A report outlining findings of levels of radiation and radioactive materials found in Georgia's environment during 2000 - 2002.

Since 1976, the EPD Environmental Radiation Program has operated extensive radiation monitoring networks at nine facilities in or bordering Georgia. Program staff collect samples of environmental media near nuclear facilities in and surrounding Georgia, and perform laboratory analyses on these samples to determines if radioactive materials are being released into the environment in quantities sufficient to adversely affect the health and safety of the citizens of Georgia. This report provides results from the environmental radiation monitoring performed by the Environmental Radiation Program during calendar years 2000, 2001 and 2002.
