The monitoring program should be adequately funded to accomplish scientific analysis at the University of Alaska, wherein it will identify and quantify levels of radioisotopes in commercial seafood and subsistence foods. Data should be published on a web site dedicated to that purpose. Section 2. PASSED and APPROVED this 10th day of March 2014. We sell food and already stopped getting anything from ca, or, ak, wa...with that much seafood business at stake, I bet we hear a lot of pushing it and how "safe" it is, but with even worse and more comng I think it's pretty much over we'll just watch it play out.
I agree with that. I have been monitoring the reading the best I can since 2011. The rise in birth defects and sea animals melting and pockets of puss and many other radiation related issues already happening along the coast, we need to monitor this. There has even been reports of 209 radiation level reading detected from the snow storm that lavished through 13 states last winter.
