Senate Environmental Committee Sets Hearing on Tritium at Landfills

On June 28 the Senate Environmental Resources and Energy Committee will hold a public hearing on levels of tritium in municipal waste landfills.

Tritium, a radioactive variation of the chemical element of hydrogen, is most commonly found in illuminated exit signs.

Representatives from the Department of Environmental Protection, the Nuclear Information and Resource Service (a private organization from Takoma Park, MD) and a landfill operator will provide testimony to the committee.
