The Columbia River Thermal Effects Study is an interagency study being carried out jointly by the Atomic Energy Commission, the Federal Water Pollution Control Administration, and the Bureau of Commercial Fisheries. Leadership for the study as a whole has been assigned to the Northwest Region of the FWPCA. By agreement among the participating agencies, a brief progress report on each project of the study is to be provided each quarter to the FWPCA on a standardized format. The FWPCA consolidates the submissions from all contributors and reissues the combined report to the participating agencies and to the Technical Advisory Committee. This report documents the submissions by Battelle-Northwest staff members to the progress report for the first quarter of 1969. It is expected that the AEC will transmit the submissions by the individual authors to the FWPCA, and that FWPCA will reproduce them in their consolidated report.

An alternative approach to a quantum theory of gravitation is explored in which a quantum version of the Newtonian equivalence principle is paired with special relativistic quantum field theory. Since no clear statement of the Galilei-Newton equivalence principle exists in quantum mechanics, the purpose is to take the first step in this direction by stating and sketching the proof of this nonrelativistic equivalence principle of quantum mechanics. One proceeds from operational statements to their theoretical expressions rather than postulating a formal system. Three references. (JFP)

Progress is updated for projects related mostly to biological and ecological radiation effects.

This document is the February 1969 monthly report for Hanford Categories C-57 and C-65. It contains information on reactor plant operation, fuel and target fabrication, technical activities, and irradiation services for the Hanford Production and Irradiation reactors. The document features a discussion of the backup coolant supply systems for the B and C reactors.

This report is about the pay raise of Members of Congress, members of the Federal judiciary, and top-level officials of the executive branch.

A program is now underway by Battelle-Northwest to develop the technology required for a waste packaging plant. Cesium chloride and strontium fluoride have been selected as the prime candidates for packaging. Cesium diuranate and strontium pyrophosphate have been selected as backup compounds for packaging in case either or both of the prime candidates should be rejected for any reason. No detailed studies of CsCl compatibility have been reported and long term data are needed. As in the case with CsCl, no detailed studies have been made on SrF{sub 2} compatibility. As a result of the lack of pertinent compatibility data, it is readily apparent that detailed studies are required on CsCl and SrF{sub 2} compatibility and at least scouting studies must be made on the compatibility of the backup packaging compounds. This report summarizes the compatibility studies that are underway at PNL using non-radioactive compounds. Capsule fabrication procedures and tests schedules are outlined.
