Let's not forget huge amounts of dust from Chernobyl were dropped on North Wales by an inconvenient rainstorm...

Yes that's true, Chernobyl caused quite a bit of contamination over the highlands and they did seem to be very quick to save money by no further monitoring - just have to hope that theres been a suitable level of dilution of the 39 years. Not being flippant - thats literally all we can hope for.

Apparently at the time of the contamination cloud there was consternation across most of the UK nuclear sites as their airborne boundary monitors all started to alarm but without confirmation from individual plant internal monitors, no one had ever considered the possibility of contamination from outside of plants so many health physics people were rushing around plants (sellafield) trying to find a source for the release. I was told it caused a huge panic at the time.

When I worked up at Sellafield there was a couple of winter storms that washed up some mustard gas shells on the shore outside the plant, the local bomb squad were there in no time at all and delat with everything in a very efficient and well practised manner.

Maybe filter feeders are better avoided ? after all they concentrate rather than dilute.
