Series Description: This is a two-part report investigating the feasibility of putting radioactive waste into the cementitious grouts used in the Hydrofracture Facility. The 1975-76 documents record the results of leach studies done under controlled conditions. Methods and materials used in the experiments are discussed, as are results and comparisons with theoretical expectations. Projected use and recommendations, references, and nomenclature are also included. Part 2 is a continuation of the studies with a focus on the radiochemicals cesium and strontium, and measurements are given in "fraction of Cs x cm" and microcuries per cubic centimeter (uCi/cc). The results tables may also include a grout number, type of waste, curing time, type of water leachage, length of run, and comments.
