I loves me some of your kind.

At my employer (hello US DOE) we, the simple/stupid users of these work areas somehow need to know such arcane info like "what is the allowable removable Be contamination for X thing? 50 ug/cm2, 500 ug/cm2..." If we fail that test we don't get to walk into that room even to check a fire extinguisher's expiry date. Why would the fire dude, or me the engineer dude, care what the release requirements are? We'd call a pro, that's what we do...

For icky stuff like Be, U and Pu I just assume that I shouldn't smoke it, eat it, make it into smaller pieces or even lick it. Always wear gloves and a condom...
