PhazonLink posted:a lot of atomz stupidity in the comments (or is that the joke / thread content?) In contrast, this seems relevant, even when you subtract the normal amount of media overreaction to anything nuclear: https://www.rollingstone.com/politics/politics-features/oil-gas-fracking-radioactive-investigation-937389/ quote:Tanks, filters, pumps, pipes, hoses, and trucks that brine touches can all become contaminated, with the radium building up into hardened “scale,” concentrating to as high as 400,000 picocuries per gram. With fracking — which involves sending pressurized fluid deep underground to break up layers of shale — there is dirt and shattered rock, called drill cuttings, that can also be radioactive. But brine can be radioactive whether it comes from a fracked or conventional well; the levels vary depending on the geological formation, not drilling method. Colorado and Wyoming seem to have lower radioactive signatures, while the Marcellus shale, underlying Ohio, Pennsylvania, West Virginia, and New York, has tested the highest. Radium in its brine can average around 9,300 picocuries per liter, but has been recorded as high as 28,500. “If I had a beaker of that on my desk and accidentally dropped it on the floor, they would shut the place down,” says Yuri Gorby, a microbiologist who spent 15 years studying radioactivity with the Department of Energy. “And if I dumped it down the sink, I could go to jail.”

Queen Combat posted:Well yeah it's gonna be like that on contact, the ranges are for open air. Exactly. In radiation protection a 30cm distance reading is the real one you use to estimate deep dose. "Extremity" dose to fingers can be much, much higher than the whole body dose and you aren't going to be sucking on fiestaware with your lips all day. Now, if you collect them, and keep a shitload close to you.....

Maybe I will buy that dosimeter from amazon.com quote:“They’ve known about this since the development of the gamma-ray log back in the 1930s,” says Stuart Smith, referencing a method of measuring gamma radiation. A New Orleans-based lawyer, Smith has been trying cases pertaining to oil-and-gas radioactivity for 30 years and is the author of the 2015 book Crude Justice. In Smith’s first case, in 1986, a six-month-pregnant Mississippi woman was sitting on the edge of her bathtub and her hip cracked in half. Tests showed the soil in her vegetable garden had become contaminated with radium from oil-field pipes her husband had cleaned in their yard. “They know,” Smith says. “All of the big majors have done tests to determine exactly what risks workers are exposed to.”

These future superfund sites are what your tax dollars will be spent on after the industry has made their money and moved on.quote:The first state to enact any protections at all was Louisiana, in the late 1980s. “It was the only environmental issue in Louisiana anyone ever sprang on me I didn’t know anything about,” says chemical physicist Paul Templet, who as the state’s lead environmental regulator at the time ordered a study on oil-and-gas radioactivity. The results horrified him.

So because my current crane operator certification company is owned by lunatics jeopardizing its continued existence, I've been developing my own company with some of our board members and customers to expand outward into all other equipment. In particular, we're looking at providing forklift certification that requires more serious knowledge and skill (including a practical operating exam) to hopefully push back against all the 4-hour certification courses that people keep marketing. If all goes well we should start getting some safer people out there who don't provide us with amusing/horrifying videos of avoidable accidents.

Shut up Meg posted:So your business plan relies on companies that will pay more to safeguard their employees, rather than do the bare, legal minimum? We're doing a wide variety of equipment certification (including scaffolding, diggers, pile drivers, etc.) but there actually is a market for that. Employers will often do the bare legal minimum, but not all of them. Insurance companies in particular are pressing for verifiable certification instead of just 30 minutes of instruction to a kid right out of high school, due to the obviously liability issues when they crash into something or someone and fingers get pointed. There's likely to also be a push in coming years for OSHA to start regulating it more strictly like they do with cranes now, and it'll be better if we're ahead of the curve. We're also going to be taking advantage of this by forming an association that trainers can join to get access to resources and workshops. Ideally we'll expand into every piece of industrial equipment we can get subject matter experts for.
