Episode Three: The Naval Radiological Defense Laboratory
A lot was happening in the world when the Naval Radiological Defense Laboratory operated at the Hunters Point Naval Shipyard. The lab handled radioactive material and studied cleanup methods as part of its work. It also ran studies that exposed animals and humans to small amounts of radiation.
This audio series was created and reported by Rebecca Bowe. It was originally commissioned and produced by the nonprofit news
organization San Francisco Public Press as part of an upcoming audio and text series called “Exposed,” with editing by Michael Stoll; archival, audio and photographic research by Chris Roberts and Stacey Carter; engineering and sound design by Mel Baker; fact-checking by Ambika Kandasamy and support from the Fund for Environmental Journalism and the California Endowment. “Sandblasted at the Shipyard” had additional audio engineering and sound design by Jacob Nasim, with support from the Breathe Network for Racial, Environmental and Climate Justice.
