Series Description: This report contains the discharge monitoring records for various locations on K-25 for the NPDES. It documents the discharge number, monitoring period, sample type, analysis frequency, and other parameters such as temperature, turbidity, pH, oxygen, and nonradioactive contaminants (e.g., solids, oil, fluorides, lead). One section lists radioactive discharges and their total activity, in picocuries per liter (pCi/l). Those that exceed a certain level are examined for specific radionuclide content (e.g., cesium, tritium, strontium).
