The citizens of Michigan don't need to be so desperate for an economy that it settles for health problems. That is an outrageous state of affairs if that is what Snyder is considering for the state. That state is beautiful. It has some of the sweetest people on Earth and they love their land. This so called 'idea' is another bad one and a complete analysis has to be conducted.
Above background levels of radiation exposure, (click here) the NRC requires that its licensees limit maximum radiation exposure to individual members of the public to 100 mrem (1mSv) per year, and limit occupational radiation exposure to adults working with radioactive material to 5,000 mrem (50 mSv) per year. NRC regulations and radiation exposure limits are contained in Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations, Part 20
There is no conversion unit from picocuries to millirems. (click here)

The word picocurie normally is used in conjunction with the level of contamination. I am not playing games, there are different words for different states of the radiation. There are conversions of picocuries to becquerels, but, not rems or millirems.
The International System of Units (or SI units) includes the gray, sievert, and becquerel: (click here)

- The gray is the SI unit used for absorbed dose (see Section 2.2).
- The sievert is the SI unit used for the dose equivalent and for the effective dose equivalent (see Section 2.4).
- The becquerel is the SI unit used for radioactivity (see Section 2.3).
