Records of the Sandia Corporation are not primarily concerned with fallout but with the technical effects of nuclear explosions such as blast, ground motion, and thermal radiation. Of the nearly 15,000 cubic feet of inactive records surveyed by searching the Inactive Record Transfer (IRT) forms and the microfilm files of the Technical Library, 4.8 cubic feet were relevant. IRTs from Sandia Corporation, Sandia-Livermore, and the Central Technical File of Sandia were screened. In addition, the ARCHIVES, ALPHA, and MEDIA indices of the Technical Library were reviewed and all pertinent materials copied for the CIC. The active files of several individuals and divisions were screened for pertinent materials relating to atmospheric testing, fallout prediction, health physics, and containment and venting.
