Radionuclide Concentrations in Honey Bees from Area G at TA-54 during 1998
Description
Honey bees were collected from two colonies located at Los Alamos National Laboratory's Area G, Technical Area 54, and from one control (background) colony located near Jemez Springs, NM. Samples were analyzed for various radionuclides. Area G sample results from both colonies were higher than the upper (95%) level background concentration for 239,240Pu, 3H, and total uranium. Sample results from one colony were higher than the upper (95%) level background concentration for 238Pu
