Environmental radiological studies downstream from the Rancho Seco Nuclear Power Generating Station, 1985

Description: Information compiled in 1985 while assessing the environmental impact of radionuclides previously discharged with aqueous releases from the Rancho Seco Nuclear Power Generating Plant is presented. In October 1984, the quantities of gamma-emitting radionuclides in water discharged to Clay Creek from the plant were reduced below operationally defined detection limits for liquid effluents. However, radionuclides previously discharged persist in the downstream environment and are found in many aqua… more

Possible benefits from shuffling dipoles in the RHIC

Description: An example is given which demonstrates how dipole shuffling can be done to minimize various effects of magnetic errors. The concepts of ''global'' and ''local'' compensation are explained. With a Gaussian distribution, it is found to be possible to achieve an improvement of factor four or five over the statistically expected values without too much sacrifice in nonlinear distortion. There was no difference found in the performance between shuffling eight dipoles and shuffling twelve, and the tu… more

DWTF (decontamination and waste treatment facilities) assessment

Description: The purpose of this study has been to evaluate the adequacy of present and proposed decontamination and waste treatment facilities (DWTF) at LLNL, to determine the cost effectiveness for proposed improvements, and possible alternatives for accomplishing these improvements. To the extent possible, we have also looked at some of the proposed environmental compliance and cleanup (ECC) projects.

Technetium-99 and Iodine-129 in the burial ground plume

Description: As anionic species, both Tc-99 and I-129 are expected to be mobile in the soils beneath the burial ground. These two isotopes were analyzed in groundwater collected from research wells screened in the tritium plume leaving the burial ground. The maximum observed concentrations of 22 pCi/L of Tc-99 and 12 pCi/L of I-129 in the plume wells are above background levels and confirm the mobility of these species. The earlier measurements included in this report have been reported before.1,2 The data … more
