most recently posted for 4/8/11 for samples collected over a week ago.

390 pCi/m3 for iodine

Can you also explain how to correlate pCi/Li to pCi/m3 ?

Is there a way to compare or does this look like an error on the EPA's part (they switched their method of reporting results so it is hard to comare for a layperson like me)

any idea when your rain measurments will be up?

Thanks so much. That number does not look anywhere near as scary. (still too much for my taste as a parent but not as bad as I thought it looked)

cool. thanks.

My level of anxiety will really be determined by the results. I am expecting them to be reduced substantially but if they are not or if they are increased, I will not be a happy organic farmer. (Or camper)

Enjoy the weekend!

as an herbalist of sorts I would just add that hops (in beer) can reduce the risk of prostate cancer which is a typical result of too much exposure to radionuclides from nuke plants. Salud!
