Series Description: This record series contains weekly waste monitoring reports for the ORNL. The reports provide data on air-monitoring activities and liquid waste disposal. Data on the release of iodine-131 in millicuries/cubic centimeter, show the extent of air contamination. The reports furnish information on wind direction and velocity and rainfall and how these conditions affect airborne effluents. In the liquid waste management section, the reports describe the sampling and analysis of water from White Oak Creek, White Oak Dam, and White Oak Settling Basin for beta and gamma activity in milliroentgens/hour (mr/hr).

Data Elements: 103, 118, 124
