Uh, OK, I guess. It decays, so you would think it would go down. And their threshold for contamination is radioactivity equivalent to that from 1 gram of radium per square kilometer, or distributing a single ounce of material over 11 square miles. Nice for a science experiment on the sensitivity limits of mass spectrometry, but inconsequential for public health.
