RadDetect ACG1250 Personal Radiation Detector F.A.Q.

Why would I need a RadSense Personal Radiation Detector? The effects of Hurricane Katrina have proven that self-reliance is a necessity for survival of a disaster. In the event of a dirty bomb attack, nuclear reactor accident/attack or nuclear/suitcase bomb detonation, prompt detection of radiation levels in your area by emergency officials is of utmost importance. One would hope that they are in your area with their equipment as quick as possible and that they report this information to the public immediately. Of course, they cannot follow you and your family around with their detectors and tell you if you specifically have retreated to a safe environment away from the radiation. A back-up to the reliance on emergency officials would be the possession of a personal radiation detector to alert you to harmful levels of gamma, beta, fast-neutron and x-ray radiation.

How does it work? A dual-mode sensor. Direct Conversion and High-grade scintillator w/linear photodetector (indirect).

Direct Conversion - When a radioactive photon strikes a depletion region created by reverse bias on the photodiode, it produces a small amount of charge in proportion to the photon's energy. The resulting signal is then amplified and processed by the CPU in the RadDetect™. (Detectors that convert incoming radiation directly into the electrical signal are called direct conversion type detectors)

Indirect Conversion - Incoming radiation is converted by a scintillator material in our indirect conversion type detector, where the radiation energy is first converted into the visible light. The visible light is then captured by the photodiode and converted to an electric signal. The resulting signal is then amplified and processed by the CPU in the RadDetect™.


What types of radiation will it detect? Exposure to gamma, beta, fast-neutron or x-ray radiation of 75 milliRoentgens per hour (mR/hr) is sufficient to trigger the low-level auto-alert. This includes Strontium 90, Cesium-137 and Cobalt-60, commonly available radioactive materials likely used in a dirty bomb (also called a radiological bomb). It will also detect radioactive iodine released from a nuclear reactor accident or fallout from a nuclear bomb.

So it detects Beta radiation? Yes. And of course, this is required for detecting Strontium 90 (possible dirty bomb radiation) and detecting beta emitters from radioactive iodine (I-131) from a nuclear reactor or nuclear bomb. The RadDetect is the only commercially available keychain-style personal radiation detector that detects Beta radiation.

Will it tell me what type of radiation I am being exposed to? Though the RadDetect™ detects gamma, beta, fast-neutron and x-ray radiation, it alerts you only to the presence of radiation, not the specific type of radiation.

How many levels of detection does the RadDetect have? 256 detection levels - Beeping and flashing of the auto-alert occurs at 256 varying rates of speed (similar to a Geiger counter or metal detector). This level of instant preciseness makes the directional feature very easy to use. PLUS - Pressing the gray diagnostic button allows for additional instant analysis of exposure level (low - mid - high).

If the RadDetect instantly alerts me to radiation, what do I do next? Use the unit's directional feature to escape to a safe area: An unmatched benefit of the real-time auto-alert capability of the RadDetect™ is that by holding the unit vertically - with the gray diagnostic button facing you - and slowly turning in a circle, you are able to monitor the real-time increasing/decreasing auto-alert rate (as described above), allowing you to determine the direction from which the radiation is coming. This allows you to move in the other direction away from the radioactive source. It will instantly cease alerting when your radiation exposure reaches a safe level. This feature is possible because the microprocessor samples the air 32,768 times a second and gives you instant feedback of the current radiation levels.

Will the RadDetect tell me from which direction the radioactive source is coming? Yes. It has a directional feature which will guide you away from the radioactive source.

Will it detect a dirty bomb before it detonates? Yes, if the dirty bomb (a.k.a. radiological bomb) is emitting detectable levels of Beta or Gamma radiation (of which it likely would). Of course, the RadDetect would have to be in the vicinity of the dirty bomb to detect the radiation.

What is the detection range? 75mR/hr - 2000R/hr (0.75mSv/hr - 20Sv/hr). This is far greater than other personal radiation detectors.

Are there any devices or appliances that it should be kept away from to prevent damage to the device? No. The RadDetect cannot be damaged by other devices.

Does it detect EMP (electromagnetic pulse) from power lines or microwaves? No. The RadDetect detects radiation, not electromagnetic pulses.

What is its size and weight? 3" x 1.25" and less than an ounce. About the same size and weight as a car's alarm key fob (the keychain unit that unlocks/locks your vehicle's door).

Can I attach it to anything besides a key chain? Yes. You can attach it to a purse, backpack, laptop case, etc. Use of a carabiner is good for this application.

Can I test the unit myself? The unit cannot be tested with any home source. While the RadDetect was specifically designed to only detect natural radioactive sources, it has been configured to report the existence of low-energy x-rays from a dental or veterinarian X-ray machine for demonstration purposes. The X-ray machine must be able to provide continuous rays for more than 1 second. Most modern X-ray machines are configured to be operated for only a fraction of a second, quite possibly a millisecond, so you must manually select a long duration (i.e.: 3 seconds): The RadDetect should be placed as close as possible to the output of the head because most X-ray machines are pulsed. The RadDetect's alarms will trigger soon after the X-ray source is turned on and will cease as soon as they are turn off or removed. Testing should only be done by a person trained to use X-ray machines and ACG Security accepts no responsibility for anyone who attempts to test their RadDetect with a radioactive source.

Will the RadDetect give false alarms due to temperature changes and static electricity like other keychain detectors? No, it won't sound a false alarm. The RadDetect uses the most recent innovations in radiation detection technology and does not use older CDS cell technology like some other commercially available units.

Will the RadDetect function after being subjected to an EMP (electromagnetic pulse)? The RadDetect has been tested and will function like any other small electronic device after being subjected to ground-level EMP and High-altitude EMP (HEMP). The RadDetect was tested with both a Marx Bank Generator and Voltage Gradient Tests up to 145 KeV and exceeds MIL-STD-461D specs. Note: A dirty bomb will not emit an EMP.

How is the RadDetect calibrated? The RadDetect sensor is tested with a small Cesium source and a DSO to ensure disintegrations are detected. Then, the sensor is subjected to low-energy x-ray radiation to determine the sensitivity to a source that would be moderated (a Beta source in a steel jacket for instance). A program, uploaded to the RadDetect through a programmer's port, then sets the threshold levels in the processor. A programmer's port is absolute necessary to accurately calibrate any detector as moderated radiation is easily blocked/attenuated by thick plastic and many other compounds. The RadDetect is tuned to detect the lowest energy level that most other sensors (calibrated with Cesium) cannot detect.

I stock potassium iodide for radiation emergencies. Does the RadDetect detect radioactive iodine from a nuclear reactor release or fallout from a nuclear bomb? Radioactive iodine (I-131) emits beta and weak gamma radiation. Because the RadDetect detects both types of radiation, it will detect radioactive iodine from a nuclear reactor release or nuclear bomb. This is the only keychain style radiation detector that will do so.

How about civil defense meters or Geiger Counters. Won't they work just as well? Geiger Counters max out (report no radioactivity) at rather low levels. These devices are only used by clean-up teams after most of the radioactive fallout has been removed from an area. They are used for final decontamination. Civil Defense Meters are obsolete though they are still being sold by some vendors and still in use in the field today (in some areas). In addition to the lack of linear reporting, these meters' parts are approaching 30 years old - well beyond the component lifetime - are unreliable and have been phased out by most governments including the U.S.

Who would benefit from the use of the RadDetect™? Aside from civilian use for personal protection, the RadDetect is designed for: First responders to radioactive threats; Customs and border patrols; Law Enforcement; Security officers in nuclear power facilities, banks, government laboratories, medical facilities; Military; Government agencies;

Is the RadDetect™ a "one time" use device? No, the RadDetect will continue to function within specifications after being exposed to radiation. The RadDetect contains a real-time alerting mechanism so that its user can find a safe place to move away from the radioactive isotope. Obviously, the unit will not work if it is annihilated by a nuclear blast.

Does the RadDetect™ have an ON/OFF Button? No, the RadDetect radiation detector cannot be turned off unless you remove the battery. The RadDetect was designed to virtually eliminate any possible human error. If the user approaches a dangerous radioactive isotope, the RadDetect will instantly sound an alarm.

Do you have to press the button to make it work? No, the RadDetect scans continuously without user intervention.

What is the function of the button on the RadDetect? If the diagnostic button is quickly pressed and released when the RadDetect is auto-alerting you to the presence of radiation (as described above), the 256 ‘flash and beep’ auto-alert levels will pause momentarily. The red LED light on the front of the RadDetect will then flash at different rates (view chart) to alert you to your current minimal level of radiation exposure measured in Roentgens per hour (R/hr). This LED ‘exposure-level’ alert is flashed each time you press and release the diagnostic button. (No audible alert will be heard). After the release of the button the RadDetect will then revert back to the beeping/flashing auto-alert mode using 256 detection levels.

During normal function (no radiation present) the RadDetect’s functionality can be confirmed by pressing and holding the gray diagnostic button. The microprocessor will illuminate the red LED and will turn it off when the diagnostic button is released. No audible alert will be heard.



What alarm systems does the RadDetect™ have built in? The RadDetect has a flashing red LED light and a 70 dBa audible alert.

Is it safe to put through airport security systems and X-ray package/vehicle scanning equipment, etc.? Yes, it is safe. The RadDetect is tuned to ignore, and cannot be damaged by, artificial radioactive sources like package canners and x-ray equipment used by airport security. It can be used around and near scanning equipment without the hassles of false alarms, and without interfering with the scanning equipment.

Can the battery be replaced in the RadDetect™? The user-replaceable battery is a standard CR2032 lithium coin battery available almost anywhere batteries are sold.

How long does the RadDetect's battery last before replacement is needed? Due to the RadDetect's unique air sampling of 32,768 times each second (this enables the Directional feature and instant alerting feature), the inexpensive user-replaceable battery should last more than 6 months under normal use.

What happens if I put the battery in the wrong way? Although care should always be taken when installing batteries in any electronic device, in the case of the RadDetect it has built-in reverse battery polarity protection.

At what temperature range will the RadDetect™ continue to function? The RadDetect can operate within a temperature range of -22°F to 140°F (-30°C to 60°C).

How can the RadDetect be of assistance to Law Enforcement, Fire/Hazmat & Homeland Security Personnel? The RadDetect is an always-on personal protection, threat detection device. Though its been called a dirty bomb detector or micro bomb detector, it is not limited to the detection of dirty bombs. There is an increasing concern over "orphan" sources, lost or undocumented sources that could be used for malicious purposes. The RadDetect is always working so an officer will be instantly alerted to the presence of a hazardous source within his/her immediate vicinity that is potentially causing physical harm. This allows the officer the opportunity to assess a situation that may otherwise have been completely unknown, since radiation cannot be seen, smelt, felt, or tasted. Fire/Hazmat personnel can also feel safe that they will be warned if walking into an unmarked radioactive area while in the process of their normal duties.

Can the RadDetect be used inside a moving vehicle? Yes, the RadDetect works well inside vehicles. The detection sensitivity of the RadDetect inside a moving vehicle depends on two key factors: The amount of shielding, and the speed at which the source is moving relative to the RadDetect.

How durable is the RadDetect? The RadDetect is water resistant (but you should not submerse it in water), has an outer shell of high-impact ABS, and can withstand an electro-magnetic pulse (EMP) of 145Kev. It should handle most weather conditions its user would experience.

Will the RadDetect ignite a dirty bomb? Absolutely not. Unlike some other radiation detection equipment, our bomb detectors do not internally generate high voltages for their sensors. The maximum potential inside the RadDetect is 3V, and it draws less than 100uA most of the time. It does not create any sparks or RF (radio frequencies) that could ignite a bomb.

How fast do the sensors react? Monitors 24/7 and instantly reports (less than a second) when radiation levels are rising and falling so you know when you are in a safe area.

Where is the RadDetect manufactured? Parts are manufactured in the U.S. and Canada. Final individual testing and calibration is in Canada.

What is the warranty on the RadDetect? 1 year limited warranty. Parts and labor.

What does the warranty not cover? The limited warranty shall not extend to water damage or damage caused or occasioned by exposure of the product to a corrosive environment. Nor shall this warranty extend to physical damage caused by misuse, abuse, or service by anyone other than the manufacturer’s authorized representative, or damaged due to accident or act of God.

How can the RadDetect be calibrated to react to a dental x-ray machine, but not react to an x-ray machine at the airport baggage screening? The airport x-ray screening machines use very short duration pulses and rely on luminescent screens to "hold" the image. This is how film is not destroyed or damaged by airport screening machines but would be destroyed if exposed to a dental unit. A dental x-ray machine is a continuous x-ray generator (at 60Hz) for a specific duration depending on what is being photographed. Even with this method, the RadDetect must be very close to the machine and must be turned on for at least 2 seconds.

Can I silence the alarm during an on-going radiation emergency? If you are in a constant state of radiation exposure and wish to silence the alert, just open the housing and remove the battery. The included manual will instruct you how to easily open the unit.

Radiation Detection Testing Underway at Two Foreign Sea Ports
Release Date: April 11, 2007

Money to be made
PDGT WAKE UP LOL

Interesting read -

For Immediate Release
Office of the Press Secretary
Contact: 202-282-8010
NNSA Public Affairs, 202-586-7371

The departments of Homeland Security (DHS) and Energy (DOE) announced today that operational testing is underway in Honduras and Pakistan to strengthen global supply chain security by scanning shipping containers for nuclear or radiological materials before they are allowed to depart for the United States. The tests represent the initial phase of the Secure Freight Initiative announced Dec. 7, 2006, which involves the deployment of nuclear detection devices to six foreign ports.

“Terrorists and criminals use global shipping networks, and we are deploying multiple layers of advanced technology to counter their tactics,” said Homeland Security Deputy Secretary Michael Jackson. “Secure Freight creates a global nuclear detection network with shippers, carriers and foreign allies, to head off the worst possible form of attack, a nuclear or dirty bomb on our soil. We are deeply grateful to the governments of Honduras and Pakistan, as well as our other Secure Freight Initiative partners, for their strong leadership on this effort.”

“As we continue our partnership with DHS and our international allies, we continue to strengthen our national security. It is through this important work at foreign ports that we improve the overall security of the global maritime shipping network and hinder terrorists from smuggling in a nuclear device or dangerous material into a U.S. port,” said Thomas D'Agostino, DOE National Nuclear Security Administration acting head. “By teaming up with DHS in this important effort, NNSA is helping to bring our extensive overseas nuclear security and detection expertise to strengthen a key layer of our national defense.”

Secure Freight Initiative testing in Puerto Cortes, Honduras, started on April 2, 2007. Tests in Port Qasim, Pakistan, the first port to participate in Secure Freight Initiative, began in March of this year. Four other Secure Freight Initiative ports are expected to initiate tests this year. They are: Southampton in the United Kingdom; Salalah in Oman; Port of Singapore; and the Gamman Terminal at Port Busan in Korea.

Data gathered from overseas scanning of U.S. bound containers will be transmitted in near real-time to U.S. Customs and Border Protection Officers working in overseas ports and to the National Targeting Center. The data will be combined with other risk assessment information to improve analysis, targeting and scrutiny of high-risk containers. All alarms from radiation detection equipment will be resolved locally, and protocols are being developed with host governments that may include instructing carriers not to load a container until the risk is fully resolved.

DHS and DOE, through its National Nuclear Security Administration, will contribute roughly $60 million to the Secure Freight Initiative for the installation of radiation detection devices and communications infrastructure that transmit data back to the United States. DOE will invest approximately $4 million in Puerto Cortes for detection devices and an integrated communications system that links new assets with existing equipment.

Secure Freight Initiative: Vision and Operations Overview
Release Date: December 7, 2006

For Immediate Release
Office of the Press Secretary
Contact: 202-282-8010

I. Our Vision: The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and the Department of Energy (DOE), in cooperation with maritime industry and foreign government partners, are launching Phase I of the Secure Freight Initiative (SFI) to deploy a globally integrated network of radiation detection and container imaging equipment to be operated in seaports worldwide. Our purpose is to prevent terrorists from using nuclear or other radiological materials to attack the global maritime supply chain or using cargo containers to bring the resources for such an attack to the United States.

Our plan is to deploy next-generation tools and integrated systems, along with other proven technologies, to scan maritime container cargo. Phase I of the Secure Freight Initiative will leverage the DOE Megaports Initiative, DHS Container Security Initiative, DHS domestic nuclear detection program, and recent test deployments of relevant technology.

Containers arriving at participating seaports overseas will be scanned with both non-intrusive radiographic imaging and passive radiation detection equipment placed at terminal arrival gates. Optical scanning technology will be used to identify containers and classify them by destination. Relay cargo — containers being moved from one ship to another — would also be inspected with such technology, as adapted in consultation with operators for the transshipment environment. The inspection tools will include the use of enhanced radiological detection technology, which DHS will also begin deploying domestically within the next year.

Sensor and image data gathered regarding containers inbound to the United States will be encrypted and transmitted near real-time to the National Targeting Center operated by DHS's Customs and Border Protection. There, these data will be combined with other available risk assessment data, such as currently required manifest submissions, to improve risk scoring and targeting of high-risk containers for further scrutiny overseas.

If the scanning data indicate concerns, the specific container will be inspected further, based upon appropriate response protocols established with the host government authorities. Participating host governments would have immediate access to all scanning data collected, including any scans conducted on non-U.S. bound containers. All alarms from the radiation detection equipment for any container will be resolved locally. For containers bound for the United States, this can include requesting the host government to open and inspect the container's contents or instructing carriers under existing regulations not to load the container until the risk is fully resolved. Any specific images or scanning data shared with private sector operators will be appropriately protected and restricted.

Our ultimate vision is to create a globally networked array of detection equipment that will be configured to enable real-time streaming of container images and radiological detection data to other countries engaged in maritime trade. This government-to-government data sharing will support stronger and more internationally harmonized risk reduction for global freight movement.

DHS and the DOE acknowledge the important role that will be played by terminal operating companies, ocean carriers and host governments. For Secure Freight to succeed, it must balance enhanced container security with an imperative to facilitate efficient global trade. Our private sector partners will provide indispensable operational experience needed to help strike the appropriate balance.

II. Initial Deployment. DHS and DOE will partner with international terminal operators, ocean carriers and host governments to deploy the equipment utilized in Phase I implementation. We expect to begin operations in this initial Phase of the program in approximately six foreign ports within eighteen months. Based on the lessons learned from the first Phase, a second Phase, with more extensive deployments, will follow.

Founding members of the Secure Freight Initiative include maritime terminal operators and ocean carriers who have pledged to support this effort at facilities they operate overseas. It is anticipated that the governments and ports participating in the initial deployment Phase will be drawn from those currently active in DHS's Container Security Initiative and/or DOE's Megaports Initiative.

III. Secure Freight Program Overview. The overall Secure Freight Initiative will have two core elements, the first of which is described here. In addition, DHS is actively preparing a complementary Secure Freight Initiative: a next-generation risk scoring capability to fuse certain existing, but not currently collected, data associated with a container's movement. Taken as a whole, the two-pronged Secure Freight Initiative will significantly strengthen maritime security and global non-proliferation efforts. Furthermore, its richer pool of container risk data will support more efficient recovery from any attack that might occur.

IV. Partnership Responsibilities. Our purpose in signing this document is to define what we want to accomplish and to lay out a path that immediately puts us to work on achieving these goals. The undersigned parties have mutually embraced the vision and operating framework described in this document.

A. U.S. Government. DHS will take the lead for this initiative, in partnership with DOE and the Department of State (DOS). Specifically:

DHS will establish a Secure Freight Program Office, headed by a director reporting directly to the Commissioner of Customs and Border Protection, to manage the program.
DHS, DOE and DOS will seek effective cooperation with host nations.
DHS and DOE will — at approximately six Phase 1 ports — collectively acquire and deploy passive radiation detection equipment, active non-intrusive imaging systems, and optical character recognition technology to identify containers and classify them by destination prior to loading. Operational details regarding these deployments will, in each case, be established through formal operating agreements among the relevant parties.
DHS will undertake to create a network system whereby Secure Freight scanning inspection data only for containers inbound to the United States will be isolated and transmitted to Customs and Border Protection's data center for analysis.
DHS will analyze the resulting data for the presence or suspected presence of threat materials and report any such concerns to the appropriate host government officials immediately.
DHS will provide terminal operators and ocean carriers appropriate and timely information to facilitate threat resolution.
DHS, DOE and DOS will work with host governments to establish protocols that ensure all radiation alarms are swiftly resolved by the host government at the port of detection.
DHS and DOE will evaluate the effectiveness, efficiency and overall success of the Phase 1 deployments in collaboration with terminal operators, ocean carriers, host governments and other stakeholders prior to the development of Phase 2 deployments.
B. Private Sector Partners. The maritime terminal operating companies, ocean carriers, and others signing below will support Phase I deployment of the Secure Freight Initiative. Subject to the terms of mutually agreeable operating agreements with DHS for Phase I, which will include the right to terminate participation by any party with 30 days written notice, participating terminal operators will:

Designate and make available international terminal facilities for initial deployments, in coordination with local governments and consistent with this operational framework and all applicable laws.
Develop procedures, in coordination with U.S. and host governments, for efficient, timely, and effective processing.
Facilitate container movements necessary for screening, bearing in mind the unique characteristics and resulting potential costs of transshipment ports.
Assign and support training of appropriate personnel.
Limit operational access to security-sensitive data and operations to authorized personnel only.
Cooperate in research, development and deployment efforts towards adaptable, scaleable and flexible systems to inspect maritime containers, consistent withSecure Freight's Phase I, described herein.

DHS will test radiation detectors on West Coast
By Josh Martin, Managing Editor
Published November 20th, 2007

The Department of Homeland Security has selected two West Coast ports to test implementation of a new nuclear detection regime. The program, to be managed by the Domestic Nuclear Detection Office, will provide maritime radiation detection capabilities for state and local authorities in Washington’s Puget Sound and California’s San Diego areas.

Known as the West Coast Maritime Radiation Detection Project, the three-year pilot program involves the development of a radiation detection architecture that reduces the risk of radiological and nuclear threats that could be transported illegally on recreational or small commercial vessels.

The pilot program, which is already underway in Puget Sound, will be conducted in close coordination with the U.S. Coast Guard and Customs and Border Protection.

The program marks the first major effort by the Department of Homeland Security to monitor small craft. According to a DHS spokesperson, small vessels include any watercraft that is less than 300 tons, including commercial fishing and recreational boats, yachts, tow boats and uninspected passenger ships.

Large commercial ships and yachts are already subject to checks under the 2002 Maritime Transportation Security Act. DNDO and other government agencies also have had for a long time nuclear and radiological detection systems installed at major container shipping facilities in several American ports, including Oakland, Los Angeles, Charleston and New York.

Earlier attempts to launch a program to inspect and monitor small craft in the Great Lakes region had prompted withering scorn from local elected officials who charged that such DHS inspections were, as one put it, "excessive, expensive and intrusive."

DNDO Director Vayl Oxford, responding in part to those complaints, pointed out that DHS must consider all threats to citizens and property. "The West Coast Maritime pilot program addresses a potential threat pathway in the maritime domain," he said. "This project reflects the priority that the department has placed on balancing risk against all potential threats."

DNDO anticipates investing roughly $10 million in the West Coast pilot program. The two designated ports will leverage existing federal grant funding to support small vessel radiation detection programs and the procurement of recommended equipment.

This represents a small fraction of the $2 billion DHS has invested in radiation detection systems, most of which have concentrated on containerized freight and airplane monitoring.

However, DNDO expects that this pilot program, if successful, will be expanded to many other ports and marinas around the country.

DNDO expects to deploy non-intrusive, passive detection sensors, such as human-portable radiation detection equipment, mobile sensors and fixed position detectors as part of the Maritime Radiation Detection Project. The goal of the program is to evaluate their efficacy and begin to facilitate the use of such radiation detection equipment by local authorities and maritime partners as part of their routine operations.

DNDO also will be working with maritime partners and local authorities in both areas to assess the geographic configurations of the ports to maximize detection and interdiction opportunities. Additional analyses for local partners will include a baseline survey of the existing radiological and nuclear detection architecture, a gap and risk assessment, and associated recommended actions to be developed in conjunction with maritime stakeholders. Maritime stakeholders will also receive guidance from DNDO on operational protocols, training, and exercises that support small vessel radiation detection capabilities.

However, critics point out that DNDO and the Transportation Security Administration have had mixed success in procuring effective radiation detection equipment. For example, when senior DHS officials recently gathered in Los Angeles to demonstrate yet another new, expensive machine that supposedly can detect nuclear material hidden in shipping containers, they boasted that the device was 95 percent accurate. However, independent appraisals were far less glowing. A government investigation by the Government Accountability Office (GAO) found that the same machines were actually only 45 percent accurate on average (some accuracy ratings were as low as 17 percent). For marina operators and small craft owners, there may be greater concern over what substances can trigger a false positive, raising alarms that could prompt emergency response, complete with police and possible federal agents on heightened alert.

Efforts are now underway to develop a universal code to improve the accuracy of radiation detectors like those that will be tested in the Maritime Radiation Detection Project. Under an Academic Research Initiative grant recently awarded to a team of researchers at the University of California – Berkeley, sponsored by the National Science Foundation and DHS, a five-member team of scientists are examining ways to reduce the false positive incident rates in the next generation of detection technology.

The program, which could run five years and cost $7.1 million, has its work cut out for it. Common substances that can set off radiation detectors include camera lenses, vegetable produce and kitty litter.

Conducting inspections in marinas has also troubled local and national security officials, concerned that resulting congestion could itself raise safety concerns.

"The best time to interdict nuclear materials is at sea, or well removed from our borders," Bill Dunlop of the National Security Office explained.

DHS has also stressed conducting radiation monitoring and testing overseas. Earlier this year, the departments of homeland security and energy launched a test program in Honduras and Pakistan to strengthen global supply chain security by scanning shipping containers for nuclear or radiological materials before they are allowed to depart for the United States. The tests represent the initial phase of the Secure Freight Initiative announced Dec. 7, 2006, which involves the deployment of nuclear detection devices to six foreign ports. Secure Freight Initiative testing in Puerto Cortes, Honduras, started on April 2, 2007. Tests in Port Qasim, Pakistan, the first port to participate in Secure Freight Initiative, began last March. Four other Secure Freight Initiative ports are expected to initiate tests before year-end. They are Southampton in the United Kingdom; Salalah in Oman; Port of Singapore; and the Gamman Terminal at Port Busan in Korea. Members of Congress would prefer overseas inspections because they would eliminate potential disruptions (and voter ire) in their local constituencies.

But with domestic port and ship inspections inevitable, the Maritime Radiation Detection Project offers a way to develop a less intrusive and more accurate inspection regime.

Old News - GPS radiation detector "needed"

Bay Area officials try to devise terror response
Oakland Tribune, Apr 18, 2003 by Ian Hoffman, STAFF WRITER
E-mail Print Link Despite Washington's easing of the terror threat to prewar levels, U.S. intelligence analysts judged before the war that al-Qaida was planning a massive attack, aimed at American symbols, large-scale casualties and a blow to the economy.

Yet Northern California's top FBI agent said the intelligence, which mentioned the invasion of Iraq as a potential trigger, lacked key specifics of targets and timing that could guide federal law enforcement in frustrating such an attack.

"This was hard intelligence. This was credible intelligence," San Francisco FBI Special Agent in Charge Mark J. Mershon said Thursday at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory. "The sad part of this was none of this intelligence was actionable."

"We feel like we're looking down the barrel of a gun," Mershon told a conference of California anti-terror officials, "We don't know where it's coming from. We don't know when."

As cities and states complain of spiraling costs in the war on terror -- estimated roughly at $500 million ayear in deficit-plagued California -- Mershon's message was a sobering reminder that terrorists are hard to predict and insensitive to the bureaucratic wrangling among localities, states and the Bush administration.

On Thursday, Rep. Ellen Tauscher led 250 Bay Area anti-terror managers -- from first responders and state emergency coordinators to National Guard officers and defense scientists -- in sizing up threats and ways to tackle them as a region.



One answer -- a nifty, if bulky combination cell phone/PDA/GPS/ radiation detector -- could be swarming over U.S. cities in a couple of years. It's the latest brainchild of Livermore astrophysicists and nuclear-detection engineers looking for a way to hunt down "dirty bombs" and nuclear weapons while providing useful high-tech tools such as always-on e-mail.

Livermore's Simon Labov, director of the lab's new radiation detection center, sees RadNet phones in the hands of police, firefighters and U.S. Customs agents. One day, though, Labov imagines the gizmos will be built into taxis, rental cars and trucks.

U.S. ports and borders, most major subways and several U.S. cities already are equipped with crude radiation detectors that look like pagers.

"But those pagers can't tell someone who's had radiation treatment from a nuclear weapon," Labov said. "This instrument can."

The portable gadget can be programmed to ignore ordinary radiation sources -- the potassium-40 in tomatoes and human beings or the americium-241 in smoke detectors -- and identify close-by radioactive substances. It can beep a warning and prod the owner to call the feds or e-mail the radiation signature to a preset government address, complete with GPS coordinates.

Repeatedly Thursday, California officials noted that local and state authorities, not the federal government, are answering the call on terror threats.

"The American people are going to dial 911, and it does not ring in Washington," Tauscher said at her third Homeland Security Conference.

A centrist, pro-defense Democrat, Tauscher has been among California's most persistent voices in lobbying for federal domestic- security spending, a matter she describes as both preparedness and a shot in the arm for the region's ailing tech economy. She was a prime mover behind House legislation that created the new Department of Homeland Security.

"I think we're ahead of the curve, but we still have a ways to go," Tauscher said. "We need to think of a way to get the pipeline open and get everyone to stand at the end of the pipeline and have some accountability."

At Livermore lab Thursday, Californians criticized Washington for a miserly, one-size-fits-all approach.

State homeland-security director George Vinson complained that Midwestern states are accorded as much money for defending against terrorists as target-rich cities on the coasts. Meanwhile, Washington to date has disallowed the spending of federal money on overtime, the leading cost of domestic security in California.

Contact Ian Hoffman at href="<a href="<a href="mailto:[e-mail]"" target="_blank"mailto:[e-mail]"</a target="_blank"<a href="mailto:[e-mail]</a" target="_blank"mailto:[e-mail]</a</a ">[e-mail] .

"The fear is we're going to jam so much money down the pipelines that we're going to lose some effectiveness," Vinson said. "We're not going to do that. ... We want to spend the money wisely but we really need them to trust us."

Local officials left little doubt as to their solution.

"Keep that money coming," one woman said, tugging on Tauscher's arm during a break.

Few were willing to say publicly that the Bay Area is prepared for a terrorist attack. Mershon talked of confidence in his agency's "very aggressive, forward" stance.

But, he repeated, "the threat is still very real, it's long term and it's not very visible."
