Borys Kulishenko is part of a generation to have grown up near Chernobyl and found work there since the accident 22 years ago. Now 28, Kulishenko was a small boy when his father was �forced� by the Soviet authorities to move from his job at Russia�s Kursk nuclear plant to work on Chernobyl's water-supply system a year after the accident, he says.
“All the friends I went to school with, all of them went to Chernobyl,” says Kulishenko. His wife works for the new shelter project’s management team in Slavutich, the plant's new service town.
