This clip shows the personal protective equipment (PPE) worn by workers in the post-emergency response to this radiation accident. This clip is taken from the U.S. Atomic Energy Commission's (AEC) film, SL-1 The Accident: Phases I and II. It describes, using real and recreated film footage, the events surrounding this 1961 nuclear accident, the initial emergency response and the early response to protect the public and the environment. Three workers were killed in this incident, the first worker fatalities associated with nuclear power. For more information on the Sl-1 and this tragic incident, link to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SL-1 . The entire 40 minute film is available for viewing and downloading at the Internet Archives.
