ARMS: radiological survey of the area surrounding the Peach Bottom Atomic Power Station, Peach Bottom, Pennsylvania. Date of survey: 5, 7, 9, 11 August 1969. Technical report No. L-1107
The Aerial Radiological Measuring System (ARMS) was used to survey the area surrounding the Peach Bottom Atomic Power Station during August 1969. The survey measured terrestrial background gamma radiation. A high-sensitivity detection system collected gamma-ray spectral and gross-count data. The data were then computer processed into a map of an 800 square mile area showing isoexposure contours three feet above the ground. Exposure rates and isotopes identified are consistent with normal terrestrial background radiation. (auth)
