This is not good. Someone should send fat little Richardson there with a mop.

Large amounts? Parts per billion levels? Parts per trillion? or what?

Elevated levels can be anything above the normal background level, harmful or not. Considering the source I’d call this one propaganda.

Any article that does not give real quantities but instead adjectives like large, elevated, serious, etc is bogus.
Alsoones that list increases by factors, it went up a factor of ten! without stating what the standards are.
So if the standard is 1 ppb, an increase to 50 ppt from 1 ppt is reported as a FIFTY TIMES INCREASE!
Since all the nuclear countries did above ground testing, I bet you can find plutonium just about everywhere if you had a sensitive enough measurement.

The department measured elevated levels of plutonium, americium and strontium in the runoff that resulted from a large potable water spill and several storm events . . . Analysis of five samples showed plutonium levels about 100 times greater than levels detected during normal storm events in previous years.I'm having trouble grasping how a POTABLE water spill could have had anything to do with runoff containing "elevated levels of plutonium, americium and strontium", and raising the plutonium level of the groundwater by 100 times. Maybe they THOUGHT the water in that broken line was potable, but it wasn't potable if it had anything to do with this increased contamination.
