Radon Testing at Radford Army Ammunition Plant
Radon testing of buildings in all geological areas of Radford Army Ammunition Plant showed only 11 buildings of the 511 tested had radon levels greater than 4.0 picocuries per liter of air (4.0 pCi/1). Alpha track monitors were used for 3-month screen tests of these buildings. Any buildings having a radon content greater than 4.0 pCi/1 were tested for 12-months. Mitigation by air dilution reduced the radon content in 10 buildings to less than 4.0 pCi/1. Ducts are being installed in the 11th building to also reduce the radon content by air dilution.
