University of Berkley in California reports that rainwater in San Francisco water has now been detected at levels 18,100% above federal drinking water standards.
This comes despite countless reassurances that no harmful levels of radiation from the Japan nuclear fallout would hit the U.S. from the EPA (Environmental Protection Agency). infowars.com
Again, with just about all other news of the radiation hitting the U.S., the news is once again reported to the public over a week after it was first detected. infowars.com
Iodine-131 was measured in a rainwater sample taken on the roof of Etcheverry Hall on UC Berkeley campus, March 23, 2011 from 9:06-18:00 PDT. The 3 Liters of rainwater collected contained 134 Becquerels of Iodine for an average of 20.1 Becquerel per liter, which equates to 543 Picocuries per liter. infowars.com
The report however still contains a lie – that there is no radiation in the drinking water – while the original University of Berkeley study clearly detected radiation in the drinking water. blog.alexanderhiggins.com
The University of Berkeley also detected radiation in milk bought off local store shelves and in the drinking water taken from a tap water sample from a sink in Etcheverry Hall, UC Berkeley campus. blog.alexanderhiggins.com
The tap water sample contained 0.024 ± 0.014 Becquerels per liter which is must lower than the latest rainwater samples. Milk samples also contained radiation which again is lower than the rainwater samples. blog.alexanderhiggins.com
The following are results for tap water samples taken from a sink in Etcheverry Hall, UC Berkeley campus. The only isotope we have detected besides background is I-131, at low significance: 0.024 ± 0.014 Becquerels per liter. This level is much lower than our rain water measurements by a factor of approximately 500, and lower than our milk measurement by a factor of 3. www.nuc.berkeley.edu
Three weeks after the Fukushima nuclear power plant began spewing radiation into the world's air; the U.S. government has still not published any official data on nuclear fallout from the Fukushima meltdown. The amount of iodine-131 or other radioactive elements that have fallen as precipitation or made their way into milk supplies or drinking water has not yet been fully revealed. Scientists say an absence of federal data on the issue is hampering efforts to develop strategies for preventing radioactive isotopes from contaminating the nation's food and water.
