From the AP:

The Environmental Protection Agency and the Food and Drug Administration say that very low levels of radiation have turned up in a sample of milk from Washington state. But federal officials say consumers should not worry.

The FDA said such findings are to be expected in the coming days because of the nuclear crisis in Japan, and that the levels are expected to drop relatively quickly.

Results from a March 25 milk sample taken from Spokane, Wash., show levels of radioactive Iodine-131 that are still 5,000 times below levels of concern set by the FDA, including levels set for infants and children.

The EPA said it is increasing the level of nationwide monitoring of milk, precipitation and drinking water following the crisis at the Japanese nuclear power plant.

    Great website, just discovered you! Liked this story and noticed no comments. I’m commenting on 3-30-2011, It is alarming that milk has been found. Also, yesterday they say one thing and today and tomorrow it will be another. We can’t trust anything they say. People need to wake up and wise up. May god bless each american, and have mercy on all of us on this planet. With four reactors now a major issue, this problem could get worse yet before it gets anywhere near better.
