Description/Abstract:
One health physicist from Mound Laboratory attended the conference on "Hot Laboratories" held in Oak Ridge on October 7, 8, and 9. Three Mound Laboratory personnel attended the Health Physics Conferences held in Idaho Palls on October 16, 17, and 18. On Monday, October 13, the 200 HP motor servicing the west stack fan burned out. It was temporarily replaced with a 150 HP motor. This provided sufficient ventilation for the "R" and "GP" buildings, but it was necessary to exhause air from the "T" Building through the head house instead of the stack The 200 HP motor was put into place again on October 25 and ventilation returned to normal No undue amounts of polonium were detected in the head house exhaust during this period.
