4. Here is a discussion about uranium in CA water on the Berkeley site

Some controversy of course because of DU depleted uranium and naturally occurring uranium.

Now http://www.llrc.org says this latest is from Fukushima. I don't exactly see that and I'd like clarification.
They aren't a woo woo outfit so they must be basing this on previous data or another signature of Fuku. isotopes


So they are basing it on increasing levels - there is something to that but baseline is needed:
edit: (Note: EPA has not provided baseline data. The background level indicated by the blue line on the graph is based on averaged measurements at UK Atomic Weapons Establishment.)
The increasing trend with proximity to Japan suggests that Japan is far more heavily contaminated than any of these sites, as we have predicted. It is of the greatest concern that no data on uranium and plutonium have been published by the authorities there.
