    Notes: Abstract Battelle, Pacific Northwest Laboratories has recently developed, tested and field-demonstrated a technology for the direct assay of transuranic radionuclides (TRU), fission products, and activation products in a variety of radwaste packages generated at commercial nuclear power plants. This technology involves non-destructive passive neutron counting for determination of nanocurie/gram quantities of the TRU radionuclides. Direct gamma spectrometry combined with thermoluminescent dosimetry (TLD) and correlation analysis is also utilized to determine the concentrations of the fission and activation products present in the radwaste packages. Employing counting times of 10 to 20 minutes, a complete analysis of all radionuclides specified for assay by the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (in 10CFR61) prior to shallow-land disposal of commercial radwastes can be measured at concentrations at least tenfold below the least restrictive Class “A” waste catagory.

    Notes: Abstract A survey of radionuclides in air, precipitation, streams, sediments, soils, and selected plants was conducted in the Olympic National Park, Northwestern Washington State. Thirty-one radionuclides were observed in concentrations that were 3 to 4 fold higher than those observed in arctic Alaska. The environmental factors involved in the movement of these radionuclides through the food web and the trophic levels of the ecosystem were investigated. Rough calculations of the input-output relationships are made and trophic levels are compared.
