SHANNON DININNY 11/17/10 05:36 PM ET AP

This 4-year old news item doesn't cite the exact levels, nor standards. Most 'lethal limit' standards, however, are for exposures of a few minutes to about half an hour...and most persons working there (and all the animals) spend between 8 - 24 hours there per day. There are levels of radiation that can kill in a minute or less......but likely not at Hanford now...but this seems to be an only slightly less lethal level...and a 'radiation suit' would only provide some minor protection from Alpha particles, not from ANY gamma radiation, and only from a little of beta radiation. They pay well for those who work there..and they should...as they likely won't live long and their children will have birth defects...already many do!
