The local environment surrounding Mound Facility was monitored for tritium and plutonium-238. The results are reported for calendar year 1977. The environmental parameters analyzed included air, water, foodstuffs, soil and silt. The average concentrations of plutonium-238 and tritium were within the applicable stringent standards for radioactive species adopted by the U.S. DOE. Mound Facility drinking water has been brought into compliance with the new EPA standard for tritium in community drinking water systems, and Mound has undertaken a program to achieve compliance for nine private wells adjacent to the Facility site. The program has partially achieved its objective by bringing Mound wells and some of the nine affected private wells in the vicinity of Mound Facility into compliance with the U.S. EPA standard and significantly reducing tritium concentration in the remaining wells. Data concerning nonradioactive species in air and water are also presented and compared to federal, state, and local standards, where applicable.

Initiation and growth of a crack in the Charpy V-notch test was investigated by performing both static and impact controlled deflection tests. Test specimens were deformed to various deflections, heat-tinted to mark crack extension and broken apart at low temperature to allow extension measurements. Measurement of the crack extension provided an estimate of crack initiation as defined by different criteria. Crack initiation starts well before maximum load, and is dependent on the definition of ''initiation''. Using a definition of first micro-initiation away from the ductile blunting, computer model predictions agreed favorably with the experimental results.

Progress was made in all three areas this quarter--geochemistry, petrology, and basin analysis. In geochemistry the isotope work is well-established as is elemental analysis. Both are useful in application of data from other sources to the shales sequence, as shown. The V/Ni is proceeding well, and should be complete by July. The phenolic aldehyde work is not yet started because of equipment supply problems. In petrology some important progress was made in internal surface area studies of the shale in the Cumberland Thrust. Thin section petrography of outcrop samples from the Virginia side of the thrust is nearly complete. In basin analysis, the basic stratigraphic work of the project is nearly complete, with perhaps some problems remaining in the lower part of the section. All contractors are encouraged to produce the isopach maps, etc. of each unit as soon as possible. Representatives from Cincinnati have attended several meetings this quarter helping to coordinate these activities. The paleocurrent study of the basin is very nearly complete, needing some final work along the western side.

A /sup 1///sub 5/-scale test facility of a pressure-suppression system from a Mark I boiling water reactor was instrumented with seven types of transducers to obtain high-accuracy, dynamic loading data during a hypothetical loss-of-coolant accident. A total of 27 air tests have been completed with an average of 175 transducers recorded for each test. An end-to-end calibration of the total measurement system was run to establish accuracy of the data. The instrumentation verified the analysis of the dynamic loading of the pressure-suppression system.

Results are presented of acceptance tests conducted on the Alternator Stator, S/N 002, for the Kilowatt Isotope Power System. These results show that the Alternator Stator, S/N 002 for the Kilowatt Isotope Power System has satisfactorily completed the testing set forth within Sundstrand Test Specification 2538. Test requirements of TS 2538 were extracted from the Kilowatt Isotope Power System, and Phase I Test Plan.
