CRIIRAD - Radiation Testing Independent of State, Industry and Political Parties

There is a BIG difference between nuclear industry related labs, colleges and pro nuclear industry experts who claim to test the environment for radiation and an independent radiation testing lab, such as CRIIRAD.

Watch the video above to learn why and how it is important to have a citizens lab, dedicated to protecting citizens health and long term well being, and not be hyperfocused on protecting the nuclear industry reputation and appearance. To understand the multiple reasons that lead to this conclusion, which requires a lab like this, click on the following link..

CRIIRAD

Since its creation in 1986 CRIIRAD Association has served as a scientific investigative tool, a laboratory specializing in the analysis of radioactivity.

This equipment allows him to control the impact of nuclear facilities, check balances established by the operators or the government departments and to inform the public about the level of contamination of the environment (soil, air, water, products food, consumer goods, building materials ...), etc.

Key features of the laboratory CRIIRAD

Founded: 1986, as a reaction against the misinformation disseminated in France during the Chernobyl disaster

Specificity:

Independent of the state, industry and political parties.

Multidisciplinary approach that allows the laboratory CRIIRAD being masterminded various stages of environmental analysis: design plan of investigation, on-site preparation and sample analysis, writing and publication of the study report.

Services: Analysis of radioactivity (water, soil, food, bio-indicators), measurement of radon in air ambient,radio-ecological assessments, impact studies, expertise and cons-file studies , continuous monitoring of environmental radioactivity , assistance owner, tips on how to measure, sale and rental of survey meters , radar training and radiation protection.

CRIIRAD - HUNDREDS OF RADIATION STUDIES AND 30,000 SAMPLES ANALYZED

Experience: Since 1986, the laboratory CRIIRAD has performed over 30,000 analyzes of radioactivity and hundreds of radio-ecological studies and expert-against both individuals and associations for communities, industry or the courts.

Sponsors: Citizens, local authorities, associations, investigative journalists, industrialists, government services, HSC, courts.

Area of expertise / references : Laboratory CRIIRAD works in the field of measurement of radioactivity in the environment: natural radioactivity, enhanced natural radioactivity, impact of medical practices, impact of the nuclear fuel cycle, the impact of nuclear facilities, nuclear power plants and research activities, radioactive waste management, the impact of nuclear weapons, control of landfills, contaminated land, impact of nuclear disaster: Fukushima and Chernobyl fallout, etc ...).

LAB EQUIPPED FOR SCREENING AND IDENTIFICATION OF SOIL, FOOD, WATER, AIR AND BIO INDICATORS

Means: The laboratory is equipped CRIIRAD for screening and identification of radioactive pollution (soil, food, water, air, bio-indicators).

Quality Control: The laboratory regularly participates in national inter-comparison programs such as (IRSN) and international (IAEA) to verify the reliability of metrology. It has all the amenities required to ASN.

COUNTRIES INVOLVED WITH CRIIRAD

Intervention in France and abroad: Europe (Belgium, Bulgaria, Scotland, Spain, Finland, Italy, Sardinia, Lithuania, Netherlands), Overseas (French Polynesia), Former Soviet Union (Belarus, Ukraine and Russia), Africa (Algeria, Gabon, Malawi, Mali, Namibia, Niger), Asia (Japan), America (USA, Brazil).

CRIIRAD LAB SET UP IN JAPAN

A community/citizen based lab associated with CRIIRAD was set up in Japan, with the assistance of CRIIRAD, in 2011.

NOT ALL LABS ARE EQUAL

Via probie November 18, 2014  "An excellent text on how detectors work and the numerous processes involved in affecting a spectrum, analysis techniques and operating a lab with integrity. While he's retired, his website is also still quite a gem

http://www.gammaspectrometry.co.uk/

I understand not wanting to utilitze another lab's facilities too which is why I learned – not only due to cost but also due to uncertain standards they may have as, (from the book..), a study performed (IAEA 2007) intercompared 327 laboratories and found only 50% had formally validated their method, 18% of the results from accredited labs were judged statisticially not acceptable and for the 64% that were not accredited, that figure rose to 31% of results not acceptable (pg296). Much less time, pain, misunderstanding, misery and expense to be able to be confident in one's own results than it is to question another's error.."

CITIZEN AND COMMUNITY BASED LABS LIKE THIS ARE NEEDED ALL AROUND THE WORLD

Citizen based labs and community based food radiation testing machines are needed in many areas around the world. This organization serves as a role model for how to set one up, and can serve as a contact for anyone interested in pursuing this in their own areas. 

Please help us spread news like this to more people. AGRP cannot do it this alone.

Thanks for your generous and very appreciated support!
