Norm Buske, Director and Founder: Norm has advanced degrees in physics and oceanography. He conducted non-government, in-field, radiological investigations of American and foreign nuclear weapons facilities since 1983, independently, for Greenpeace, for the Government Accountability Project, and for others. In 1999 he was awarded a unique agreement for access to the Hanford site to conduct independent radiological studies.

Norm conducted all in-field scientific investigations at TRAC and ran TRAC’s in-house spectrometer laboratory. His forte was acquiring crucial data of radiological concern from public lands and waters and then bringing the implications to public attention through mainstream media, 35mm slide shows, and public meetings and hearings.
