Read our Privacy notice A migrant has died after trying to cross the English Channel in an overloaded boat just a day after another person died attempting the journey Some 15 people were rescued after a boat of around 40 people picked up more migrants on the coast of Gravelines, in northern France Three people were pulled from the water and a group of 12 others on board the dinghy asked to be evacuated from it, the French coastguard said One person was unconscious and was declared dead despite attempts from a medical team to resuscitate them The rest of those rescued were taken to the port of Gravelines and taken care of by onshore emergency services French vessel the Ridens had been tasked with monitoring the overloaded boat after it first left west of the port of Dunkirk at 11.30pm on Wednesday It continues to monitor the boat with around 80 people on board as it travels towards the UK The authority added numerous departures of migrant boats were reported to its surveillance and rescue centre overnight An investigation has been opened by the Dunkirk public prosecutor’s office The death comes after another migrant died after being pulled from the water on Wednesday A rescue operation was launched after reports that a group of people tried to board a dinghy and got into difficulty in the Equihen-Plage area with one suffering from hypothermia while the other was in cardiac arrest and did not survive The French coastguard added that during operations on Wednesday 52 people were rescued including the person who died and three others who were injured Latest Home Office figures show 289 people arrived in the UK after making the journey in five boats on Wednesday taking the provisional total for the year so far to 4,684 Amnesty International UK’s refugee and migrant rights director Steve Valdez-Symonds described the deaths in two days as “deeply shocking” as he called for ministers to engage with their French counterparts on people seeking asylum “The Government must finally confront the fact that years of simply trying to ‘smash gangs’ and ‘stop boats’ without taking some real share of responsibility for people who currently have no safer options is doing no good whatsoever,” he said. “Failing or refusing to co-operate on sharing asylum duties is simply leaving criminal gangs to control and exploit the miserable, sometimes deadly, circumstances that refugees are being left to endure.” A total of four deaths have been recorded by the French coastguard in its rescue operations in the Channel this year. The International Organisation for Migration has reported several more migrant deaths which are believed to be linked to attempts to travel from mainland Europe to the UK this year. Meanwhile Europol said six arrests were made in Germany and Italy over facilitating the smuggling of migrants across the English Channel, in an operation by German and Belgian authorities on Wednesday. Officials also said searches were carried out in 11 locations in Germany and 90 life vests, fuel containers, two firearms and dozens of electronic devices were seized. A Home Office spokesperson said the Government will “stop at nothing” to dismantle business models of people-smuggling gangs who exploit vulnerable people. “We all want to end dangerous small boat crossings, which threaten lives and undermine our border security,” they said.

A migrant sailing in an inflatable boat down a riverway in France shouted “this is for Rishi Sunak” before picking up more people from a beach near Calais and travelling onwards across the English Channel Footage captures a group travelling on a black dinghy before reaching the sea where dozens of migrants waded into the water at Gravelines and pulled themselves onto the crowded boat on Monday morning The departures come just one day after another migrant died attempting the journey to the UK Men, women and young children, some wearing life jackets, could be seen appearing from sand dunes and walking across the beach. Some youngsters were carried on shoulders, but families turned back from the sea as others walked out into the water to be picked up by the inflatable boat. Police patrolled the beach and appeared to approach families before they turned away. Volunteers from refugee charity Utopia 56 were also at the scene and told the PA news agency they deal with emergencies, check the boats at sea are not in trouble, distribute clothes and monitor how police engage with migrants on the beaches. One volunteer, Pablo Eymard-Picollec, said of the families who turned back: “I think a few police officers talked to them and told them to stay on the beach. “As you can see on the boat, it was really, really crowded, so I think they assumed it was too risky for them to go, but we have to speak with them to know for sure the reason they didn’t go today.” It comes as the French coastguard rescued 34 migrants, while one person died, after a “heavily loaded” boat got into difficulty overnight from July 27 to 28. Another Utopia 56 volunteer, who wished not to be named, said they believe it’s more dangerous now as the police have militarised the border. “More and more people are coming in one boat because there is less chance for them to try,” they said. “So there are more people now in one boat than before, there is more risk and things like yesterday.” The charity patrol group said they saw four boats leaving the French coastline on Monday morning. More than 16,000 migrants have made the journey via the English Channel this year so far, with the latest arrivals of 370 people travelling in six boats on Saturday.

and pertinent to what we needed courteous and very helpful during our emotional and challenging time They were so prompt on answering any questions and changing things They were prepared and respected any religious decisions The process was so seamless and made easy in such a high stress situation In the past 2 years Springfield has helped us through the death of my Mother and my Father Their response and help allowed us to focus on the remaining family rather than worrying about details of the funeral and all the notifications that are required upon a death The atmosphere has been nothing but professional during times of grief the staff coached me on the next steps and looked after filling in all the government forms that I needed to sign which took a huge burden off my mind at the time From the time I called to the completion of all the services There was a sense of caring from each staff member I was turning over my Mom to their care and I felt very comfortable with everyone I felt heard and never felt pushed into any decision I have always found the team at Springfield Funeral Home to be VERY caring I have and will continue to recommend them to anyone who asks which funeral home would I suggest they use No other funeral home I have dealt with even comes close to Springfield Funeral Home I was made to feel as if I was the only one they had to serve Everything that was arranged for us was perfect Thank you for making this difficult time a little more acceptable via your staff’s obvious caring and respect I liked the personal treatment given to my mother who is 97 years old I found Springfield employees pleasant and sincere was that the funeral home would help me get through the paperwork need at this time Since this was my first experience (with a funeral home) everything was above and beyond what I expected Thank you to your team for your kindness to me at a very challenging time You have now taken care of both of my parents with professionalism and care Springfield Funeral Home is always professional We appreciate that you have dedicated staff for all needs from planning the service to completing government paperwork I am not sure there was anything you could have done to make a very intense emotional time less stressful Although we hadn’t expected Ken to want a service when he said we needed to have one for us not him Your sincerity and compassion meant everything to us your compassion and professionalism is truly amazing super professional and caring as each guest arrived Keep up the good work that you do as it is such an important service you provide It is still the most difficult time in a person’s life We appreciated the peace of mind that everything was being looked after You provide a wonderful service for people going through a traumatic time The kindness and professionalism shown by the staff at Springfield Funeral Home was exemplary Steam generators are used in pressurised water reactors They act as heat exchangers between the water circulating in the reactor's primary coolant circuit and the water in the secondary circuit that supplies steam to the turbines Their domed lower head is part of the primary circuit and therefore has an important safety role in ensuring cooling water is always available EDF had originally planned to replace all three steam generators at Gravelines 5 during its third 10-year in-service inspection The 10-year inspection is a comprehensive check-up that allows many maintenance operations reloading of fuel and conducting a safety review when the original replacement steam generators were delivered from Areva's Le Creusot facility ahead of the inspection outage discrepancies were found in their manufacturing records The replacement of the components was therefore postponed until this year The unit was eventually allowed to restart in late July 2017 after EDF made repairs to certain tubes within the existing steam generators These repairs involved almost 1800 'sleeves' over the affected tubes These sleeves were deemed strong enough by the French regulator, Autorité de Sûreté Nucléaire to guarantee the tightness of the primary circuit and meet the production standards EDF is now taking delivery of new replacement steam generators for Gravelines 5 one of which arrived by ship at Dunkerque on 13 March The utility said the new components will be installed during the next inspection outage All six 900 MWe units of the Gravelines plant were commissioned between 1980 and 1984 Nathan Graveline was hired as CDFW’s Big Game Program supervisor in March 2019 after spending his entire career in the field as a wildlife biologist Nathan supervises a team of headquarters biologists and research staff who support California’s deer pronghorn and desert bighorn sheep conservation and management programs Nathan spent the previous 11 years as CDFW’s wildlife biologist for Mariposa and Tuolumne counties He joined CDFW full time as a deer biologist in 2001 after working as a seasonal aid for three summers at the Mendota Wildlife Area and later served as a scientific aid for CDFW’s upland game bird and deer programs Nathan was born and raised in Fresno and holds a degree in forestry and wildlife management from Cal Poly San Luis Obispo I think most of our populations are fairly stable There are certainly areas that we are concerned about X9a and X9b – still have not recovered from the harsh winter in 2016 We were hoping to see some recovery there and to potentially increase tags again But the data are just not supporting increasing tags The good news is that we have data to make those kinds of assessments Across what we call our opportunity zones – the A Zone and D zones – things don’t change that much in terms of populations and hunter success We have two species of deer in California – Columbian black-tailed deer on the coast and mule deer in the eastern part of the state We’ve done fecal DNA analysis on black-tailed deer in Marin County and we got population densities that were through the roof as high as 30 deer or more per square kilometer deer hunting is limited in most parts of Marin County and food is available year-round because people have yards with plants that supply a food source And that’s similar to what we see in the Sierra foothill communities more forage and the deer populations tend to be more stable people still have yards that can provide food and water our migratory mule deer herds are subject to every possible environmental condition plus other factors – development human recreation – that can impact habitat corridors and migration It took me a couple of years to get the first one I’ve been consistently deer hunting since then I try to feed my family with venison mostly I think there is some really good hunting out there We have an amazing amount of opportunity in California We have a lot of over-the-counter tags (you can purchase without applying through a lottery) but that also means you have a lot of competition in the field So just thinking outside of the box with tactics is always a good thing We have a lot of wilderness in this state – roadless areas Hunters who are willing to get off the beaten path a little bit can find some quiet out there where they can hunt and potentially be by themselves I don’t think hunters use optics as much as they could especially on the east side and areas that are more open Take advantage of the gear that we have now It used to be that rangefinders would work out to 400 yards Optics in general are better than they used to be There are a lot more long-range rifle options out there today although that takes some practice to become proficient It’s not something you just pick up and do I hunted Zone X12 (Mono County) two years ago with my dad and it was because we would stop and glass We’d get the spotting scope out and just look I was shocked at how many deer we saw from the roads A lot of other hunters were just driving past us – dusting us out They’d complain in the restaurant later that evening that they didn’t see anything I think it’s a matter of changing the way we do things All the quads and mules and side-by-sides that hunters use – you miss a lot of stuff when you use those Habitat is the biggest limiting factor for wildlife But when you have populations that are struggling – for whatever reason maybe the habitat is not optimal – things like disease and predation can prevent those populations from rebounding the deer populations should be able to handle that and you’re going to have cyclical population cycles among predators and prey Maybe the suburban deer issue has shifted some of the balance and lion populations are higher than we might normally see because those lions are now living on the suburban edge the lions can eat goats and sheep – and they do sometimes It’s a possibility and something we might discover as we continue collecting data on mountain lion populations We do know that bears prey on fawns in their summer range and they also steal mountain lion kills Those lions then have to go out and kill more deer than they otherwise would We don’t have any scientific papers published on it as far as I know but we’ve got lots of camera data to support that We’ve had GPS-collared deer that were confirmed lion kills and a bear comes along and steals that deer carcass I think our best option is to work with the land management agencies – BLM the Forest Service – to try and influence the habitat side of things I think we can provide them with data on migration routes so that if they are going to be doing a big project in an area we can use that data to help inform that project and undertake appropriate treatments we need to emphasize the importance of winter range habitat for deer and how we can improve that range We have good relationships with those agencies we can always do a better job of communicating using and sharing the information that we have And then we can control to some level the quality of hunting based on our data and the number of deer tags we issue The general consensus among deer biologists in the state is that the herds cannot sustain the added pressure of hunting during the rut we’d have to reduce tag numbers dramatically you have to issue significantly fewer tags we are looking at the Central Valley river corridors – the Merced River the Tuolumne River-- and some of the national wildlife refuges and our state wildlife areas nearby where we see deer numbers increasing Fish and Wildlife Service is interested in doing some deer population assessments and potentially holding hunts on their land Some of our Merced County wildlife areas – Los Banos North Grasslands – would be good candidates to hold deer hunts – at least youth hunts That would require some regulatory changes to permit deer as a species of take I do a lot of foraging – mushroom hunting and general forest foraging There is a lot that goes into harvesting a deer or an elk or whatever species it is – a lot of time and money and personal effort and all of that honoring that wild animal and turning that wild game into something really special – something more than what you’d do with a chunk of beef – is important Top Photo: Photo Captions: Nathan Graveline with the X12 Zone 3x3 buck he harvested in 2017 with his

the first French power reactor licensed to operate beyond 40 years France’s nuclear safety regulator ASN set the conditions for the continued operation of state-owned power company EDF’s 900 MW reactors beyond 40 years in 2021 It said measures planned by EDF combined with those prescribed by ASN will ensure the safety of the units for a further 10 years of operation The improvements and measures will be applied to each reactor individually during their fourth periodic safety reviews For the periodic safety review of Tricastin-1 which began commercial operation in December 1980 EDF took into account the specifics of the reactor and its site and the results of inspections ASN said the safety improvements planned by EDF were the subject of a public inquiry from 13 January to 14 February EDF operates three pressurised water reactor designs of 900 MW Its 32 operating 900 MW reactors came into commercial operation between 1977 and 1988 and include the oldest units the country’s current nuclear fleet These reactors are in operation at the Blayais Saint-Laurent and Tricastin nuclear power stations Lifetime extensions of existing nuclear plants are a key element of president Emmanuel Macron’s plans for a “rebirth” of France’s nuclear industry France has chosen Penly and Gravelines in northern France and Bugey in eastern France as sites for two new EPR2 reactors each a

cross the English Channel in an overloaded boat just a day after another person died attempting the journey Some 15 people were rescued after a boat of around 40 people picked up more migrants on the coast of Gravelines Three people were pulled from the water and a group of 12 others on board the dinghy asked to be evacuated from it Latest Home Office figures show 289 people arrived in the UK

He fell well short of collecting the necessary signatures But a federal judge said Michigan’s signature requirement is arbitrary and overly burdensome He joins Detroit Today with Stephen Henderson to talk about his campaign “I have found myself watching the two parties drift further and further apart from each other… which has left myself and without a party,” says Graveline “I think a lot of people feel disenfranchised by the two parties that as this drift keeps going further and further apart there’s a lot of people in the middle.” “I think I’m the only candidate in this race who’s had the experience of actually handling those types of large And I think my reputation and my work history shows I do it in an even-handed and fair manner That’s why I think I make a good candidate for this position.” ‘We clearly have to do something,” says Graveline. “We cannot just leave this pipeline exposed on the bottom of the Straits of Mackinac But I don’t think that’s necessarily just going to be the purview of the attorney general to work on.” Democratic attorney general nominee Dana Nessel has said “On my first day, I will file to shut down Enbridge Line 5.” Graveline says it’s not as easy as the attorney general filing to shut down Line 5 by revoking the easement for the pipeline as some environmentalists have argued “I think that’s way too easy of a sound bite,” he says “As soon as you would take that step of trying to remove the easement it would end up in federal court very quickly.” “Whoever the next attorney general is is going to have to work very closely with whoever the next governor is And that’s going to be the solution on Line 5.” Click here for more information about a landmark deal between the state of Michigan and Enbridge regarding Line 5 announced last week “I think that’s one of those issues that the attorney general’s office should stay out of,” says Graveline “My view is the attorney general should be there to enforce the law Tell me what the law is and that’s what we’re going to do.” He says that his personal views on that and other controversial issues don’t matter “I’ve been a prosecutor for 20 years,” he continues “No one once has come into my office and asked me my views about abortion Click on the audio player above to hear the full conversation WDET is a community service of Wayne State University CONTACT Membership Sponsorship Studio Rentals Technical Support Pitch Us a Story Help/FAQ Other Inquiries Shows Podcasts Schedule Listen Live Contests & Giveaways SUPPORT WDET Membership Leadership Circle Car Donations Business Sponsorship Broadcast Partners Program More » INSIDE WDET About Staff Jobs & Internships Public File FCC Applications Please include what you were doing when this page came up and the Cloudflare Ray ID found at the bottom of this page.
