

group than ever before. Their 

oral health is an important part 

of their overall health and the 

dental profession is committed 

to providing the treatment and 

guidance older adults need to 

maintain it. 

Dr. St. Clair maintains a 

private dental practice in Rowley 

and Newburyport dedicated to 

health-centered family dentistry.

where people have to talk anyway, 

such as a reading group. Take a class. 

Have you tried tai chi? If you knit or 

crochet, investigate those “coffee and 

caps” groups that meet once a week to 

socialize and make hats and mittens 

for kids. 

Do you dance or sing? Square 

dancing is energizing, and choirs are 

uplifting. Volunteering to walk dogs 

at the humane society accomplishes 

two things: you interact with others 

and you train a dog to become a better 

pet for a potential adopter. 

No, you won’t become close pals 

with everyone you meet, but you 

are likely to develop a few quality 

relationships. You just need to take 

the first steps.
