1989 Annual environmental report for the Strategic Petroleum Reserve (open access)

1989 Annual environmental report for the Strategic Petroleum Reserve

This report, provided annually, summarizes monitoring data collected to assess Strategic Petroleum Reserve (SPR) impacts on the environment. The report serves as a management tool for mitigating such impacts, thus serving the public interest by ensuring environmentally sound operation of the Strategic Petroleum Reserve (SPR). Included is a description of each site's environment, an overview of the SPR environmental program, and a recapitulation of special environmental activities and events associated with each SPR site during 1989. The active permits and the results of the environmental monitoring program (i.e., air, surface water, groundwater, and waste discharges) are discussed by site. The quality assurance program is presented which includes results from laboratory and field audits and studies performed internally and by regulatory agencies. In general, no significant adverse environmental impact resulted from SPR activities during 1989, except for a brine release from a pipeline perforation south of the Bryan Mound site adversely affecting a small area of marsh vegetation which is recovering at this time. 22 refs., 15 figs., 17 tabs.

Accelerators for research and applications (open access)

Accelerators for research and applications

The newest particle accelerators are almost always built for extending the frontiers of research, at the cutting edge of science and technology. Once these machines are operating and these technologies mature, new applications are always found, many of which touch our lives in profound ways. The evolution of accelerator technologies will be discussed, with descriptions of accelerator types and characteristics. The wide range of applications of accelerators will be discussed, in fields such as nuclear science, medicine, astrophysics and space-sciences, power generation, airport security, materials processing and microcircuit fabrication. 13 figs.

Accident progression event tree analysis for postulated severe accidents at N Reactor (open access)

Accident progression event tree analysis for postulated severe accidents at N Reactor

A Level II/III probabilistic risk assessment (PRA) has been performed for N Reactor, a Department of Energy (DOE) production reactor located on the Hanford reservation in Washington. The accident progression analysis documented in this report determines how core damage accidents identified in the Level I PRA progress from fuel damage to confinement response and potential releases the environment. The objectives of the study are to generate accident progression data for the Level II/III PRA source term model and to identify changes that could improve plant response under accident conditions. The scope of the analysis is comprehensive, excluding only sabotage and operator errors of commission. State-of-the-art methodology is employed based largely on the methods developed by Sandia for the US Nuclear Regulatory Commission in support of the NUREG-1150 study. The accident progression model allows complex interactions and dependencies between systems to be explicitly considered. Latin Hypecube sampling was used to assess the phenomenological and systemic uncertainties associated with the primary and confinement system responses to the core damage accident. The results of the analysis show that the N Reactor confinement concept provides significant radiological protection for most of the accident progression pathways studied.

Analysis of air-to-air heat exchanger performance data taken under the Residential Standards Demonstration Program (open access)

Analysis of air-to-air heat exchanger performance data taken under the Residential Standards Demonstration Program

The Bonneville Power Administration (BPA) initiated the Residential Standards Demonstration Program (RSDP) in 1983 to determine the costs and thermal performance improvements associated with increased levels of thermal integrity in new residences, as proposed by the Northwest Power Planning Council in the Model Conservation Standards (MCS). The program resulted in the construction of approximately 430 new residences, built to thermal performance standards, as dictated by the MCS in each of three climate zones in the region. A subset of the residences has been included in the End-Use Load and Consumer Assessment Program (ELCAP) being conducted by the Pacific Northwest Laboratory (PNL) for the Bonneville Power Administration (BPA). These structures are metered to record hourly energy consumption for several end-uses. Many of the structures built to the MCS include air-to-air heat exchangers (AAHXs) to provide ventilation for maintenance of indoor air quality and comfort. Of the 71 MCS structures included in the ELCAP sample, 38 included air-to-air heat exchangers and had sufficient data to allow an analysis of both use patterns and thermal performance. This report describes the results of the analysis of the AAHX installations using the data collected as part of ELCAP.

An analysis of heating fuel market behavior, 1989--1990 (open access)

An analysis of heating fuel market behavior, 1989--1990

The purpose of this report is to fully assess the heating fuel crisis from a broader and longer-term perspective. Using EIA final, monthly data, in conjunction with credible information from non-government sources, the pricing phenomena exhibited by heating fuels in late December 1989 and early January 1990 are described and evaluated in more detail and more accurately than in the interim report. Additionally, data through February 1990 (and, in some cases, preliminary figures for March) make it possible to assess the market impact of movements in prices and supplies over the heating season as a whole. Finally, the longer time frame and the availability of quarterly reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission make it possible to weigh the impact of revenue gains in December and January on overall profits over the two winter quarters. Some of the major, related issues raised during the House and Senate hearings in January concerned the structure of heating fuel markets and the degree to which changes in this structure over the last decade may have influenced the behavior and financial performance of market participants. Have these markets become more concentrated Was collusion or market manipulation behind December's rising prices Did these, or …

Anomalous surface phase formation on Pt sub 3 Sn <110> (open access)

Anomalous surface phase formation on Pt sub 3 Sn <110>

LEED analysis of the clean annealed surface of a {l angle}110{r angle} oriented Pt{sub 3}Sn single crystal surface indicates the formation of a multilayer surface phase which does not have the L1{sub 2} bulk structure. LEISS analysis indicates a surface stoichiometry of ca. 1:1 with Sn atoms displaced ca. 1.4 above the plane of Pt atoms. The surface phase is hypothesized to be a rhombic distortion of the {l angle}0001{r angle} plant of PtSn, which has a B8{sub 1} (NiAs-type) bulk structure. It is not clear whether the phase forms by precipitation of PtSn due to a slight (0.5%) stoichiometric excess of Sn in the bulk, or due to multilayer reconstruction driven by surface segregation. 20 refs., 3 figs.

An asymmetric B Factory based on PEP (open access)

An asymmetric B Factory based on PEP

The study of rare and CP-violating B meson decays is well suited to a high-luminosity e{sup +} e{sup {minus}} collider. For studying certain decay processes there are also substantial benefits associated with asymmetric beam energies, which give a moving center of mass for the B mesons. We describe a design for a 9 GeV {times} 3.1 GeV B Factory in the PEP tunnel that would operate initially at a luminosity of 3 {times} 10{sup 33} cm{sup {minus}2}s{sup {minus}1}. Technical problems include issues related to high currents (e.g., beam instabilities, feedback systems, lifetime degradation and detector radiation power dissipation) and those related to the hetero-energetic beams (e.g., beam separation, beam-beam interaction and detector requirements). Issues requiring R D effort are identified. 8 refs., 2 figs., 2 tabs.
