The environmental monitoring for calendar year 1977 shows that concentrations of radioactive materials in the Albuquerque area are typical of natural background for the area. An estimated 0.055 person-rem Albuquerque area (80 km radius) population dose commitment results from calculated Sandia Laboratories releases. Over the same area 57,000 person-rem is accumulated from natural background. There were no measurable offsite radioactive effluent releases in CY77.
