Radiological air monitoring and sample analysis; Research and development progress report, April--June 1993
The INEL Oversight Program (OP) began work in 1992 to establish a network of permanent air monitoring stations around the perimeter of the Idaho National Engineering Laboratory (INEL). Sponsored as a Department of Energy (DOE) research and development grant, the project was designed to provide the public with an independent assessment of air quality resulting from operations at the INEL. This progress report summarizes the results of air sampling during the second quarter of 1993. During 1992 and the first half of 1993, the OP obtained and operated air sampling equipment from EPA-Las Vegas and EG and G Idaho. These samplers were obtained on loan until the OP could develop specifications for and purchase instruments to be used in the permanent air monitoring network. These sampler were deployed at selected air sampling locations, while quality assurance plans and specifications for permanent samplers were developed. The results presented in this progress report should be considered as research data. During the initial phase of establishing the air monitoring network, several modifications were made to sampling instruments and, in some cases, sampling locations. Therefore, the OP Did not complete a formal quality assurance plan during this developmental program.
