How do the hazards of this radiation compare to something like the ordinary hazards of street drainage?

Where do you set your level of "less than trivial?"

Is that "less than trivial" level different depending upon whether or not the toxin is radioactive? Do radioactive toxins have a lower "less than trivial" thresholds then say something like E. coli levels?
