This report, covering the operations of the Winchester Laboratory for the second quarter of the year 1960, summarizes work done in analytical development, decontamination of uranium mill effluents, and evaluation of radiological hazards related to milling operations. A procedure for the direct determination of isotopic radium concentrations at low levels is presented and evaluated, and published methods for total radium are discussed. A technique for decontamination of mill effluents by barium chloride addition is described, and some data are presented on barite treatment. Preliminary work on the biological hazards of uranium mill dusts is reported, as well as a program of study of the erosion of mill tailings. (For preceding period see WIN-116.) (auth)
