Series Description: The monthly reports of this record series pertain to the radioactive effluents released into the Clinch River and White Oak Creek and the monitoring of the waste. Lists of the major contributors of intermediate-level waste (ILW) are given as are comparisons of the volumes of ILW generated each month. Gaseous waste discharged from the ORNL stacks is also discussed. Individual stack releases and total releases are compared on a monthly basis for iodine-131. Tables showing process-waste discharges are provided for various processing areas and buildings with gross-beta activity averages in counts/minute/milliliter (c/m/ml) and gross-beta activity in curies with the percentage of the total curies.
