Re: Tritium Contamination Detectors

Mr. Doerr:

We are in the throws of a decommissioning project in which we performing
surveys for tritium contamination.  We are using the Ludlum Model 44-110
tritium detector mentioned by Mr. Norman.  If you consider going that
route, give me a call; I'd be happy to share some information with you on
the operating characteristics of the instrument.

Technical Associates (Robert Goldstein, 818-883-7043) also has a tritium
scanning probe/system.  I have no experience with this system, but I'm sure
they could put you in contact with those who do.

Reg's, 

Shane Brightwell
