Carlsbad Current-Argus,
Feb. 19, 2014: Traces of radiation have been found approximately half a
mile northwest of the Waste Isolation Pilot Plant [...] Tests by the
Carlsbad Environmental Monitoring and Research Center [...] showed
evidence of trace amounts of americium and plutonium on an air filter
Wednesday afternoon [...] [CEMRC director Russell] Hardy said even
though trace amounts of radiation were detected between Tuesday and
Sunday, it’s important to note that radiation levels have been “very low
and are well below any level of public and environmental hazard.”
