Environmental survey at the A.A.E.C. Research Establishment, Lucas Heights: results for 1965, 1966 and 1967

Abstract

This report is a supplement to AAEC/E151. Results of the Lucas Heights Biological Survey, December 1959 - December 1964, and gives the results of environmental surveys for 1965, 1966 and 1967. They are tabulated and compared with derived maximum permissible concentrations appropriate to the local environment. Where found, concentrations of radioisotopes attributable to Research Establishment operations were generally at or below one thousandth of these derived maximum permissible concentrations and there is no indication that such operations give rise to any exposure of the local population to radiation.
