Re: Environmental TLDs

This from Joel White, our Technical Director and former environmental
assayist of California wines:

Please pass on this info:  A company called Kapak in Michigan does sell a
gas or moisture impermeable plastic bag I have used for environmental
dosimeters. The dosimeters were heat sealed in one bag, then placed in a
second larger bag; the important consideration is to ensure a good seal and
to be sure to make the slot or hole for a tie down ABOVE the heat seal
mark.
This technique works well except for extreme conditions.....like El Nino
storms!
