    An informative discussion

    Recently there was long thread about the BCA. I can now post possible answers to some of the questions, such as "Why is the BCA still raising membership prices when there is a significant amount still left in its coffers?"

Radon is outside of my field, but this study could be of relevance if someone with access could pass a copy on:

The way I read that abstract, they are looking at drums full of highly radioactive waste which produce a trace amount of radon gas, and they want to keep the radon in (presumably until it decays into something which is not a gas). So they are assuming the radiation is coming from the radioactive waste, not the radon (hence looking at gamma rather than radon) and the only part where radon comes in is how well it leaks through a damaged polymer liner.
