“‘It’s not something that we feel is an immediate public health concern,’ said Dean Peterson, county environmental health director. ‘We’re not even close to the point of saying that any of this is from Fukushima.’  Peterson admitted he was ‘befuddled’ as to why radiation levels were higher than normal, but he was skeptical that the Fukushima meltdown could be the cause. He noted that many innocuous items could spike the radiation levels in an area, including red-painted disposable eating utensils.  ‘I honestly think the end result of this is that it’s just higher levels of background radiation,’ he said.  Peterson forwarded the matter to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency.”
