    1) Sam Keith, a CDC liaison to the NRC, emailed Mike Aslaksen at NOAA asking for information on NOAA and EPA's environmental monitoring and plume modeling efforts in the Pacific Ocean from Japan to Alaska following the Fukushima disaster. 2) Mike Aslaksen responded that John Cortinas and Hendrik Tolman at NOAA are the points of contact for this topic. 3) Sam Keith had previously met with EPA management who said EPA currently had no completed information beyond a potential cost estimate for proposed work, and provided NOAA contacts for more information.

    Mike, I appreciate your quick response. Tony Sievers called and we had a productive conversation this afternoon on the topic, which is particularly interesting to me. I used to establish environmental monitoring program elements for Navy, which I understand is a partner in this effort. Best regards, Sam Sam Keith CDC Liaison to NRC

Aslaksen, Callender, and Bamford, As the CDC Liaison to the NRC for the Japan response, I have been asked to find out the status of NOAA/EPA efforts on ocean environmental sampling and plume modeling over the area from Japan to Alaska. I met with management at the EPA HQ EOC this afternoon and understand that EPA currently has no completed information on this topic other than perhaps a cost estimate for proposed work. EPA provided your contact information in case you might be in a position to assist. As such, I am hoping you can share the results of any sampling that NOAA has conducted in the Pacific Ocean since the event started, as well as current status/future plans on monitoring and modeling, or provide some points of contact on these.

    We have heard anecdotally that ocean water several miles off the Japanese east coast contains measurable Fukushimarelated radionuclides at concentrations below the EPA maximum contaminant limit. This type information would be helpful. Sincerely, Sam Keith CDC Liaison tQNRC
