Abstract
The 1986 environmental surveillance report for the radioactive waste management areas at the Idaho National Engineering Laboratory describes environmental monitoring activities at the Radioactive Waste Management Complex, the Waste Experimental Reduction Facility, the Radioactive Mixed Waste Storage Facility, the Process Experimental Pilot Plant, and two surplus facilities. The purposes of these monitoring activities are to provide for continuous evaluation and awareness of environmental conditions resulting from current operations, to detect significant trends, and to project possible future conditions. This report provides a public record comparing Radioactive Waste Management Complex, Waste Experimental Reduction Facility, Radioactive Mixed Waste Storage Facility, Process Experimental Pilot Plant, and surplus facility environmental data with past results and derived concentration guides established for operation of Department of Energy facilities. 10 refs., 41 figs., 16 tabs.
