I have written in the past about the French utility company EDF and the problems they have had with welding on nuclear components at the nuclear reactor under construction in Flamanville, France.
Ambient office = 110 nanosieverts per hour
Ambient outside = 102 nanosieverts per hour
Soil exposed to rain water = 102 nanosieverts per hour
The siting and licensing of a nuclear power plant is a lengthy, complicated and expensive process. In the U.S. it can take up to ten years to make all the preparations necessary for the construction of a nuclear power plant. Each nation that utilizes nuclear power has its own licensing process although there has been work on standardizing the process across the globe.
Ambient office = 124 nanosieverts per hour
Ambient outside = 130 nanosieverts per hour
Soil exposed to rain water = 127 nanosieverts per hour
Part 2 of 2 Parts (Please read Part 1 first)
Ambient office = 118 nanosieverts per hour
Ambient outside = 126 nanosieverts per hour
Soil exposed to rain water = 128 nanosieverts per hour
