  • argonne national laboratory site Environmental Report for calendar year 2004
    2005
    Co-Authors: N. W. Golchert, R. G. Kolzow
    Abstract:

    This Report discusses the accomplishments of the Environmental protection program at Argonne National Laboratory (ANL) for calendar year 2004. The status of ANL Environmental protection activities with respect to compliance with the various laws and regulations is discussed, along with the progress of Environmental corrective actions and restoration projects. To evaluate the effects of ANL operations on the environment, samples of Environmental media collected on the site, at the site boundary, and off the ANL site were analyzed and compared with applicable guidelines and standards. A variety of radionuclides were measured in air, surface water, on-site groundwater, and bottom sediment samples. In addition, chemical constituents in surface water, groundwater, and ANL effluent water were analyzed. External penetrating radiation doses were measured, and the potential for radiation exposure to off-site population groups was estimated. Results are interpreted in terms of the origin of the radioactive and chemical substances (i.e., natural, fallout, ANL, and other) and are compared with applicable Environmental quality standards. A U.S. Department of Energy dose calculation methodology, based on International Commission on Radiological Protection recommendations and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's CAP-88 (Clean Air Act Assessment Package-1988) computer code, was used in preparing this Report.

  • Argonne National Laboratory-East summary site Environmental Report for calendar year 2000.
    2002
    Co-Authors: N. W. Golchert, R. G. Kolzow
    Abstract:

    This booklet explains major portions of the ongoing Environmental monitoring program conducted by Argonne National Laboratory-East in the calendar year 2000. The full Site Environmental Report, written by N.W. Golchert, R.G. Kolzow and L.P. Moos, can be obtained by contacting Argonne National Laboratory in Argonne, Illinois, 60439, or by going to the Web site (www.anl.gov). This booklet includes descriptions of the Argonne-East site, missions and programs; the status of compliance with Environmental regulations; Environmental protection and restoration activities; current projects; past, present and potential problems and the monitoring program for air, water and radioactivity in the area. ''The policy of Argonne National Laboratory is that its activities are to be conducted in such a manner that worker and public health and safety and protection of the environment are given the highest priority.'' The Environmental surveillance program conducts regular monitoring for radiation, radioactive materials and nonradiological materials on the Argonne-East site and in the surrounding region. The detection of such releases to the environment is of great importance. If a release occurs, the monitoring program clearly identifies the substance, its magnitude and its origin. Programs and controls are set up to eliminate, contain or remove the substance from the environment.
