Radiation is all around us in the world.It is in the air, in food and water.It is in our homes and in our bodies.This is background radiation.
Man-made radiation is used by doctors and dentists in the form of X-rays and gamma rays.How much radiation do you get in these ways?It is commonly measured in"millirems." Americans get from 100 to 200 millirems a year from background sources.Man.made sources add about 90 more.Here are some of the amounts you might get.o Living for a year in a city like Denver that has a high altitude-about 180 millirems o Taking a plane flight from coast to coast-about 3 millirems o Watching color TV for one hour a day for a year-about 1 millirem o Living for a year close to a nuclear power plant-less than 1 millirem Can radiation be harmful?Yes, that's why public health experts say you should get as little as you can.That means you need to avoid the radiation that could come from a nuclear accident.The counties of Chatham, Harnett, Lee, and Wake, and the State of North Carolina have set up the plan in this booklet to protect you if that should happen.Could a nuclear plant blow up?No.A nuclear plant is not like a bomb.It cannot explode.How could you be exposed to radiation in an accident at the plant?Radioactive material could get into the air and water, causing a risk to your health if you live near the Harris plant.You could then be exposed to it in three ways.o By radiation in the air and on the ground.Exposure will stop if you go to a place with no radiation.
o By radiation on hair, skin, and clothes.Exposure will stop if you wash the radiation off.o From breathing or swallowing radioactive material.Exposure will stop when one of two things happens to the material:-it stops giving off radiation-your body eliminates it How can you know how harmful the radiation will be to you?It depends on these things: o The type you get o The amount you get o The length of time you are exposed o The amount of your body that is exposed o The amount of radioactive material you breathe or take into your body The higher the level of radiation and the longer you are exposed to it, the greater the harm will be.High levels of radiation are harmful to health and may threaten your life.That is why state and local officials have made this emergency plan.You are not safe to stay outside while air with radioactive material passes over you.Taking shelter is the safest thing you can do until the wind carries the radioactive material away.
