Iowa Radiation Sensors Quiet

Radiation from Japan's crippled nuclear power plant was recorded recently in the western United States, but not in Iowa. Officials said they have a radiation detection system in place to alert the state if radiation from the Japanese disaster or any other disaster makes its way to Iowa. KCCI reports there are 124 RadNet monitors in the United States including two in Iowa. One sensor is in Mason City. The other is on top of the Lucas state office building in Des Moines.
