Hello there I am completely new to this and new to this form. I have purchased the GQGMC Dash 800 geiger counter. I work for the railroad and I'm working. On a job that takes empty cars to San Onofre nuclear power Plant in San Onofre, California, and the nuclear plant has been decommissioned so they are dissembling the nuclear plant and they are filling the rail cars with material from the nuclear plant and some of the cars have radioactive placard's on the rail cars. I purchased the geiger counter for my personal safety to measure the area and cars when I go there. My geiger counter went crazy the other night and had readings of 1500 CPM 0.98 mR/h & 15.10 uSv/h. Now, according to this little card that comes inside the box of the geiger counter labeled nuclear radiation safety, guide all of those numbers that I just posted in this message are all dangerously high, according to the readings on the geiger counter compared to the safety guidelines. I'm being told by my company I work for along with the nuclear plant people which is actually the Edison power company that these numbers are safe and are within federal guidelines to work around and transport. Can anybody clarify that these are safe levels. Because I have tried to research and figure out. If actually, these numbers are safe or not safe and I guess I'm not smart enough to figure it out in some desperate need of help here. Thank you for any help that you can give me. |
