Explain EPA Air Filter results of 19.5 Uranium April 26, 2011 Wichita, Kansas by ACI/M3
How high is this? I do not understand if this is high or not. Obviously any is not good for you and clearly conflicts with this report for the public of a non detect. I simply kept trying a custom search until I obtained these results.
Coal power plants..
One of the largest sources of radioactive Uranium and Thorium in the atmosphere is due to the operation of the coal power plants that provide about 50% of the USA's electric power. Coal has trace amounts of Uranium and Thorium in it, and we burn billions of tons of coal each and every year. So thousands of tons of Uranium and Thorium go up the stacks at coal power plants each year. See the report by scientists at Oak Ridge National Laboratory:

BTW I copied them and Faxed them to media as I was worried they would be eliminated or changed. I knew those non detects were garbage based upon tests during Chernobyl.
Your link doesn't open up
Hmmm......the link you provided doesn't work. But you have the info copied...can you put it on here somehow?

Bump, bump!BRAWM team, can you comment on this? Doesn't look like a non-detect. This is really important to many people! Thanks!!
