Environmental Aspects of the Materials Testing Reactor Operation

Description: The U.S. Weather Bureau and the U.S. Geological Survey have prepared reports for the MTR Site. The Weather Bureau was prepared specifically for the December, 1952 meeting of the Reactor Safeguard Committe and contains the latest theoretical estimates of ground concentrations of stack effluent based on two years of meteorological observations using a tower the same height as the MTR stack. The report of the U.S. Geological Survey was developed from investigations directed primarily toward eval… more
