This report provides for each process tube the coolant flow rat (gpm) and temperature drop ({degrees}C) for the process tube containing the fuel rod bundles and for the four nearest neighboring process tubes. Reactor shutdown and startup times are also given. Peak thermal neutron flux in the adjacent fuel can be calculated.

Station 1A was the emplacement hole for the nuclear device used in the Advanced Research Project Agency's and U.S. Atomic Energy Commission's 5-kT nuclear Salmon Event of October 22, 1964. The hole penetrated the Pascagoula and Hattiesburg Formations, undifferentiated, and the Catahoula Sandstone, all of Miocene age, before entering the caprock at a depth of 882 feet. In continued through the calcite, gypsum, and anhydrite units of the caprock, which extend to a depth of 1,469.5 feet, and terminated in the salt stock at a depth of 2,802 feet. Five sand aquifer units lie above the caprock, whereas one sand aquifier lies within the calcite unit of the caprock. Drilling activities did not cause noticeable water-level fluctuations in the sand aquifers; however, during drilling in the calcite caprock, drilling fluid losses twice caused significant but temporary rises in water level in three observation wells that monitor the calcite limestone aquifer. The microscopic examination of drill cuttings collected at 10-foot intervals to a depth of 1,220 feet in Station 1A is presented. 2 figures, 1 table.

The purpose of this study is to provide budgetary data for modifying and monitoring the present water treatment process at B, C, D, KE, and KW reactor plants to effect a reduction in the activity of the reactor effluent water discharged to the Columbia River. The study is subdivided into three parts: facilities for sodium silicate addition at each reactor water plant, on-plant facilities for the manufacture and supply of sodium silicate, and instrumentation for monitoring the water treatment process for standardizing water quality in the water treatment plants. While the present concentrations of radionuclides discharged to the river are well below the maximum permissible concentrations established by the National Bureau of Standards, the proposed reduction is in the interest of providing greater protection from potential radiation exposure to people living downstream from the Hanford Plant where economically practicable.

On February 13, D Reactor sustained a bumpered enriched fuel element failure in process tube 3289. The element failed in the twenty-first position from the rear of the charge and was from lot KY-928-Q. Visual examination of the failed element indicated the failure mechanism to be cleavage of the uranium core. This conclusion was substantiated in part by the appearance of ``worm tracks`` in the aluminum jacket. The fuel failure was detected approximately three hours after the reactor had resumed operation from a minimum outage. Examination of reactor operation during the three-hour period revealed no evidence of a power transient which might account for the failure mechanism. As a result of a previous meeting between the management of Process Technology Subsection and Production Fuels subsection, verbal information was received from PFS which possibly explains the failure mechanism experienced with this lot. An agreement reached in the meeting was that PFS would provide Process Analysis with fuel lot canning history for evaluating continued irradiation of fuel failure lots with questionable quality integrity.
