DESCRIPTION 
The series was compiled to document a study of the influences of diet on radioactivity 
in people and was conducted at schools in the Richland area. It includes material on 
another study to analyze the amounts of certain foods consumed by local families and 
schoolchildren. The series contains analyses of significant pathways through drinking 
water, locally grown beef, river fish, and game birds, for radioactivity to reach the 
body. The series consists of diet charts, whole body counter results, printouts, and 
photos at local schools. A database is maintained of the documents in each box of 
records. Box numbers (primarily) 027860 027875, 050200 050213.
