⚠️Radiation Inspections Underway in Pacific Palisades as EPA Assesses Fire Damage ☢️

A coalition of environmental experts and specialized agencies, led by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), was seen conducting radiation inspections in Pacific Palisades on Tuesday, January 28, 2025, as part of the ongoing recovery efforts following the devastating Palisades Fire. Working alongside the EPA, the U.S. Coast Guard National Strike Force Pacific Strike Team (PST), the Department of Toxic Substances Control (DTSC), and ACTenviro utilized the Ludlum Model 19 Radiation Monitor to assess properties for potential contamination and hazardous materials.
The U.S. Coast Guard's Pacific Strike Team, recognized for its expertise in hazardous substance response and emergency management, played a crucial role in the inspections, applying its specialized skills to ensure the safety of affected properties. Meanwhile, the EPA worked to mitigate environmental and public health risks in accordance with its mission to protect communities from hazardous pollutants. The DTSC conducted property assessments to identify contamination concerns and toxic hazards, reinforcing its commitment to safeguarding California's residents and ecosystems from dangerous substances. Republic Services Fire Hazmat, a leading waste management and hazardous materials organization, also contributed to the cleanup efforts by facilitating the proper disposal and recycling of fire-damaged debris. ACTenviro, a nationally recognized environmental and hazardous waste management firm, provided expertise in handling and mitigating the effects of hazardous materials in fire-impacted areas.
The inspections come in the wake of the Palisades Fire, which ignited on January 7, 2025, and quickly escalated into a disaster fueled by intense Santa Ana winds and prolonged drought conditions. The fire scorched over 23,000 acres, destroyed more than 12,000 structures, and led to the mandatory evacuation of approximately 150,000 residents from Pacific Palisades, Malibu, and parts of the San Fernando Valley. At least five people lost their lives, and many others sustained injuries. Firefighting efforts were hindered by extreme winds, which grounded aerial support and intensified the fire’s spread.
While recent rainfall has helped contain the blaze, it has also introduced new risks, including mudslides and debris flow in the already devastated region. With evacuation orders lifted as of January 27, recovery efforts have ramped up, focusing on debris removal, utility restoration, and environmental safety assessments. The presence of these environmental agencies underscores the importance of ensuring that the region is not only rebuilt but also free of hazardous contamination as the community begins the long process of recovery.

Following a house fire, the most likely radioactive material present would be radon gas which is naturally occurring. Power lines and electrical products, Wi-Fi, 5G technology, cell phones, laser products, tanning beds and lamps, smart meters, microwave ovens. Are everyday things that emit radiation that we live with it all the time.

[@lindarushton6502]

Where I live is very remote and silent at night. Have powerlines, going to little suburb, on roadside, and I can hear the buzzing sound at night in the quiet.

[@FUKKelowna]

@@lindarushton6502 That isn't radiation, just to be clear.

[@FUKKelowna]

There is a big difference between Gamma, X, UV and Microwave radiation. Cell phones, wifi, electrical =microwave (when powered up). Tanning beds, lamps are like xray in the sense that they are only emitting radiation (ultraviolet) when they are powered up. What they are looking for is radiation when there is no power to something, so likely gamma. Gamma can be naturally occurring, but very faint background radiation. What are they looking for? I have no idea but you should know there are many types of radiation, not all of those types are "radioactive". A Geiger counter only finds alpha, beta and gamma and x, to a degree. Alpha radiation is stopped by a sheet of paper, beta can penetrate tin foil, gamma can penetrate lead and concrete and so can x, but x is only electrically generated - like a hospital xray machine. Gamma can be naturally occurring but is usually mined elements bombarded in a reactor to be made unstable and then used for a bunch of different reasons: measuring material in a pipe, getting an image of a weld, detecting smoke in your smoke detector, measuring fluid levels and even checking how compact your gravel is before a concrete pour.

I cannot think of any significant radiation sources in a home fire. The risk from smoke detectors is negligible. I suppose if particle radiation had been used to start the fires then residual radiation would be a concern. That seems unlikely though but, like they say, never say never.

Lets go to the comment section and see what all the experts have to say.

[@OsotastyLordKC]

I have been researching and studying these fires since Paradise California, after Lahaina Maui, I was enraged! I do believe I have a relatively good grasp as to how and why these "wild fires" are so devastating to everything except the "wild"... Seeing this devastation from LA has found me apathetic and numb... I can fluidly and easily express scientific and obvious explanations for the strange phenomenon we are witnessing. IT BOILS MY RH NEGATIVE BLOOD THAT PEOPLE WILL STILL DISCREDIT WHAT I HAVE PRESENTED, AND ARGUE... So the structures are burned to the ground and cars are melted, yet the trees are still there with leaves and the bushes right next to the house are just fine...? I have seen super flammable ceder and gum and eucalyptus trees hanging with leaves intact hanging over multi story mansions that were completely leveled.... That's not normal! Kids plastic playsets next to incenerated homes, blue plastic trash cans sitting brand new looking inside garages that were leveled or next to cars and homes that were incenerated... Plastic usually turns to hot melting flammable goop when exposed to high temperatures! But okay your right everything is completely normal... No water in the fire hydrants? That's because the static energy that causes all the crazy, not normal winds is caused by a macro wave energy source that vaporizes H2O in its beam path... That process obviously evaporated the water out of the steel pipes! Tell me how a brush fire burns pipes in the ground or ignites non flammable telephone poles and melts the electric lines and meter box's... The energy concentration is so intense that anything, that is conductive, like metal or H2O, will have a ground fault reaction creating an arc, anything touching that arc would incenerate at extremely high temperatures, think plasma cutter, this is why plastic objects didn't melt, or the "open to the elements" super dry osb of the under construction home right next door didn't catch fire.... The osb was dry and had no H2O to boil or metal to combust... Unlike the steel banded tires of the car parked out in front of the leveled house that was also incenerated... It's the same thing that happens when you put foil in a microwave, but on a larger scale... The trees and foliage don't burn because wood doesn't conduct electricity very well... But DEW you know what does conduct electricity....? Everything that these "wild fires" DEW burn! The smart meters were installed and every home was wired to a dedicated ground wire coming from the polls to the house... Houses presmart meter, were grounded with rods into the ground... Now every house is hooked to a common ground that's feed back to the substations. Adding this ground allows the electric Company a third connection in which they can send singles through... They use this to monitor real-time usage as well as gives them the ability to pulse an alternate sinewave through the ground that will remotely shut off your power... That is their main purpose, the ability to remotely shut off power... IMO the electric company has data of extreme spikes and malfunctions during these fires... Most of the houses that survived this fire did not have smart meters or had isolation cutoffs between the and the grid... As far as the dustification of the man-made structures goes... It's frequency that vibrates particles, metallic objects, when exposed to certain frequencies, become hyper conductive and this produces heat... It also causes the surface of the metallic objects to oxidize, oxygen feeds fire... Hence the rapid incenereation of metal objects when placed in your microwave... Also explains the white look of the ash present on the cars and other incenereated objects like the broken power polls and transformers... Usually, house fires and even forest fires leave the landscape or surrounding structures covered in black soot and charred surfaces... These fires consumed entire homes but left only white ash and no smoke damage... Here is another bit of science, the oxidation of concrete or stone or ceramic objects, this process of vibrating concrete molecules literally zaps the oxygen molecules out of the masonry, guess what happens when you lower the ppm of oxygen molecules in concrete? IT LITERALLY, WILL TURN TO DUST! Hence the lack of structures after fires like that of Lihaina... I can also say that this type of frequency manipulation doesn't really affect plastic objects... They turned off the water in Maui/LA/Paradise because adding water to an electrical fire will only make it worse... The most moist place in a tree is obviously at its core, and just like the food in your microwave, that cooks from the inside out, so do the trees in these "wildfires"! Also brush fires don't leap, they spread across the landscape igniting everything flamible in their paths... This looks like these structures burned intensly fast from the inside out, and most didn't even singe the lush landscapeing or char the wooden fences at all! Notice that everything is not bright and lush green everywhere.... But still retains all of its foliage.... These plants and trees appear to be severely dehydrated but not burnt at all... I have seen under construction, open to the elements, stick frame OSB sheeting houses that are currently standing and untouched by fire, right next to completely leveled concrete, glass, and steel homes.... So please open your eyes and you will see that this fire was not just normal wild fire.

@@cw460 When you beam the oscillatory frequency waves of an LFRD "camera" from a satellite to earth it will generate electricity... This static electricity will then charge up the electrical lines nearest to the source... An easy way to grasp this phenomenon, is to put a fluorescent or CFL light bulb into your microwave oven and turn it on... Guess what will happen? The light bulb will light up! Directed energy weapons are nothing more than large microwave pulsers... What's funny is in some of these videos I have witnessed the lights coming on, then the houses will erupt into intense flames, and then suddenly the neighbors lights will flicker, and fade out... and the crazy winds and the fires intensity will reduce greatly... Then a few minutes later the houses next door will start to smoke, and then burst into flames, and then the streetlights or Christmas lights would come back on and the process repeated...

Very start of the video.... what dehydrated those plants to the point that they turned brittle and brown but did not ignite them on fire? Those plants were definitely green before the fire.....? So what kinda fire dehydrates the foliage without burning it? But completely eviscerates all of the homes into dust

[@OsotastyLordKC]

So the structures are burned to the ground and cars are melted, yet the trees are still there with leaves and the bushes right next to the house are just fine...? I have seen super flammable ceder and gum and eucalyptus trees hanging with leaves intact hanging over multi story mansions that were completely leveled.... That's not normal! Kids plastic playsets next to incenerated homes, blue plastic trash cans sitting brand new looking inside garages that were leveled or next to cars and homes that were incenerated... Plastic usually turns to hot melting flammable goop when exposed to high temperatures! But okay your right everything is completely normal... No water in the fire hydrants? That's because the static energy that causes the crazy, not normal winds is caused by a macro wave energy source that vaporizes H2O in its beam path... That process obviously evaporated the water out of the steel pipes! Tell me how a brush fire burns pipes in the ground or ignites non flammable telephone poles and melts the electric lines and meter box's... I mean, smgdh... The energy concentration is so intense that anything, that is conductive, like metal or H2O, will have a ground fault reaction creating an arc, anything touching that arc would incenerate at extremely high temperatures, think plasma cutter, this is why plastic objects didn't melt, or the "open to the elements" super dry osb of the under construction home right next door didn't catch fire.... The osb was dry and had no H2O to boil or metal to combust... Unlike the steel banded tires of the car parked out in front of the leveled house that was also incenerated... It's the same thing that happens when you put foil in a microwave, but on a larger scale... The trees and foliage don't burn because wood doesn't conduct electricity very well... But DEW you know what does conduct electricity....? Everything that these "wild fires" DEW burn!

DEW Weapons

[@ksytube]

@@michaelpowell7120 It is ABSOLUTELY the DEW that everyone is talking about. This all comes down to one man working in direct cooperation with the DOD. I had a friend who was working on Starlink at the time, he mentioned to me that it wasn’t just a communication satellite, it had a dual use. He wasn’t comfortable discussing anything too specific over the phone. He did mention that the DOD using Elon’s company could blanket the earth with satellites, which could then be used to fire “a beam” as he called it, at any point on earth whenever the DOD needed to. It wasn’t long after this phone call, when the whole news about Elon wanting to build a city to house his workers started hitting the MSM. This is likely so he could quarantine his employees and more easily monitor their communications through hidden surveillance, WIFI snooping, etc. A week after our phone call, my friend was let go despite being a top performer, and then less than a month later mysteriously died in a car accident that the cop I spoke to, said he should've walked away from. Why do you think Elon doesn’t want the Ukrainians using his satellites when they are close to front-line Russian troops?

[@stubstoo6331]

IT just boiled the moisture on the inside of the vegetation. Try burning green wood sometime you will see the water just boil out of the wood but won't catch fire.

You never missed anything not going to LA. It was a cool place through the 1960s and 70s. It started going down in the 80s and it's been a crap hole the last 30 years. Today it's nothing but a cesspool. I lived in California from 1962 until I couldn't take what it had turned into in 2017. Never in a million years would I have thought I'd move from there. Today, my wife and I are thankful we left in 2017.

It is not uncommon for trees to survive fires. They are also very close to the coast (moisture). Studying tree rings, they find and learn all kinds of things.

​@patti7904 I agree that trees may survive but at red hot temperature, no leaves or small branch can be left on them.
