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. Army Strategic Communications Center (STRATCOM)facilities (F&S No.
27007) will be used.
This facility is designated a BACKGROUND radiological surveillance station as
it is in a remote location trom the test area and requires 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. Provisional Army Signal Unit personnel from
STRATCOM will operate the radiological equipment.
