CONSTRUCTION The U. S. Public Health Service (USPHS) will furnish portable
radiological surveillance equipment which requires 1.5 kw, 110 volt, 60 cycle,
single phase electrical power. No building or construction is required as the
U. S. Weather Bureau (USWB) facilities (F&S No. 29005) including communications, will be used.
This facility is designated a BACKGROUND radiological surveillance station as
it is in a remote location from the test area and requires little more than routine
monitoring for purposes of documentation and for maintaining public confidence.
The radiological surveillance activities of this installation include the continuous
monitoring of external radiation levels, and the testing for radionuclide content
of food, air, drinking water and rainfall. USWB personnel will operate the
radiological equipment.
