National uranium resource evaluation program. Hydrogeochemical and stream sediment survey in Central United States. First quarter FY 1976, July 1, 1975--September 30, 1975

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:7181207

Work continued during the quarter to determine the analytical and sampling methodology to be used by UCC-ND in the Hydrogeochemical and Stream Sediment Survey. A sampling training session at Denver, Colorado was coordinated with the U.S. Geological Survey for all participants in this project. Also, a sampling trip was made to Texas in cooperation with Savannah River Laboratory personnel. Several industry contacts were made to obtain their ideas, particularly those regarding desired data which could be incorporated into the NURE Program. UCC-ND is continuing to receive excellent cooperation from the other Federal agencies, in particular USGS and the Environmental Protection Agency. This is very important toward minimizing duplication of effort. Work continued on the development of a quality control plan which will provide the proper quality level and ensure that the final report will be reliably useful to industry. Procedures are being developed for preparing solution batches and for screening and blending sediment batches. A summary of UCC-ND activities during the quarter is presented. Also included is a listing of plans for the second quarter. Future quarterly reports will show a comparison of accomplishments versus projected plans.
