The Portsmouth Gaseous Diffusion Plant (PORTS) is owned by the US DOE and is managed by Martin Marietta Energy Systems, Inc. The PORTS facility enriches uranium for national defense applications and commercial nuclear reactors and has been in operation since 1954. To support production, the PORTS facility uses large quantities of water for process cooling. The X-616 Surface Impoundments were constructed to hold the trivalent chromium sludge produced by the X-616 Liquid Effluent Control Facility. This report discusses the plan for post-closure groundwater monitoring. (VC)
