US DOE PR on CTBT Verification Monitoring -Reply

[MATTHEW WILLIAMSON <williamson.m@nypa.gov>]

The EML has a global sampling network in place.  There ae 12 sites
throughout the world with "real time" measurements being transmitted
back to the EML; remote atmoshperic sampling system (RAMS).  Other
EML global stations collect samples that are sent back to the EML for
analysis.

Another way to check on atmospheric deposition is through any power
plant's Radiological Environmental Monitoring Program...it just takes a little
longer.
