DOI:https://doi.org/10.2172/6592075· OSTI ID:6592075

The Department of Environmental Management (DEM) within the Environmental and Occupational Safety Division (E and OS) at the Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) is responsible for environmental surveillance to: (1) assure compliance with all Federal, State, and DOE requirements for the prevention, control, and abatement of environmental pollution; (2) monitor the adequacy of containment and effluent controls; and (3) assess impacts of releases from ORNL facilities on the environment. To comply with these objectives, both monitoring and sampling of environmental constituents is performed. The surveillance program for 1986 includes sampling and monitoring of air, water from surface streams and point sources, groundwater, fish, grass, soil, and milk for radioactive nonradioactive materials. Surveillance points are located on-site to quantify discharges from ORNL facilities, and off-site to determine public exposures and to establish background reference levels. This data report provides Laboratory and Central Management personnel with the most recent information on environmental conditions.
