A preliminary evaluation of the thermal effects of the Ben Franklin Dam project on Columbia River temperatures below the Hanford Plant

Description: The planned construction of the Ben Franklin project below the Hanford production reactors poses the question of determining to what extent this project will affect the Columbia River temperatures. Using the plant operations record for the year 1966, and the weather record for the same period, a series of simulation runs was made to determine the effects of the clam on the temperature regime, and the extent to which density currents could be expected to develop. This information is to be used a… more

Thermal mapping of the Columbia River at Hanford using an infrared imaging system

Description: The infrared imagery data was collected September 13, 1966 from 1010--1013 o`clock, using a mercury-doped germanium detector which was filtered to respond to wave lengths of infrared radiation. The magnetic-tape recorded information was processed with a computer program to obtain quantitative evaluations of river temperature variations and to accurately define surface temperature patterns resulting from the discharge of reactor effluents into the river. The river surface-temperature information… more

Pacific Northwest Laboratory monthly activities report, October 1967

Description: The results of a statistical study of Columbia River temperature trends were released on October 18 at the Sixth WSU Hydraulics Conference. The new John Day reservoir is under study for possible beneficial effects on flow regulation. Measurements of radioactivity in 396 children were completed at Captain Gray elementary school, Pasco, Washington on October 19, 1967. Measurements began at the Emerson elementary school in Pasco on October 24, 1967, following lectures to the teaching staff and to … more

Mew Washington State water quality standards

Description: The temperature standard of the new regulation, although less restrictive than previously proposed, continues to be one with which Hanford may find compliance difficult. The degree of restriction will depend both on natural river conditions and the methods of enforcement. Other specific standards are not apt to be restricting in the near future, but will necessitate further study and probably increased routine surveillance. One general requirement, which stipulates that ``all known, available a… more
