Cesium Levels Nearly Double in Northern California Milk
(Jay White) With all the latest economic news, political jargon, and natural disasters, we forget that we still have a dangerous situation on our hands. The fact that radiation is still tainting our food and natural resources is a major dilemma. Below are the latest findings from UCB.
Nuclear Engineering Department At UC Berkeley, September 27, 2011:
Pasteurized, homogenized milk obtained from a San Francisco Bay Area organic dairy
Best By Date of 08/22/2011:
- Cs134 @ 0.047 Becquerels/liter (Bq/L)
- Cs137 @ 0.052 Bq/L
Best By Date of 09/29/2011:
- Cs134 @ 0.080 Bq/L
- Cs137 @ 0.101 Bq/L
Above EPA’s Maximum Contaminant Level
“EPA lumps these gamma and beta emitters together under one collective MCL [Maximum Contaminant Level], so if you’re seeing cesium-137 in your milk or water, the MCL is 3.0 picocuries per liter; if you’re seeing iodine-131, the MCL is 3.0; if you’re seeing cesium-137 and iodine-131, the MCL is still 3.0.” –Forbes.com
The 9/29 milk sample contains a total of 0.181 Bq/L of radioactive cesium (4.9 picocuries per liter), or more than 160% of the EPA’s Maximum Contaminant Level.

I think all you whiney liberal crybabies out in California are getting all worked up over nothing. Everyone with a brain knows that radiation is good for you.In fact,it may even give you super powers. Look at the facts people.
We were promised radiation monitoring results in August. Nothing has been posted on Radnet since June. What is the deal?
