[ RadSafe ] Fwd: [New post] Florida report showed highest level of Fukushima radioactive material

[Roger Helbig]

This hype seems pretty far fetched.  Guess that the normal
anti-nuclear lying campaign is falling short so they have had to raise
the ante.

Florida report showed highest level of Fukushima radioactive material

by Christina MacPherson

Newly released data shows Florida hit with highest level of
radioactive material from Fukushima measured anywhere in world outside
Japan -- #1 out of more than 1,500 test results -- Total radioactive
iodine was up to 500% of amount reported

 September 27, 2014 Analysis of data from sensitive U.S. monitoring
stations for the Fukushima Dai-ichi nuclear reactor accident, Journal
of Environmental Radioactivity: [A] major nuclear event at the
Fukushima Dai-ichi nuclear power station... resulted in a breach of the
nuclear fuel integrity and release of radioactive fission products to
the environment. Fission products started to arrive in the United
States via atmospheric transport on March 15, 2011... Atmospheric
activity concentrations of 131I reached levels of 3 x 10^-2 Bq/m³
[30,592 microBq/m³] in Melbourne, FL. The noble gas 133Xe reached
atmospheric activity concentrations in Ashland, KS of 17 Bq/m³... [These
levels] were well above the detection capability of the radionuclide
monitoring systems within the International Monitoring System [IMS] of
the Comprehensive Nuclear-Test-Ban Treaty [CTBTO]... it should be noted
that non-IMS stations located in Richland, WA detected the event one
day earlier than any other systems within the US IMS network... The
iodine detections reported in this manuscript are solely
representative of the particulate iodine atmospheric activity
concentration. It is recognized that the gas phase iodine was not
collected via aerosol filtration [which] would be useful to assess the
event and to quantify the total radioiodine atmospheric activity
concentration.

According to remarks included with CTBTO data recently released by the
United Nations Scientific Committee on the Effects of Atomic
Radiation, the total iodine-131 in the air was up to 500% of the
amount shown.
