AERIAL RADIOLOGICAL MEASURING SURVEY OF THE AREA SURROUNDING THE ENRICO FERMI ATOMIC POWER PLANT, MONROE, MICHIGAN SEPTEMBER 1970

摘要

The Aerial Radiological Measuring System (ARMS) was used to survey the Enrico Fermi Atomic Power Plant and surrounding area during September 1970. The survey measured terrestrial background gamma radiation and included a plume track of the stack release gases.nA high-sensitivity detection system collected gamma-ray spectral and gross-count data. The data were then computer processed into a map of a 277 square mile area showing isoexposure contours three feet above the ground. Results indicated the presence of isotopes normally found in the background radiation throughout the United States. The plume track revealed no radiation above background levels.
