Fraley L and Bowman GC. 1982. Iodine-129 In Rabbit Thyroids Near a Nuclear Fuel Reprocessing Plant in Idaho. Health Physics. 43:251-258

Results of Iodine content from rabbit thyroids collected in and adjacent to Idaho National Engineering Laboratory (also copper basin area). May relate to EXPA (Park Expansion Areas). Elevated levels of Iodine in rabbits found outside the Idaho National Engineering Laboratory and seemed to be related to wind directions. Geographic location:Idaho National Engineering Laboratory site and adjacent areas, control samples from copper basin
