Soil survey of Solid Waste Storage Area 6
An intensive soil survey was made of Solid Waste Storage Area (SWSA) 6 (Oak Ridge National Laboratory) at a scale of 1:1200. The amount of chemical weathering, the thickness of upland soils, and the depth to unoxidized rock are dependent on slope gradient, water-flow pathways, degree of rock fracturing, and the extent of soil and rock erosion by late ...

Heat loading limits for solid transuranic wastes storage [PDF]
Heat loading limits have been established for four storage configurations of TRU wastes. The calculations were performed assuming the worst case scenario whereby all the heat generated within a drum was generated within one ``cut`` and that this cut was located in the very center of the drum. Poly-boxes containing one HEPA filter were assumed to have a

Composite analysis for solid waste storage area 6 [PDF]
The composite analysis (CA) provides an estimate of the potential cumulative impacts to a hypothetical future member of the public from the Solid Waste Storage Area 6 (SWSA 6) disposal operations and all of the other sources of radioactive material in the ground on the ORR that may interact with contamination originating in SWSA 6.The projected annual ...

Underground movement of tritium from solid-waste storage shafts [PDF]
Tritium from contaminated wastes placed in storage shafts has been transported by moisture into the adjacent tuff. A study made to determine the extent and geologic factors governing this movement indicates that 100 pCi/ml levels have moved westward a distance of 105 ft in 4 yr.
