Series Description: These monthly reports quantitatively document the release of liquid and gaseous radioactive wastes from ORNL to the environment. They give the monthly amount (in gallons) of liquid waste discharged through White Oak Dam and into White Oak Creek, White Oak Lake, and the region between the White Oak Dam and Clinch River. The liquid waste is further reported in a total curie amount according to the radionuclides strontium-90, ruthenium-106, and cesium-137. The total curie amount of gaseous waste releases from stacks 3039, 3020, 3018 is reported.
