National Technical Reports Library

The National Technical Information Service acquires, indexes, abstracts, and archives the largest collection of U.S. government-sponsored technical reports in existence. The NTRL offers online, free and open access to these authenticated government technical reports. Technical reports and documents in its repository may be available online for free either from the issuing federal agency, the U.S. Government Publishing Office’s Federal Digital System website, or through search engines.

Evaluation of Isotopic Diagnostics for Subsurface Characterization and Monitoring: Field Experiments at the TAN and RWMC (SDA) Sites, INEEL.

DE2004828348

Publication Date	2000
Personal Author	DePaolo, D. J.; Lawrence, E. O.; Conrad, M. E.; Miller, E. C.; Wood, T. R.
Page Count	6
Abstract	The purpose of this project was to explore and refine applications of isotope ratio measurements for guiding environmental remediation strategies. The isotopic compositions of samples collected from field sites were analyzed to address both basic scientific issues and site-specific problems. The Test Area North (TAN) site at INEEL consists of a 2 km-long plume of mixed wastes containing low-level radionuclides, sewage and chlorinated solvents that were injected into the groundwater between 1955 and 1972. Measurements were made of the hydrogen, carbon, oxygen and strontium isotopic ratios of groundwater samples to address questions about the source of the groundwater and the regional hydrology of the area.
