[Greenbuilding] Have Your Children Received Their Daily Flouride & Polonium Dose?

Tue Apr 21 18:43:27 CDT 2015

To all: Did you know In the late 1960s, a clever EPA chemist (Ervin Bellack) created the ideal solution to a monumental radioactive-pollution problem by recognizing that concentrated "scrubber liquor" was also contaminated by fluoride (~19%); making it an ideal water fluoridation agent? Did you also know the other 81% contained radioactive waste that would have to be transported from Florida's uranium mines in Bone Valley to Yucca Mountain, which President Bush opened when he took office and President Obama closed when he took office? Mr. Bellack was hailed by another clever EPA official, Rebecca Hammer, EPA Office of Water Deputy Administrator as follows: "In regard to the use of fluosilicic (fluorosilicic) acid as a source of fluoride for fluoridation, this agency regards such use as an ideal environmental solution to a long-standing problem. By recovering by-product fluosilicic acid from fertilizer manufacturing, water and air pollution are minimized, and water utilities have a low-cost source of fluoride available to them." [References are provided in my email to Congressman Zeldin @  www.gfxtechnology.com/Zeldin.html, which you may want to forward to your State & Federal Representatives]        Did you know few water companies test for Rn-220, R-222, Po-210, Po-212, Po-213, Po-214, Po-215, Po-216 & Po-218 even though the EPA requires such testing -except for the most common Rn-222?[See Attachment A: List of
Man-made and Naturally-Occurring Radionuclides addressed by 15 pCi/L gross alpha particle activity MCL standard;
EPA Directive no. 9283.1-14: Use of Uranium Drinking Water Standards under 40
CFR 141 and 40 CFR 192 as Remediation Goals for Groundwater at CERCLA sites @ http://www.epa.gov/superfund/health/contaminants/radiation/pdfs/9283_1_14.pdf.]   Did you know EPA-funded field tests from 1981 to
1989 on 121 GAC systems in 12 states concluded: “Many of these GAC
units will not produce a treated water Rn level below the new proposed levels
of 200 to 2,000 pCi/L”? [“Radon
Removal by POE GAC Systems:
Design, Performance, and Cost”, Report #EPA/600/S2-90/049, by Jerry D.
Lowry, et al, (January 1991); also @ www.gfxtechnology.com/GAC.pdf]    To solve this problem, instead of mandating aeration systems before GAC systems, the EPA set no MCL for Radon-222 at all. To this day, morons in charge of America's drinking water think it's safe to drink Radon-laden water because there's no EPA of State MCL.      To make matters worse, some States impose ridiculous Radon-action levels ranging from 2,000 pCi/L in New Hampshire to 10,000 pCi/L in North Carolina. At such levels, Rn-222, unless first removed by an aeration system,  dissolved in water exiting a GAC system will regrow Po-218, Pb-214, Bi-214 & Po-214 to deadly levels in a few minutes as illustrated in the graphs @ http://www.gfxtechnology.com/Po.html.What Rn-action level does your state have?

P.S.  The Durridge RAD7 is described @ http://www.durridge.com/products_rad7.shtml. Its SNIFF mode counts P-218 decays and
the Normal mode counts both Po-218 & Po-214, e.g.: 

  Principle of Operation

  Electrostatic collection of alpha-emitters with spectral
  analysis

  Passivated Ion-implanted Planar Silicon detector

  SNIFF mode counts polonium-218 decays

  NORMAL mode counts both polonium 218 and polonium 214 decays

Water-to-Air Radon Transfer Coefficients

The
     following report used a Durridge RAD7 in 18 homes to prove the EPA's
     0.0001 Radon/Air transfer coefficient is too small; by a factor of 3-88: “Radon
     transfer from groundwater used in showers to indoor air”, by
     David S. Vinson, Ted R. Campbell, Avner Vengosh, J. Appl. Geochemistry,
     June 7, 2008 [http://sites.nicholas.duke.edu/avnervengosh/files/2011/08/Radon_in_air.pdf]The
     EPA has no MCL for Radon-222's Beta/Gamma-emitting decay products, but
     NYS' MCL for the most deadly is Pb-210 is 4 mrem/yr. (See NYS Regulations
     Exhibit A of my Polonium Petition to Governor Cuomo @ http://www.gfxtechnology.com/Cuomo.pdf)
     Water
     from many LI wells emit over 3,500 mrem/yr, but have never been closed by
     corrupt politicians; including the current Suffolk County Executive. He
     lies to cover up this problem; even on FACEBOOK as you can verify @ http://www.gfxtechnology.com/Bellone.pdf.
