This Single-Shell Tank Phase IA/IB Compendium contains methods used by the Westinghouse Hanford Company (222-S Laboratory) and Pacific Northwest Laboratory (325/329 Laboratories) during Phase IA/IB of the Single-Shell Tank (SST) Characterization Project. Phase IA/IB is defined as the period during which laboratory methods, evaluation, and development occurred, as they applied to the SST Characterization Project. The analysis methods in this compendium describe procedures without modifications or revision utilized during the evaluation and development stage. The methods used to complete the SST analyses included organic, inorganic, physical, and radiochemical analyses. The scope of Phase IA/IB included the analyses completed on SSTs 241-U-110 (U-110) and 241-B-110 (B-110). Eight cores were taken from SST U-110 that consisted of twenty-three segment samples. These cores were analyzed by the 222-S Laboratory. Eight cores were also taken from SST B-110 that consisted of forty segment samples. These cores were analyzed by the 325/329 Laboratories. Cores from each SST were received by the respective laboratory between August and December 1989, and analyses were completed on the final core in December 1990.
