     Workers in Grand Central Station in NYC are not monitored although 
     some are probably over the occupational monitoring threshold, from the 
     Uranium (and daughter products) in the granite which the station is 
     built with.

     To leave the airlines and go back to the radon thread.  If I place a 
     worker's office in the basement of a thick-walled concrete building 
     that causes his radon exposure to increase over a coworker housed in 
     an above ground wooden building doing the same task, have I given him 
     an occupational dose?  I think not.  Your answer should not be 
     prejudiced because I happen to have HPs at this facility that know of 
     this potential dose.  I could be in any industry.
