In 1975, lawsuits were filed claiming contaminated lands adjacent to the plant. Five remote as well as 89 sites on lands under litigation were sampled using four sampling techniques at each site. An additional 71 sites were sampled using the Rockwell International technique. No results approached the EPA proposed guideline screening level of 200 mCi/km/sup 2/, although numerous sites to the last of the plant exceed 2 d/m/g (10 mCi/km/sup 2/). (DLC)
