Plutonium Concentrations in Arthropods at a Nuclear Facility
Health Physics, 1979Arthropods were collected for "'"Pu ("Tu) and =Pu analysis from three study plots in close proximity to the Rocky Flats nuclear weapons plant and from a site 110 km N-NE of the plant. Mean "VU concentrations in arthropods were 265, 16.0.7 and 0.5 dislmin g-' at the three Rocky Flats study plots and at the control site, respectively.

An Analysis of the Mortality of Workers in a Nuclear Facility
Radiation Research, 1979Data from the Hanford plant, where many workers have been employed in jobs involving some exposure to radiation, are analyzed. Mortality from all causes, all cancers, and specific cancer types is related to personnel and exposure data for the population at risk. Results are compared with those of other investigators who have analyzed these data.

The Health Risks of Decommissioning Nuclear Facilities
NEW SOLUTIONS: A Journal of Environmental and Occupational Health Policy, 1999The health risks facing workers involved in decommissioning nuclear facilities are a critical concern as the nuclear weapons complex and nuclear power plants begin to be dismantled. In addition to risks from exposure to radioactive materials, there are risks from other common industrial materials like crystalline silica dust and asbestos.

Nuclear Facilities, Decommissioning of
2012The process of safely shutting down, dismantling, cleaning up, and monitoring nuclear facilities is collectively known as nuclear decommissioning. Nuclear power has been used as a source of energy for more than 50 years, and more than 500 nuclear reactors have been constructed and operated worldwide [1].

Planning Ventilation for Nuclear Reactor Facilities
American Industrial Hygiene Association Journal, 1962Abstract The problems and waste which result from poor design and lack of forethought in planning ventilation of industrial operations are discussed. A four-point program to achieve good initial design is presented: (1) written required design criteria, (2) review by separate responsible specialists for health and safety, (3) periodic surveys and ...

Decommissioning nuclear facilities
1996Abstract Nuclear facilities at the end of their useful lives cannot merely be abandoned. The site may be needed for other purposes, amenity must be preserved, and above all else, the public must be protected from any remaining hazards. Decommissioning is a major world-wide task: the IAEA has estimated that some 50 nuclear power plants ...
