World Bank Legislation Before the 99th Congress (open access)

World Bank Legislation Before the 99th Congress

The 99th Congress has before it several proposals to authorize additional U.S. contributions to multilateral development banks. These include potential subscriptions or contributions to the International Bank for Reconstruction and Development (IBRD), the International Finance Corporation (IFC), the African Development Fund (AFDF), and the special African aid facility of the International Development Association (IDA). There is no legislation now before Congress to authorize new contributions to the International Monetary Fund (IMF), the regular budget of the IDA, or any of the other regional development banks. These have been dealt with in previous years. This paper provides some background on the World Bank and a summary of the pending legislation.

NCenter wide band neutrino beam (open access)

NCenter wide band neutrino beam

This memo describes the physical properties of the currently operating N-Center wide band neutrino beam---commonly called the triplet train, following a past tradition of a triplet lens configuration. In reality, in order to gain a larger momentum acceptance and to minimize the angular divergence of the beam, a quadruplet beam (4 lenses) employing point-to-parallel optics at a central momentum of 300 GeV was built. 6 refs., 13 figs., 1 tab.

Analysis of organics in 643-G groundwaters by GC/MS (open access)

Analysis of organics in 643-G groundwaters by GC/MS

Twenty-three of the 63 monitoring wells in the 643-G burial ground consistently contain measurable (> 1 ppm) amounts of total organic carbon, TOC. Of these 23 wells, 10 that contain elevated (2--400 ppm) TOC were chosen for in-depth analysis of semivolatile organics by gas chromatography/mass spectrometry, GC/MS. A well located near the site of previous decontamination operations was also chosen for analysis. About 40% of the organic compounds detected in these well waters have been identified. Many of these compounds are indicative of liquid scintillation wastes, spent solvent wastes, and solvent degradation products. Four priority pollutants were present at low levels. Some of the organics identified are probably degradation products from humic substances. Organic compounds of unknown origin are also present. No strong chelators capable of increasing radionuclide mobility have been identified. Preliminary dialysis work indicates that up to 30--40% of the TOC may be present as nonvolatile humic substances that cannot be analyzed by GC/MS.
