No increased radiation so far in Southern California, air quality agency says

No increased levels of radiation have been detected in Southern California since a nuclear power plant was damaged in Japan, the local air quality agency said Thursday.

“As of right now, we have not seen any change in the background levels of radiation,” said Sam Atwood, a spokesman for the South Coast Air Quality Management District.

The agency monitors radiation on behalf of the federal government for the Southern California area at three regional stations.

.... The agency will publish a daily update and provide alerts of any notable changes, Atwood said.

The people there take their jobs very seriously.
