MOhemp Energy: Hemp for Income and Soil Remediation of Nuclear Waste in Bridgeton Missouri and the Cold Water Creek area of the St. Louis Region

MOhemp Energy: Hemp for Income and Soil Remediation of Nuclear Waste in Bridgeton Missouri and the Cold Water Creek area of the St. Louis Region

Hemp for Income and Soil Remediation of Nuclear Waste in Bridgeton Missouri and the Cold Water Creek area of the St. Louis Region
During the Manhattan Project Nuclear waste was dumped in a landfill in the StLouis Region. People are getting sick, cancer is rampant, Govt Buildings are being abandoned, babies born with birth defects, the list goes on.

This is an EPA Superfund site that has been neglected for years.

Introduction of Soil Remediation of Nuclear Waste at the Bridgeton Landfill and Cold Water Creek areas with a Natural Solution that will pay for itself from the crop grown, harvested, and sold.

From my research and contacts I am confident that Hemp in combination with a special mushroom can be used as a soil remediation tool that will eliminate the Radiation of the Bridgeton Landfill.

Then after harvesting the Industrial Hemp Plants the core of the hemp plant can be used to retrofit and create energy efficient homes- naturally-dependent on the testing of the end products radiation levels are within acceptable limits. If the end products do not meet this required end use radiation levels, the author has also explored other end uses that are mentioned in the following thesis.

No part of the Industrial Hemp Plant will be wasted. The Hemp Fibers and Hemp Lignin also have uses and options and marketability.

There is an existing demand that could be met. As long as, previously noted in the above paragraph that the radiation levels are within acceptable limits.

The submitter of this proposal has done extensive research in all aspects of Hemp Production, Hemp Harvesting, Hemp Raw Materials, and Hemp End Users that can make this proposed use of the existing landfill not only profitable venture and speculates that in due time the

Radiation Levels of the Bridgeton landfill will be controllable under certain circumstances as it relates to surface and subsurface soil properties.

Specifically the surface of the existing soil to a depth of 8 feet. This is also the area and depth of the soil contaminates that are causing all the health issues associated with nuclear waste that are plaguing the residents of the Bridgeton and Cold Water Creek region.

Author also proposes that all usable parts of the hemp plant be financially exploited and turned into income producing products that will offset much if not all of the costs of growing the Industrial Hemp Plant as well as the processes and equipment needed for the endeavor.

Any and all of the information used in this proposal can be verified and is also used in a startup business plan, the author has been working on and is receiving-high regards from Hemp Industry Professionals in the business.

One of which is on the record as stating: The Hemp Inventions described by the Author could be the "Holy Grail needed in the Hemp Industry".

MOhemp Energy is the planned name of the future business and is a Future Missouri Industrial Hemp Business that provides: Biomass Renewable Energy, Livestock feedstocks, Non Pollution Biodiesel, and Energy Conserving building products. All of which will be grown, harvested and processed in Missouri with end product sales geared to other Missouri Businesses.

The Vision Statement of MOhemp Energy: This document describes the creation and operation of a Farm-to-Market Enterprise based on the cultivation and sale of hemp-based products. That can be grown for income and to reduce the contaminants of the nuclear waste left over from the Manhattan Project that still plague the residents in the St Louis Region.

The quote by Paul Harvey- "...it all starts with a Farmer..." Holds true in this business.

The author of this document was prepared by a Resident of Missouri with established connections in the Farming Community, Construction and Suppliers as well as End users for the Hemp-based products. This thesis and partial business plant is geared-towards and reflects: a Missouri Hemp-based Enterprise.

MOhemp Energy is not trying to reinvent the wheel with the planned business. MOhemp Energy is adopting the proven procedures and machinery that Canada, China and other European Countries have been utilizing in their Hemp-based businesses.

Supporting Documents, reports, case studies, Agricultural data, etc are available for viewing and discussion or anything else mentioned in this document as it relates to growing hemp in Missouri and the establishment of a Hemp-based Enterprise feel free to speak directly with the author.

I'll be adding financials to go with this proposal as well as the most current information as I mention in the proposal from my European Hemp Industry Expert as well as his studies data and findings.

We can also create a few jobs as long as we know that everyone is safe from the rads.

This venture venture will pay for itself. I am 100% sure that I can get the Hemp Planted to Market- on its own with a ROI in 5-10 yrs. {as long as the rad levels in the end products are within acceptable limits}

What I'm not sure of is:
Testing, Health Risks to Workers, Proper Working Attire, Regulations, etc.

My personal Chemical Experience comes from while I was in the Army. It was SOP for everyone to go thru Chemical attack and safety procedures with chemical suits and masks, part of the training takes place inside a building named The Gas Chamber.

I'm sure the needed training, equipment suggestions, and miscellaneous procedures are easily accessible via the people on the ground now who are working and monitoring the Landfill now.

In many of the photos I've seen; the workers are in normal construction attire and working around existing construction machines.

Of course I have questions and will Partner and Consult with all Parties Involved on a Daily Basis.

I'm bringing you a solution that has worked elsewhere in the world. Just because it's never been done in the USA does not mean it does not work or isn't effective.

Please take the time as you go thru the document. I've done my best to present this information in a manner that is easily understood by anyone. I can provide additional details on anything I've mentioned if there are any questions. If for some reason that I don't have an answer I have the Hemp connections to go to for anything answer that is needed.

I will be posting more info and financials to go with this proposal in the coming week.  Scotty 12/6/2015 9:42 pm

Renewable Energy fills Tank vacated by Oil Industry

Motely Fools are Foolish-here is why

I realize this is a oil industry story and the writers promote and own stock in the oil industry but I feel actions mentioned by Motely Fool and their latest article: Crude Price Crash Could Drill a 19 Million-Barrel Hole in Future Supplies.   Is another example of where renewable energy will fill the gap that dirty oil is unable to fill.


Another Example where Renewable Energy fills Tank 


The article states that future oil supplies are in jeopardy because of the lack of drilling ventures being pursued around the world at the present.  Motley Fool implies that due to feasibility issues are the driving force behind the lack of drilling ventures being pursued-regardless of location whether its deep water drilling, tar sand mining, or drilling on land.  Will leave the future world in short supply.


They state that all the big names in the dirty oil business have cancelled or postponed future wells.  Who would have envisioned (Exon, Total, TPH, Statoil) from not continuing the business as usual of harvesting the polluting the World with the dirty oil they take out of the earth.

Using Friday 11.27.2015 NYMEX oil price for January delivery of $41.71 per barrel.  I calculate that 19 million barrels at $41.71 equals close to 800 trillion dollars that dirty oil will not have  [(19,000,000,000 barrels) x ($41.71 NYMEX per barrel)= $792,490,000,000].

The Motely Fools are Foolish

They failed to consider and I don't think they had the forethought to consider how Renewable and Sustainable Energy is primed and will be ready to meet this demand left by the supposed lack of oil reserves.

This is great news for both the Climate of the World and the Future of the Renewable Energy business such as biodiesel, solar, wind, hydrogen, and electricity storage companies.

I'm sure that Tesla Motors is licking their chops at the chance to meet the upcoming demand.

          The Oil Industry and their future in the energy 
business is in serious jeopardy. 
At long last mankind will loosened from the poisonous grip the dirty oil industry has had on the world since the dawn of the industrial age.   
The biggest question is will it be done in time to avoid the devastating effects of climate change.






Intelligent Energy’s CEO, Henri Winand, has today welcomed a landmark declaration, announced at the COP21 Climate Change Conference in Paris, which sees a range of global actors from large companies to international organisations committing to increasing the adoption of electric and hydrogen vehicle technology in order to drastically reduce emissions and slow the rate of global warming.


The Paris Declaration on Electro-Mobility and Climate Change & Call to Action brings together individual and collective commitments to increase electro-mobility to levels compatible with a less-than 2-degree pathway. It builds on current successful experiences worldwide and the converging interest of all transport modes for hybrid/electric solutions.

Partners to the Declaration (see table below) commit to broaden their efforts and call for a decisive joint effort towards sustainable transport electrification – including that at least 20% of all road vehicles (cars, 2 and 3-wheelers, trucks, buses and others) are to be electrically powered by 2030.

COP21 StLouis Climate March at the Arch

Here are my 10 biggest takeaways from the #OursToLose Climate March at the Arch in StLouis. In which I was proud participant in last Sunday at the Arch.


The gathering of like minded individuals was an eye opening experience for me to say the least.

#OursToLose Climate March at the Arch in StLouis

I learned in the brief correspondence while talking to the other participants that:

  1. There were as many older generations ages- 50 plus, as younger generations of less than 30 years old- that care about the health of our Planet and Pollution that is causing world wide climate change from the business as usual approach of the Big Business Polluting Machines 
  2. The participants were interested and knowledgeable to the importance of Energy Conservation as well as generating True Clean Energy

  3. Climate March #OursToLose StLouis Participants are not happy with the local activities of the Dirty Coal Machine Ameren UE.

  4. Some of the local Solar Installation Companies in StLouis are not adequately trained in the proper ways of installing Solar Racking on challenging roofs

  5. Pointing our finger at other countries such as China who is a big polluter, does not help at the Local Level.  I firmly believe that society as a whole needs to: Chop Wood and Carry Water- mankind must not point to another country without taking care of business at home
    Don't be Fooled by the Dirty Coal Plant Misleading Dirty Coal Image Labadie Power Plant
  6. It was great to see a #BlackLivesMatter supporter at the march!  Climate Change affects everyone regardless of Race, Creed, or Community Status- we are all in this together

  7. People that live around the Labadie Dirty Coal Plant are worried about their Personal and Families Health from the Pollution via the noted 4th Dirtiest Coal Plant in the Entire USA.

  8. The boundary line between my activities and what I'm doing needs to be broken in relation to networking with other clean energy and energy conservation promoters and businesses in the St Louis region.  We are all in this together and their is plenty of work and buildings in the StLouis region for everyone.  I personally need to extend the Olive Branch to others in the region to lend my support for their activities as well as letting them know of what I am working on.  I believe in action over inaction and start by listing the information from 2 of the companies working in the area right here that were also proud participants at the #COP21 #OursToLose StLouis Climate March.  Please check out their websites and to give them a call: Aaron Michel Energy Resources Group, inc and Brian Ettling Climate Change Communicator 
    Just like a giant fishbowl with rising tides climate change affects everyone
  9. You will meet some of the nicest people at Social Gatherings and as it was pointed out you can even find love and meet the person of your dreams! 
    Love was in the Air COP21 Climate March at the Arch StLouis MO
  10. I believe to put up or shut up.  And to prove this I will be offering rock bottom prices on any energy conservation activities I will be doing for my StLouis neighbors.  I am going to cut the prices of any and all activities for the remainder of the 2015.  I'm sure this will make the bookkeeper cringe but I will offer a 50% labor discount on any and all green building projects that I bid on for the remainder of the year.

We can build a green St Louis- Join Me in making the world and our region a better place for all.

MOhemp Energy: Wanted StLouis Grad Student Paper Study

On the advice of a Florida Hemp Business that I have been in contact with about theremediation of the nuclear waste at the Bridgeton Landfill that is causing adverse health issues to the people living and working in the area. 

It was suggested to find a St Louis Grad Student that would take on this enormous task of writing a paper and or conducting a study on the possible ways to remediate the affected areas of the Manhattan Projects Nuclear Waste.

Here are 2 email replies I've received recently and what has prompted me to send this request to the World.

I've been following whats going on I believe I have a possible solution to removing the radiation.  I have contacted a few of the greater minds who have been using Hemp for many things and have been getting a little feedback here is 2 of the latest emails.

  1. As it grows, hemp absorbs heavy metals including radioactive ones and pushes them into its leaves.  If you run a harvester over the plant tops, you can collect the leaves and sequester them.  You will have a large volume of material which must be dried to reduce the volume.  Then it must be bagged/baled for disposal.  I recommend a metal smelter for that.  For this work, the hemp need not grow longer than 75 days and you might get two crops a year.  Winter hemp has been done, but it is dormant in the winter.  Hard freeze kills hemp.
    The stalks might not be very contaminated and might be suitable for animal bedding or hempcrete so you might get something to pay for the work.  It must be studied to be sure.
    Any coal-fired power plant produces radioactive fly-ash so it may be possible to send material there.  Fly-ash containment ponds are radioactive, probably no more so than your leaves.
    Hemp is being used in this way at Chernobyl to remove radioactive Cesium from the topsoil.  Fukushima is said to be studying the method for their solution too.  Notice that both of these are dealing with surface pollution, not buried pollution.  The method could remove any toxins or heavy metals.
    Hemp roots go down 2 feet, sometimes as much as 8 feet.  Below that level, I doubt the method would help.  You would have to study the root depth in your cultivar and soils.
    Paul Stamets is a noted mycobiologist (studies mushrooms).  His book, “Mycelium Running” available on Amazon describes in chapter 7 “Mycoremediation” how mushrooms do much the same thing so you might combine the two methods.  Use hemp to draw it up and use mushrooms to consolidate it from the dried leaf material.
    Paul’s book also describes Mycofiltration in Chapter 5 where he cleaned up a stream runoff, but that was manure.
    It depends on  how deep your material is, but you could concentrate on some water run-off from the land-fill or leachate pumped to a bed of hemp core bedding and mushrooms.
    I am sure some graduate student would love to do that project.
    The Federal Farm Bill of 2014 only allows “research farming” of hemp, but this is clearly a research project of many years’ duration.  I suggest you work with your department of agriculture and its research stations.  Sounds like the feds should pay for it anyway.
    This BTW, is a serious problem at Federal labs at Hanford, Oak Ridge and South Carolina so you might find some help there.
    Good luck in your efforts.

  1. Thank you for reaching out. You are definitely on the right path as hemp has so many benefits. Growing Industrial hemp does help purify the earth it’s grown in.
