A single hallway exit sign contains three times more tritium than all the leaked water. No disclosure needed for something as minor as this.

- lostlogin 4y agoHiding problems is what has caused this level of distrust. Disclosure is very much needed.
- c4mpute 4y agoThere is required disclosure, certainly for anything on the INES scale and for lots and lots of things below that. But there will always be some kind of lower limit to the reporting requirements, so things don't get ridiculous. Currently we are at "not allowed to bring anything glow-in-the-dark" into a nuclear facility because the tritium contained therein will light up all alarms and trigger reporting requirements. How much lower should the reporting limit be? "Someone brought a banana for lunch!"? You can certainly measure "elevated levels of radioactivity at 5123456mBq!" there and then claim a coverup because nobody reported it...
- Schroedingersat 4y agoMaybe make them low enough that details of the worst nuclear incedent in the US don't get covered up for 30 years?
