Noel,
We, too, saw elevated gross beta readings around that time, although nothing
like the magnitude you mention. Our readings for October 18 - 25 were on the
order of 2.4 - 2.5 E-2 pCi/m3. That's approximately 2 times normal for this
area.

Dear Radsafe administrator,
I wopuld like to post the following message but have not been able
to do so. Please healp.
SUBJECT: Tokai fallout detection in Southern California
We at San Onofre Nuclear Generating Station (San Clemente CA) have
noted that the gross beta activity from our environmental particulate
air samples is elevated for the collection period ending October 26,
1999. The values average 6.4e-2 pci/m3. This week has the highest
average and the highest single gross beta reading since June 1986 when
we were seeing fallout from Chernobyl. The lag time from the
Tokaimura accident (~ 3 weeks) is consistent with the fallout lag time
from the Chinese weapons tests in the early 80's and from the
Chernobyl accident.
Has another member seen elevated radiological enviornmental monitoring
data from this time frame? hansenna@songs.sce.com Noel Hansen (949)
