Environmental status of the Hanford Reservation for CY-1972
Environmental status of the Hanford Reservation for CY-1972
Data are summarized on radioactivity in environmental samples collected during 1972 within the Hanford plant boundaries, but excluding areas under the control of individual contractors. Some data are included on samples collected off-site. Data are included on the content of /sup 90/Sr, tritium, and total alpha radioactivity in samples of Columbia River water, surface waters, and drinking water collected at various locations; the content of /sup 131/I and gross alpha and BETA radioactivity in air samples collected both on-site and off-site; the content of /sup 239/Pu in samples of soil and vegetation; and the conlent of /sup 137/Cs, /sup 90/Sr, /sup 65/Zn, and /sup 239/Pu in tissue sampl es of migratory waterfowl, native birds, deer, and other wild mammals. Aerial surveys of gamma radioactivity were conducted at an altitude of 500 ft twice durirg 1972 and no unusual radioactivity was detected. Active, inactive, and retired radioactive waste burial sites were inspected for general physical condition and evidence of disturbance. (CH)
