DEP officials stress that there are other ways to measure radiation and that the faulty monitors do not place the public at risk.
The devices are meant to help detect and track any radiation release from the plant and determine who should be evacuated.
DEP officials tell the Asbury Park Press that they're working on fixing the problem. Critics say they're concerned that budget cuts may affect repairs.
