- eds.
The recent completion of REECo's Automated Laboratory and associated software systems has provided a significant increase in capability while reducing manpower requirements. The system is designed to perform gamma spectrum analyses on the large numbers of samples required by the current Nevada Applied Ecology Group (NAEG) and Plutonium Distribution Inventory Program (PDIP) soil sampling programs while maintaining sufficient sensitivities as defined by earlier investigations of the same type. The hardware and systems are generally described in this paper, with emphasis being placed on spectrum reduction and the calibration procedures used for soil samples. (auth)
