Report presenting data collected from a Aerial Radiological Measuring Survey (ARMS) of the Cincinnati area by Edgerton, Germeshausen & Grier, Inc. (EG & G), between Nov. 3 and Nov. 24, 1962. The survey was part of a nationwide program to measure the present environmental levels of gamma radiation.

The Columbia River Cooling Program basically consists of effecting a reduction in river temperature at the Hanford site during the summer season. The implementation of this program in recent years has been accomplished through the selective and controlled discharge of waste water at Grand Coulee Dam. The purpose of this report is to describe the river cooling program conducted in CY-1965 by Facilities Engineering personnel, and present the program results.

The objectives for Phase II, Module Development, are to perform detailed module deign and analyses; to develop and evaluate module components, and fabrication and assembly processes; and to conduct development testing on module components and complete modules in order to evaluate performance, environment capability, failure modes, quality control and long-term behavior.

Heat discharged to the Columbia River in reactor cooling water is one of the more important pollutants from Hanford operations. The effect of this heat on river temperatures has been studied for several years, primarily because of the potential effect on the Columbia River fisheries. This document presents a summary of recent river temperature experience, with comparison data for a better perspective.

"WR16, a program written in 3600-FORTRAN for a CDC-3600 digital computer, calculates, as a function of time, the concentrations of all the species taking part in the simultaneous first- and second-order chemical reactions occurring during and after exposure to ionizing radiations occurring during and after exposure to ionizing radiation of any chemical system (for example, an aqueous solution). Homogeneous reaction kinetics is assumed for the computation. The variation of electrical conductivity and optical absorbance of the system can also be computed" (p. 1).

The portion of the Cost Optimization Program, COP, that is used to design and calculate costs for organic-cooled, heavy-water-moderated power reactor plants is coded in FORTRAN II for an IBM 704 computer. The code is applicable for power reactor plants with electrical outputs of 300, 500, or 1000 MWe. The main features of the code include: (1) an automatic design of concentric fuel tubes of either UO$sub 2$ or UC including the calculaion of the operating conditions of the fuel assembly and a determination of the reactivity parameters for a unit cell, (2) the determination of the number of fuel positions and an estimate of the fuel life for several fuel charging strategies, (3) an evaluation of the fuel fabrication costs for the specific fuel assembly design and reactor throughput, (4) the design and cost determination for the major reactor equipment, the building structures, and the reactor auxiliary facilities, (5) an automatic optimization of the turbine plant conditions and of the steam generator design, and (6) a final editing of the reactor plant conditions, and the capital, fuel, and operating components of the total electrical power costs.

It is the purpose of this report to present data obtained from the routine reactor effluent radioactivity monitoring program as well as the results obtained from the research and development program directed toward the reduction of effluent radioactivity.

Report regarding the development of a new approach to dropwise condensation, understanding the role of nucleation in the process, and the possibility of permanent dropwise condensing surfaces. Report includes historical background, experiments with elements and dropwise condensation, economic considerations, and publications that came from his program.

The Hanford Project has over 500 wells which are used for the surveillance of radionuclides in the ground resulting from waste disposal. Wells are located at disposal sites to monitor the migration of radionuclides in the soil and to determine when a disposal facility is to be abandoned. Outside of the immediate disposal areas, wells are sampled to determine the movement of contaminants in the ground water zone. The spread of wastes in unconfined ground water aquifers is followed by routine sampling, and the confined aquifers in the area are sampled frequently where possible. Maps of gross BETA and tritium concentrations in the ground water are presented to define contamination spread from the disposal areas during the last six months of 1965. (auth)

The EG&G Film Magazine Type XPH-47 was designed to meet specific NC-135 program requirements for a reliable, simple and economical unit which would adapt the LC-4 camera for moving film oscilloscopic photography at film speeds suitable for the separation of oscilloscope sweep traces. Essentially, the XPH-47 is a standard Beattie-Coleman Type 32800 magazine, redesigned for incorporation of features which would fulfill these requirements. One such feature - replacement of the original motor with a new motor having a control circuit - provides constant speed operation and consequently, reliability not achieved by other film magazines. The XPH-47 is a self-contained unit consisting of both supply and takeup spools and a film transport mechanism. It is normally loaded in subdued light with 100 feet of 35-mm film and then placed on the camera. The magazine is removed from the camera, and the film is unloaded in a darkroom or in subdued light. The XPH-47 can be wired for use directly on the LC-4 camera to allow magazine operation with the shutter open. If desired, with additional minor wiring changes in the LC-4 camera, film motion signals can be routed through the camera to an external control panel. The leads to the two …
