Drinking water standards allow 1200 TIMES more Tritium than Strontium, Because They Can't Do Anything About the Tritium

(Before It's News)

NUKE PRO: Exposing Truth
Anti-Nuclear Information and Resources, and Disaster Preparation Planning: http://nukeprofessional.blogspot.com/ Because they cannot do anything about the Tritium…..just make the MAC large.

Drinking water standards allow 1200 TIMES more Tritium than Strontium, Because They Can't Do Anything About the Tritium

This table sums it up nicely.

Note how Natural Radionuclides have a very low MAC

But the stuff that man makes….even the lowest MAC are 25 times higher.    hmmmm

This comes from Health Canada, and it's a great reference and great read.
