Did you know the New Hampshire Seacoast is home to an operating nuclear power plant? The Seabrook Station Nuclear Power Plant opened in 1990. Not coincidentally, this was also when C-10 Research and Education Foundation was founded! C-10’s mission is to monitor and advocate for the safety of Seabrook Station in order to protect public health and the environment in New Hampshire, Massachusetts, and beyond. 

For nearly 35 years we have be actively advocating for nuclear safety in our local community. Much of our work focuses on towns within 10 miles of Seabrook Station, an area formally classified as the plant's "Emergency Planning Zone". We operate three key programs that address multiple levels of nuclear safety:

-radiation monitoring

-public outreach and education

-research and advocacy

C-10 Citizen's Radiation Monitoring Network

C-10's network is the only independent real-time radiation monitoring network in the U.S. singularly focused on a nuclear plant. We have 20 monitoring stations across both New Hampshire and Massachusetts, providing minute-by-minute beta and gamma radiation measurements. We also make use of  anemometers at each station to capture meteorological data. Our data is used by the state health agencies, and more recently by the Harvard T. Chan School of Public Health in their research into cancer incidence among those living near nuclear plants.
