Photo Library - EPA Farm
In November 1981, the last cattle roundup took place at the U.S.
Department of Energy’s (DOE) experimental farm, managed for DOE by the
U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). Operations at this unique
30-acre experimental farm in Area 15 started in 1964 when the EPA was
contracted to conduct research to determine if radioactive materials
found in the environment were being transported to humans. At the time,
a major concern was the transport of radioiodine through the
soil-forage-cow-milk food chain.
