Installing a remote radiological monitor at a tunnel entrance

Dade Moeller employee Doug Draper, CHP, installs a radio-linked remote monitor at a tunnel entrance as part of the EPA's Environmental Response Team.

The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is organized into 10 Regions that issue permits, inspect, and assist in response to incidents (releases or spills). EPA has Federal On-Scene Coordinators with the authority to directly supervise an event that is beyond the local or state authorities. The EPA Regions have additional resources to call upon if necessary, including the Environmental Response Team (ERT).

ERT is based at three locations, and, although each has extended capability, each location also has a specialty or focus.
