Environmental Assessment for the Sale of Excess Lithium Hydroxide Stored at the Oak Ridge K-25 Site and the Portsmouth Gaseous Diffusion Plant

Book Description
The Department of Energy (DOE) has prepared an Environmental Assessment (EA) (DOE/EA-0855) for a competitive bid market sale of 80 million pounds of government surplus lithium hydroxide monohydrate (LiOH). The LiOH is no longer required for federal activities but is worth tens of millions of dollars in the commercial market. The purpose of the sale is to limit potential environmental liabilities associated with the storage of large quantities of LiOH, free critically needed storage space, reduce storage and maintenance costs currently estimated at $1M/year, and generate revenue for the Federal government. Based on the analysis in the EA, DOE has determined that the proposed action is not a major Federal action significantly affecting the quality of the human environment within the definition of the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) of 1969. Therefore, the preparation of an environmental impact statement is not required.

Technetium in the Environment
Author: G. Desmet
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 9400941897
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 416
Book Description
Since the discovery of technetium (in 1937, by Perrier and Segre), technetium-99 and technetium-99m have become most familiar in the specialised literature, the behaviour of the former being of concern regarding its health impact, the latter having been used intensively in medical tests for many years. The knowledge of the characteristics and behaviour of this element in nature is currently increasing exponentially. It has become clear, however, that there is still a serious shortage of information needed to assess properly its burden and impact on man and his environment. Technetium may indeed be released from nuclear installations or as a waste product from medical applications. It is generally considered to be highly mobile as the anion TcOi, but it is also suspected to be readily reduced in soils and metabolised in living beings into lower oxidation states. The seminar was planned to analyse thoroughly the experimental results obtained up to now and to make recommendations of specific issues requiring further research. This book presents the papers of the different sessions in the order of presentation, and the conclusions drawn by three discussion groups which dealt separately with: problems of sources and distribution of man-made technetium and its radiological consequences; the chemical behaviour of technetium in different ecosystems; biochemical reactions and binding with macromolecules in various life systems. vi Preface The editors, together with the Programme Committee of the Seminar, wish to express their gratitude to the chairmen of the different sessions for their summary of the group discussions.
