Migration of transuranic nuclides in earthen burial trenches at the Savannah River Plant

Abstract

The objectives, incentives and benefits derived from the data collected at the Savannah River Laboratory on waste migration were discussed, and encapsulated transmission waste burial data were presented. Factors influencing radionuclide migration were characterized. A map of the burial ground was included. The trench sampling strategy was summarized. A description of the coring samples was included. Actual soil recovery results were tabulated, and a specific problem which reduced recoveries even when using a Shelby tube core was discussed. Data on waste strike distribution and activity as a function of depth were tabulated. The composition of recovered waste was tabulated. Wood and paper were well preserved in spite of long burial. Radiation of core samples was measured. The distribution of plutonium among soil particle sizes was determined.
