The experimental procedure for irradiating the above specimens is given. No results are presented. (MOW)

The decontamination and disposition (D and D) of the contaminated facilities in Building 003 are complete. The Hot Cave, the building radioactive exhaust system, the radioactive liquid waste system, and the fume hoods were removed. The more significant D and D activities are summarized, special techniques are noted, and problems and their resolution are discussed. Results of the radiological monitoring are presented. (auth)

The decontamination and disposition of the KEWB facilities, Buildings 073, 643, 123, and 793, are complete. All of the facility equipment, including reactor enclosure, reactor vessel, fuel handling systems, controls, radioactive waste systems, exhaust systems, electrical services, and protective systems were removed from the site. Buildings 643, 123, and 793 were completely removed, including foundations. The floor and portions of the walls of Building 073 were covered over by final grading. Results of the radiological monitoring and the final survey are presented. 9 tables, 19 figures. (auth)

Drying of Amberlite IRC-72 ion exchange resin in a fluidized bed dryer was investigated. Resin water content was measured as a function of drying time for various drying temperatures, bed loadings, and air flow rates. An incomplete equation for the induction period and complete model for constant rate drying were developed. Further development of an induction period model requires installation of an accurate air flow measurement device. A drying temperature of 200/sup 0/F results in the shortest drying time with no resin damage. Optimization of the process with regard to other process parameters requires development of a complete drying model. (auth)
