I-2 B. Executive Summary For the first time, an executive summary has been incorporated l

l into our annual report. The summary highlights Radiation Center activ-ities and accomplishments and describes major changes which have occur-red during the past year. We hope you will find it helpful.

One of the biggest changes this year is the report :tself. Our annual report has undergone a major revision in terms of scope and format, and now includes information about ?,he entire Radiation Center rather than concentrating mainly on the reactor. However, our report still includes all inforstion needed by the various agencies who require an annual report dealing with the OSU TRIGA redctor.

We are again very happy t0 report that the Radiation Center and  !

reactor exper;enced a year in which there was increased u";e and funding.

In fact, the 1987-88 interval was the busiest and most product'ive year for quite some time. However, before we review our achievements, we would like to express our appreciation to the university's adminis-  !

tration for their financial and adminfitrative support and encourage-ment. We are also most grateful to the U.S. Department cf Energy for their support through the reactor sharing program, and we would like to say thank you to the many other organizations who funded re-search and technical services conducted by the Center. The resources obtained through these channels created educational opportunities which allowed many students and new researchers to use the unique facilities present at the OSU Radiation Center.

As indicated, academic activity at the Radiation 'anter and reactor reached new neights during the current reporting period. For example, the reactor was utilized 91% of the available 45-hour work week, and the total reactor use hours increased 23%. As a result, we occasionally were required to operate beyond our normal one-shift schedule and compensated for this by performing evertime reactor runs. We view this as a prelude to the establishment of a formal second-shift operation.

In the teaching area, the Radiation Center accommodated 26 OSU classes from 10 different academic departments, and reactor operating hours equivalent to approximately 30% of the normal academic year were used to directly support such classes. There was also over a

1 I-3 65% increase in the number of student projects at mmodated at the Center, and a 54% increase in the number of reacto hours devoted to these projects. When the preceding instructional hours are combined with a significantly increased number of ' operating hours for academic revaarch we show a 66% overall increase in the. number of reactor hours devoted to teaching and research.

Other use indicators also reflect the busy year experienced by t'ne Radiati6n Center and reactor. For example, we had a 146% increase in the (1 umber of operating hours when the reactor had multiple users, and on eight different occasions we had six users at one time. We also ended the year with a 92% increase in the number of other uni-versities using the Center, a 78% increase in the number of state, federal, and other organizations usi6g the facility, an 85% increase ir the number of research and service projects performed, and a 12-fold increase in the number of times these research und service projects were repeated. We are particularly pleased with these h$olts because we were able to measurably increase our assistance to the OSU community while concurrently expanding our research and service interactions f with other universities in the Oregon State System of Higher Education ,

(OSSHE), with a number of state and federal agencies, and with colleagues at otiler universities across the nation. We also feel encouraged by these results because, from our perspective, they are a good indication of the fact that the OSU Radiation Center is continuing to grow in terms of national recognition.

In the area of research support and new technical programs, the Radiation Center made 84 shipments of radioisotopes to users outside the Radiation Center, and significantly increased the size of our program for calibrating portable radiation monitoring instruments.

Enlargement of this program directly benefitted OSU and other State System schools, in addition to helping several agencies of the state of Oregon, and several federal organizations. The staff also received a large increase in the number of requests for gamma irradiations using the cobalt-60 irradiator. By the end of the reporting period we had accumulated a total of '2,278 hours0.00322 days <br />0.0772 hours <br />4.596561e-4 weeks <br />1.05779e-4 months <br /> for various irradiations (a six-fold increase in use)..

i I-4 The Radiation Center continued to be a popular place to visit, particularly for high schools, community colleges and' interested cit-izens. We again hosted over 800 visitors during the course of the year.

Scholarly publications involving a major contribution by the Radiation Center increased 100%, and we recorded nearly. a four-fold increase in presentations at professional meetings where the Center was instrumental in developing research data being reported. Considering the publications currently in print, those presently submitted for publication, and those in the final stages of preparation, there have been 99 total articles generated during the reporting period which' involved a significant contribution by the Radiation Center.

To manage the increased overall use of the Rsdiation Center and its facilities, our recently implemented " project" system continued to develop as a means of accounting, scheduling and recording facility use. The coming year will see further changes in this system to meet the recordkeeping requirements of the new annual report format.

We also feel that it is iniportant to note that there were no items of regulatory noncompliance, no reportable occurrences, and no emergencies or security events relating to the Radiation Center during this reporting period. In addition, all of the increased use of the Radiaticn Center and reactor was accomplished with no increase in personnel radiation exposure or any impact on the environment.

The comprehensive radiation protection program at the Radiation Center once again showed that the Center and the reactor can be operated safely and within the international goal of keeping personnel doses and releases of radionuclides as low as reasonably achievable (ALARA).

This reporting period saw the first full year of the new Radiation Center Director, the arrival of a new Senior Health Physicist, and the subsequent completion of the Radiation Center's reorganization and management plan. We believe that these staffing changes have resulted in the structuring of a strong group of personnel capable of meeting the challenges of increased demands and facility use.

We are looking forward to another good year.

I-5 C. p troduction The annual report for the OSU TRIGA Reactor has been extensively revised .

and expanded this year. In particular, the report now includes infor-mation relating to-the entire Radiation. Center rather than just the reactor. However, the information is presented in such a menner that data on the reactor may be examined separately if desired. It should q be noted that reactor operating data in this report relate only to the FLIP-fueled core. For a summary of data on the reactor's original 20% enriched core the reader is referred to Table IV.A.3 in Part IV of this report, or to the 19'/6-77 annual report if a more comprehensive

~ review is needed.

l In addition to providing general information about the activities of the Radiation Centeri this report is designed to meet the reporting requirements of the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission, the U.S.

Department of Energy, and the Oregon Department of Energy. Because of this, the report is divided into several distinct parts so that

'the reader may easily find the. sections of interest. An executive summary is also included for those alrecdy. familiar with the Radiation Center's operation.

I-6 D. Overview of the Radiation Center The Radiation Center is an extremely unique facility which serves the entire OSU Campus, all other institutions within the Oregon State System of Higner Education, and many other colleges and universities throughnut the nation. The Center also regularly provides special-services to state and federal. agencies, particularly agencies dealing with law enforcement, energy, health, and environmental quality, and renders assistanea to Oregon industry. In addition, the Radiation Center provides purelanent office and laboratory space for the OSU Department of Nuclear Engineering, the OSU Radiation Safety program, and for the OSU nuclear chemistry, radiation chemistry, and geo- and cosmochemistry programs. There is no other university facility with the combined capabilities of the OSU Radiation Center in the western half of the United States. See Figure'I.D.1.

located in the Radiation Center are major items of specialized equipment and unique teaching and research facilities, including a 1RIGA Mark 11 research nuclear reactor; a cobalt-60 gamma irradiator; a 300 kVp X-ray generator; a number of state-of-the-art computer-based gama radiation spectrometers and associated germanium detectorst a neutron radiography facility capable of taking still or very high speed radio-graphs; and a variety of instruments for radiation measurements and monitoring. Specialized facilities for radiation work include teaching and research laboratories with up-to-date instrumentation and related equipment for performing neutron activativn analysis and radiotracer studies; laboratories for animal and plant experiments involving radio-  ;

activity; an instrument cal';bration facility for radiation protection l instrumentation; and facilities for packaging radioactive materials for shipment to national and international destinations.

The Radiation Center staff regularly provides direct support and assis- l tance to OSU teaching and research programs. Areas of expertise commonly l l

involved in such efforts include nuclear engineering, nuclear and radiation chemistry, neutron activation analysis, neutron radiography, radiation effects on biolog1 cal systems, radiation dosimetry, production

-4 . ,  :. I-7 of short-lived radioisotopes, radiation shielding, nuclear instrumen-

. tation, emergency response, transportation of. radioactive materials, instrument calibratio", radiation health physics, ' radioactive waste disposal, and other related areas.

In addition to formal academic and research support, the Center's staff provides a wide variety of other services including public tours and public instructional prograns, and professional consultation associated with the feasibility, design, safety, and execution of experiments using radiation and radioactive materials.

        ' F. . History A brief chronology of the key 1 dates sHd events in the history of the-
              ' OSU Radiatien Center and the TRIGA reactor is given below:-

l 1 June 1964 Completion of the first phase of the Radiation Center consisting of 32,397., square feet of offhe .and labora-tory space. July 1564 Transfer of the 0.1 W AGN 201 reactor to the Radiation Center. This reactor was initially. housed in the l 1 Mechanical Engineering Department.and had gone critical 'l in January of 1959. Oct. 1966 Completion of the second phase of the Radiation Center consisting of 9,956 square feet of space fer the TRIGA reactor and associated laboratories and offices. March 1967 Initial criticality of the Oregon State TRIGA Reactor (OSTR). The reactor was licensed to opert.te at a maximum steady. state power level of 250 kW, and was fueled with 20% enriched fuel. August 1969. OSTR if tensed to operate at a maximum steady state power of 1 MW, but could do so only for short periods < l of time due to lack of cooling capacity.  ; June 1971 OSTR cooling capacity upgraded to allow continuous operation at 1 MW.

             . April 1972            OSTR Site Certificate issued by the Oregon inergy Facility Siting Council.

Sept. 1972 OSTR area fence installed.

               -Dec. 1974            AGN401 reactor permanently shut down.

March 1976 Completion of 1660 square feet of additional space to accommodate the rapidly expanding nuclear engineer-  ; ing program. July 1976 OSTR refueled with 70% enriched FLIP fuel.

o . l I-14 l 1 i July 1977 Completion of a second 1600 square feet of space j to bring the Radiation Center complex to its current ] I. total of 45,553 square feet. Jan. 1980 Major upgrade of the electronics in the OSTR control console, i July 1980 AGN-201 reactor decommissioned and space released for unrestricted use. Julie 1982 Shipment of the original 20% anriched OSTR fuel to I Westinghouse Hanford Corporation. I 1 j 1

1. Description H The Oregon State University TRIGA Reactor (OSTR) is a water-cooled, swimming pool type of research reactor which uses uranium / zirconium hydride fuel elements in a circular grid array. The reactor core is surrounded by a ring of graphite which serves to reflect neutrons back into the core. The core is situated near the bottom of a 22 foot deep water-filled tank, end the tank is surrounded by a concreto monolith which acts as a radiation shield and structural support. See Figures III. A.1, III. A.2 and III. A.3.

The reactor is licensed by the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission to operate at a maximum steady state power of 1 MW, and can also be pulsed up to a peak power of about 3000 MW. The OSTR has a number of different irradiation facilities including. a pneumatic transfer tube, a. rotating rack, a thermal column, four beam ports, and sample-holding (dummy) fuel elements for special in-core irradiations. The pneumatic transfer facility enables samples to be inserted and removed from the core in a few seconds. Consequently, this facility is normally used for neutron activation analysis involving short-lived radionuclides. On the other hand, the rotating rack is used for much longer irradiation of samples (e.g., hours). The rotating rack consists of a circular array of 40 tubular positions, each of which can hold two sample tubes. The rotation of the rack ensures that each sample will receive the same amount of 1 irradiation.

III-5 The reactor's thermal column consists of a large stack of graphite blocks which slow down neutrons from the reactor core in ordei to. increase thermal neutron activation of samples. Graphite blocks are removed from the-thermal column to enable scmples to be posi - tioned inside for irradiation. The beam ports are tubular penetrations.in.the reactor's main concrete shield which enable neutron and gamma radiation to stream from the core when a beam port's shield plugs are removed. Two of the OSTR's beam ports are permanently configured for neutron radiography while the other two may be used for a variety of ex-periments. If samples to be irradiated require large neutron fluxes, especially fluxes involving higher energy neutrons, then such samples may be inserted into a dummy fuel element. This device will then be placed into one of the core's inner grid positions normally occupied by a fuel element.

2. Utilization l

The two main uses of the OSTR are instruction and research. During ' this reporting period, the reactor was in use an average of 41 hours during a typical 45-hour work week. Hence, the reactor was used approximately 91% of the available time.

a. Instruction Instructional use of the reactor is twofold. First, it is used significantly for classes in nuclear engineering, radiation protection, and chemistry at both the graduate and undergraduate  !

levels to demonstrate numerous principles which have been pre-sented in the classroom. Basic neutron behavior is the same in small reactors as it is in large power reactors, and many I ' l demonstrations and instructional experiments can be performed j using the OSTR which cannot be carried out with a commercial ) 1 power reactor. Shorter-term demonstration experiments are I

                                                                       .III-6

(. also' performed for many undergraduate students in physics, chemistry and biology classes, as well as for asitors from other universities and-colleges, from high schools and from , public groups. I The second instructional application of the OSTR involves education of reactor operators, operations managers, and radi- .i ation health physicists. The OSTR is in a unique position  ! to provide su:h education since curricula must include hands-on experience at an operating reactor and in associated labora-tories. The many types of educational programs that the Radi-ation Center provides are more fully described in Part VI.C.5 of this report. During this reporting period the OSTR accourodated 26 OSU academic classes and 2 reactor operator training programs. In addition, portions of classes from other Oregon universities 1 were also supported by the OSTR. The OSU teaching programs utilized 359 hours of reactor time. Tables III.A.1 and III.A.2 as well as Table III.E.1 provide detailed information on the use of the OSTR for instruction and training. i f

b. Research The OSTR is an extremely unique and valuable tool for a wide variety of research applications, and serves as an excellent "

source of neutrons and/or gamma radiation. The most popular l experimental technique requiring reactor use is neutron acti- l vation arialysis (NAA). Thir, is a particularly sensitive method l 1 of elemental analysis which is described in more detail in Part VI.C.I. Part III.B provides a listing of equipment used I in NAA at the Radiation Center. The OSTRi s irradiation facilities provide a wide range of neutron flux levels and ne; tron flux qualities, which are suf> ficient to meet the needs of most researchers. This is true not only for NAA, but also for other experimental techniques q such as fission track dating of geological and anthropological materials. During this r(porting period, the OSTR accommodated 91 funded research projects which utilized 1009 hours of reactor time, and 19 unfunded research projects which utilized 88 hours of reactor time. Details of the reactor's use snacifically for research are given in Table III. A.3. ArJditional information regarding reactor use for research, thesis and service can be found in Tables VI.C.1 through VI.C.3. In these tables GSTR use is indicated with an asterisk. 1 1 l h i 1 i i l i I _o

l 1. Description l The Radiation Centei has e great variety of radiation counting r equipment. Much of this equipment involves the latest in counting technology as represented by the twelve state-of-the-art gamma ray spectrometers with their associated computers and Ge(L1) or intrinsic germanium detectors. Tables III.B.1 through III.B.3 provide a brief listing of typical laboratory counting equipment present at the Center. Much additional equipment for use in the { classroom, and an extensive inventory of portable counting instru-mentation are also available.

2. IJtilization Radiation Center counting equipment receives intensive use due to both teaching and research applications. In addition, service projects also use these 'eystems and the combined use often results in 24-hour pe day schedules for many of the counting instruments.

Use of Center counting squipment extends beyond that located at 1 the Center as represented by two single channel analyzers on loan for the past few years to OSU researchers 1." the Departments of Pharmaceutical Chemistry and Fisheries and Wildlife. l l l l l

2. Utilizatio_n  !

During this reporting period there were two large projects using the cobal'c-60 irradiator. One involved the irradiation of mice as part of an immuno-toxicological study of dioxins, and the other involved the testing of thermoluminescent dosimeters. However, examples of other samples irradiated include fish lymphocyte cells  ; i and pumpkins seeds. In addition, the Center resumed use of the irradiator for long irradiations associated with the sterilization of soil and other materials. Data on use of the irradiator for-this reporting period are given in Table III.C.1, I i i _o

I Facilities available at the Center include an instructional laboratory f especially equipped for radiochemistry and two nuclear instruments-tion teaching laboratories equipped with modular sets of counting equipment which can be configured to accommodate a variety of experiments involving the measurement of many types of radiation. The Center also has two computer rooms equippad with microcomputers and terminals which are linked to other computers, both on and f off campus. In addition to these dedicated instructional laboratories, many other research laboratories and facilities are regularly used for teaching. In particular, classas are routinely given access to appropriate state-of-the-art analytical equipment located in othet Center laboratories. A number of classes also regularly use the reactor and the reactor bay as an integral part of their instructional coursework., i l There are two relatively largo classroones in the Radiation Center which are capable of holding about 35 students each. In addition, there are two smaller conference rooms suitable for graduate c1essas and thesis examinations. As a service to the student body, the Radiation Center also provides a student study room /lotnge as well as an office area for the stuaent chapter of the American ! Nuclear Society, f

1. Description The Radiatio.1 Center has a facility for the repair and calibration of essentially all types of radiation monitoring instrumentation.

This includes instruments for the detection and measurement of alpha, beta, pamma and neutron radiation, and encompresses both j high range instruments for measuring intense radiation fields ] and low range instruments used to measure environmental levels j of rad'ioactivity. The Center's instrument calibration capability l is described more completely in Section VI.C.7 of thfs report. )

2. Utilization {

The Center's instrument repair and calibration facility is used regulat?y thrcugh each year and is absolutely essential to the continued operaticn of the many different programs carried aut at the Center. In addition, the absence of any comparable facility in the state of Oregon is leading to a greatly expanded calibration program for the Center, including calibration of essentially all radiation detection instruments on the OSU campus, plus instruments from Oregon Health Sciences University, the Oregan Health Division's Radiation Control Section, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, the U.S. Bureau of Mines, and others. Additional information l regarding instrument repair and calibration efforts, and the growth of this activity s g1ven in Tables VI.C.4 and VI.C.5. l l l l l

Therefore, Center libraries maintain.a current collection of leading research and regulatory                  j documentation in the nuclear field. In addition,.the Center has.

a collection of over 50 sets of nuclear power reactor safety analy-sis and environmental reports specifically prepared by utilities for their facilities.

i The Radiation Center videot&pe library has over one hundred tapes' , i on nuclear ergiceerNg, radiation protection and radiological j emergency response. In addition, the Radiation Center uses video- 1 tapes for most of the technical orien'tations which are required for personnel working with radiation and radioactive materials. These tapes are produced, recorded and edited by Radiation Center staff, using the Center's videotape equipment ard the assistance [ of the OSU Communications Media Center. i

I PART IV REACTOR - A. Operating Statistics For the current reporting period, the operating statistics for the OSTR showed an increase in each of the major categories when compared

    =to the previous period. -Operating data by individual category are given in Tables IV. A.1 and IV. A.2, and in Figure IV.A.1. Table IV.A.3 is included for reference and summarizes the operating statistics         !

for the original 20% enriched fuel. I The thermal energy generated in the reactor during this reporting  ! period was 41.7 MWD. The cumulative thermal energy generated by the FLIP core now totals 401.5 MWD from August 1, 1976 through June 30, j 1988. Reactor use time averaged approximately 91% of the normal nine-hour, five-day per week schedule. Tables IV.A.3 through IV. A.6 detail the operating statistics applicable to this reporting period. Excess reactivity increased approximately 604 during the current re-porting period. This change was caused by several facters including:

1. Removal of the cadmium-lined pneumatic transfer facility (increased
         . reactivity).
2. Removal of the water container in beam port #4 which had been used to increase the flux in beam port #3 (increased reactivity). l
3. Removal of two deformed fuel elements (decreased reactivity).
4. Fuel burnup (decreased reactivity).
5. Consumption of the erbium burnable poison in the fuel (increased reactivity).

1. 10 CFR 50.59 Changes to the Reactor Facility l Thers were two changes.to Ltd reactor facility which were reviewed and performed under the provisions of 10 CFR 50.59 during the reporting perio11.
a. Addition of Coilthread Inserts to the Thermal Column Graphite Stfingers ,

(1) Bescripticn 'f The thermal colusn graphite stringers were designed to be removed by screwing an extraction tool into a threac'ed hole and pulling out the stringer. Because graphite j is relatively _ soft, the threads in the stringers had been stripped over the years by repeated use of the ex- . traction tool. In order to remove a stringer from the thermal column..the extraction tool had to be wedged into the elongated and deformed hole and the stringer gently wcrked out. In order to facilitate removal of the strirgers and to prevent further deterioration of' the holes, it was decided to drill and retap the graphite, f and then screw in metal coilthread inserts. These inserts are manufactured in three diffprent materials: stainless steel, inconel, and bronze. After a safety evaluation and revilaw by the Reactor Operations Committee, bronze coilthreads were chos6n and inserted. i - - - - - . _ ~ - _ - - - - _ _ - . _ _ . _ - _ _ _ - - ~ L,  ; o ,, - ,4 1 1 i-1 l lAe , , , IVi16- 4 1 (1 m 1 , a 1 q s . (2) _ Safety EYaluation O > The' coilthread inserts have greatly facilitated the removal ,; ' of the graphite thermal column stringers. They have'also l f:t 'i L L , -prevented any further erosion'of.the graphite holes.and hence l l reduced the potential for activated graphite contamination- ~ i ( on the reactor bay floor. Therefore, the. inserts have enhanced I safety. The handling of the graphite stringers in the' thermal. l column isinormally dictated by the gamma dose rates from  ! the reactor core. This mecns that before insertion or removal of stringers the reactor typically has to'be shut down.long enough to allow the radioactivity in the fuel'to decay to. j acceptable levels. This length of; time-(t' ypically over a - weekend) is sufficiently long to ensure that the Cu-64 in - a the bronze inserts has decayed. Therefore, there is no sig-nificant: increase in hand exposure due to the'use of these .[ inserts. Indeed, the total doses to the hand may'be reduced because of the fact that the stringers can now be removed ' more rapidly.

b. Addf tion of a New Air Flow Meter to the Stack Monitoring System (1) Description 1 The air flow meter which was originally supplied with the .,

OSTR stack monitor is located after the particulate ar.d gas ] monitoring chambers, but before the air pump. The OSTR staff suspected that the air-flow rate being Indicated by the orig-inal flow meter might not always be an accurate reflection of the air flow rate through the sampling line from the stack due to the fact that there could be small air leaks into the systm at gaskets and hose fittings. Clearly, it is- f important that the actual air flow rate through the sampling line be known and maintained at the proper rate in order to ensure that the sampling is isokinetic. Therefore, the ) staff decided to install an additional air flew meter immedi-ately upstream of the stack monitor which will indicate the actual air flow rate through-the sampling line. __ _ _ ___ _ ____. _ _ _ __] XV-17 (2) Safety Evaluation The addition of this extra air flow yneter enhances safety i by ensuring that there is isokinetic sampling of the reactor stack sffluent. This in turn will ensure an accurate collec-tion and assessment of any airborne particulate in the stack effluent stream. The second (original) air flow meter down- } stream of the monitoring chambers will continue to be used and will further enhance safety by giving an indication of any significant air leaks into the monitoring system. 2, 10 CFR 50.59 Changes to Reactor Procedures There was one change to reactor procedures which was reviewed and approved under 10 CFR 50.59 during the reporting period.

a. Revision of the General Limitations on Experiments (1) Description J

The sample encapsulation requirements which are specified in the General Limitations on Experiments in OSTR Operating Procedure (OSTROP) 18 were revised. The overall format of the limitations document was also changed in an effort to clarify the currently approved methods of encapsulation and other limitations. This resulted in two sections dealing with encapsulation. The first section gives a table of the methods for sample encapsulation which have been found by testing and experience to be satisfactory. The second section presents the way in which other, non-specified methods of encapsulation may be approved. (2) Safety Evaluation All of the methods of encapsulation listed in the tablo in the General Limitations on Experiments are ones which have been: a) tested ano shown to be satisfactory, or b) previously reviewed and approved for use by the Reactor Supervisor and ,g ' u:, R ,','<a..< . ]J > cv . L, EM ' w, e IV-18. ..o , 497 7 , t [' , the-SeniorHealthlPhysicist. As a result; the current changes j merely involved writing down already approved encapsulation methods and rewriting existing material in a manner which , . l would.make it clearer. .This in turn will enhanceLsafety, '{ as encapsulation requirethents and other 1Mitations on experi-ments will -be more understandable and thus introduce less chance for error. {

3. *10 CFR 50.59 Changes to Reactor'Experirrents There were three changes to reactor experiments which were made during' this reporting' period. -

a. Combination of Experiments B-3 and B-8 into a Revised Version fl of Experiment-B-3, ,.

(1) ' Description i- The 'old reactor experiments B-3 and .B-8 were essentially j identical except for the stated purpose of the irradiation.. Experiment B-3 was used for neutron activation analysis, and B-8 was.used for radioisotope production. After a review of'all of the reactor experiments it was recognized that these two experiments contained a great deal of duplication. 'i In. addition, it was also recognized that they did not specif-ically address irradiations in all of'the OSTR's available facilities. Therefore, it was decidert to combine the two experiments into a new B-3 which would allow irradiation s of a wide variety of sample materials'in any of the'0STR irradiation facilities without specifically mentioning the purpose of the irradiation. (2) Safety Evaluation ] Experiments B-3 and B-8 had been used safely for about 20 years. The new B-3 retained most of the original text, but eliminated duplication and references to the purpose of the l irradiation. These deletions in no way reduced the safety i 1 IV-19 l l of the revised experiment, because no safety requirements l were eliminated, and the reason why samples are being irradi-ated has no bearing on reactor and radiation safety. All  ! of the original, as well as several additional experimental ll controls, are contained in the revised experiment description. The deletion of certain details relating to small cadmium covers in no way reduces safety because tests and the repeated use of such covers over 20 years of operation have shown that for all facilities (except for the sampleholding dunany element, which still requires an analysis) there is a negli-gible effect on reactivity. 1

b. Revisien of Experiment B-11 j f

(1) Description The original B-11 experiment was written for a specific appli-cation involving the irradiation of natural uranium for nuclear I structure and recction studies. The experiment description { i included a number of very specific details with respect to the hn Ith physics aspects of the experiment. It was, there-fore, decided to rewrite B-11 to make it more general so that it could be used to accommodate irradiation of materials j containing small quantitites of uranium and/or thorium in f any of the standard OSTR irradiation facilities. The new j B-11 is complementary to the revised B-3. l i i (2) Safety Evaluation ( The health physics precautions and details in the previous l B-11 experiment are not incioded in the new B-11 because ) l they are now in a nember of standard Radiation Center docu-  ! l 1 ments. The procedures in these documents are at least as j { stringent as those in the old B-11 and hence there is no j reduction in the 16 vel of safety as a result of this change. ) l The safety evaluation of experiment 8-3 is applicable to f i I i _ . - - . - - - - __- _ -- _ . _ _ - _ ___ J 1 , ~ 1 s I ' r i 'L IV-20 , , 4 L: h o this experiment because most of the standard paragraphs' with respect-to limitations are the same. The details of the safety analysis calculations which determined the limits. L in the-new B-11 experiment are included as Attachnent A to ! the experiment. There are two main considerations which < c. p limit the quantities of uranium and thorium which may be irradiated. These'are: a) the total radioactivity of iodine L isotopes 131 through 135, and b)'the heat generation from k the fission process. During' the isnalysis it was determined that the most limiting of these was the fission heat produc-tion and the resulting temperature rise. fi L From actual. experiments.it war, determined that polyethylene vials remain intact at 110 C and begin to nelt at 130'C with , l complete melting occurring at 150*C, In addition, it is known that the temperature in the OUTR rotating rack can reach 70 C. Therefore, the maximum quantity of uranium or thorium allowed in tamples encapsulated in polyethylene was limited to that which would result in a temperature rise  ; I of 30 C using the' conservative assumptions outlined-in Attach-ment A to the experiment. '( Experiments with sealed quartz vials in aluminum TRIGA tubes showed no change in their condition even when heated up to ] 600'C. The melting point of aluminum is 660*C. Therefore, the maximum quantity of uranium or thorium allcwed in samples q encapsulated in quartz, which in turn is placed in aluminum tubes.was limited to that which would result in a temperature rise of 500 C using the assumptions outlined in Attachment A to the experiment. All of the assumptions used in the calculation of iodine inventory and fission heating are conservative, and it is l expected that actual inventories and temperature rises will ' j be much less than those calculated. l l l u_=___._______.___________ . _ _ _j r y' > < < . ,i 2 .\ l1 c- , . o , , . .. .. + ) IV-21 jy < s . [ r- + c. Revision.of; Experiment 0-12 l\ (1) Description ~ Experiment.B-12 was revised to make it consistent with the 'other general reactor experiments. Most of the changes merely ' , involved a change of wording to incorporate many of the stan-dard paragraphs used in the B-3 revision. The specific con- 'dttion' requiring approval. of exploratory programs t'y the Reactor Supervisor, tne Senior Health Physicist and the Chair. man'oftheReactorOperationscommittee(kOC)wasdeleted because of its inconsistency with other current procedures.- (2) Safety Esaluation Most of the wording changes were minor hnd did nbt change q the intent of the experiment. Other ch.snges' involved the , incorporation of many'of the standard paragraphs used in the revised B-3, and therefore the favorable safety Evaluation-for that experiment is'also applicable here., The deletion j of the con.iition requiring approval of exploratory programs m .bv the' Reactor Supervisor, the Senior Health Physicist and i the Chairman of the ROC will in no way reduce sefety because the experiment will either be one which meets all. of the~- 1 old requirete :s listed in the experiment, or it will have  ! 'to be spec 16'?.y approved by the full ROC In addition, the Reactor Supervisor and the Seni n Health Physicist still j must approve any Irradiation Request submitted under this l - experiment, and therefore these individuals are not removed ,4 from the approval p'athway for experiments pe-formed under j the provisions of experiments B-12. , i l l l 4 t Y ' .IV-22 2 ,. lei Surveillance and Maintenance c ,

Introduction l This section of the report deals with the radiation protection program at the-0SU Radiation Center. The purpose of this program is to ensure the safe use of radiation and radioactive materials in the Center's teaching, research, and service activities, and in-a similar manner to ensure the fulfillment of all regulatory requirements of the state of Oregon, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Comission, and other regulatory agencies. The comprehensive nature of the program is shown in Table V.A.1, which lists the program's major radiation protection requirements and the performance frequency for each item. i The radiation protection program is implemented by a staff. consisting of a Senior Health Physicist, a Health Physicist, a Radiation Protection Technologist, and one to five part-time Radiation Protection Technicians (see Part II.F). Assistance is also provided by the reactor operations group, the neutron activation analysis group, the Scientific Instrument Technician, and the Radiation Center Director. The data contained in the follouing sections have been prepared to comply with the current requirements of Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) Facility License No. R-106 (Docket No. 50-243) and the Technical Specifications contained in that license. The material has also been prepared in compliance with Oregon Department of Energy Rule No. 345-1 30-010, which requires an annual report of environmental effects due ] to research reactor operations. A summary of required data for the j OSTR is provided in Part I.E for quick reference., ) Within the scope of Oregon State University's radiation protection program, it is standard operating policy to maintain all releases of radioactivity to the unrestricted environment and all exposures to radiation and radioactive materials at levels which are consistently "as low as reasonably achievable" (ALARA).

Environmental Releases ] The annual reporting requirements in the OSTR Technical Specifications include the neac" for 'a summary of the nature and amount of radioactive effluents released or discharged to the environs beyond the effective control of the licensee, as measured at, or prior to, the point of-such release or discharge." The liquid and gaseous effluents released, and the solid waste generated and transferred are discussed briefly below. These effluents are also summarized in detail in the designated tables.

1. Liquid Effluents Released _

Whenever possible, liquid effluent is analyzed for radioactivity content at the time it is released to the collection point (a holdup tank). However, liquids are always analyzed for radioactivity before the holdup tank is discharged into the unrestricted area (the sanitary sewer system). For this reporting period, the Radiation Center and reactor made only two liquid effluent releases, both to the sanitary sewer. All Radiation Center and reactor facility liquid effluent data pertaining to these two releases are contained in Table V.B.1.

2. Airborne Effluents Released Airborne effluents are discussed in terms of the gaseous component and the part1culate component.
a. Gaseous Effluents Gaseous effluents from the reactor facility are monitored by the reactor stcck effluent monitor. Monitoring is continuous l ('i.e., prior to, during, and after reactor operations). It l is normal for the reactor facility stack offluent monitor to begin operation as one of the first systems in the morninc and to cease operation as one of the last systems at the end of the day.

k' Evaluation of the detectable particulate radioactivity in the stack effluent confirmed its origin as naturally-occurring radon daughter products, within a range of approximately 1 x 10-9 pC1/cc to 3 x 10-11 uCi/cc. This par?.iculate radio-activity is predominantly lead-214 and bismuth-214, which is not associated with reactor operations. i There was no release of particulate effluents with a half-life { greater than 8 days and therefore the reporting of the average f concentration of radioactive particulate with half-lives j greater than eight days is not applicable. j

3. Solid Waste RelecLed Data for the radioactive material in the solid waste generated /

and transferred during this reporting period are summarized in Table V.B.3 for both the reactor facility and the Radiation Center. Solid radioactive waste is routinely transferred on::lte (within the Radiation Center building) to the OSU Radiation Safety Office. Until this waste is disposed of by the Radiation Safety Office, it is held along with other campus radioactive waste on the Uni-versityts state of Oregon radioactive materials license. Solid radioactive waste is disposed of by the University Radia-tion Safety Office by transfer to the University's radioactive waste disposal vendor, U.S. Ecology Company, for burial at their installation located near Richland, Washington. 1 } l 1 i V-7 ) Teble V.B.3 Annual Summary of Solid Waste Generated and Transferred l for the Year July 1, 1987 through June 30, 1988 q Volume of Total Quantity I Dates of f Solid Waste Detectable of Radioactivity Shipment to  !

Vc8 i , C. Personnel Doses The OSTR annual reporting requirements include the need to present I a sumary of the radiation exposure received by facility personnel and visitors. For the purposes of this report the summm y has been expanded to include all Radiatioit Center personnel who may have received exposure to radiation. These personnel have been categorized into six groups: facility operating personnel, key facility research per-sonnel, physical plant maintenance personnel, students in laboratory classes, security personnel, and visitors. Facility operating personnel include the reactor operations and health physics staff. The dosimeters used to monitor these individuals include monthly X-ray, beta, and gamma [Xs(G)] film badges, quarterly track-etch / albedo neutron dosimeters, either monthly or quarterly TLD (finger) extremity dosimeters, and pocket ion chambers. Key facility research personnel consist of Radiation Center staif, faculty, and graduate students who perform research using the reactor, reactor-activated materials, or other research facilities present at the Centor. The individual dosimetry requirements for these per-sonnel will vary with the type of research being conducted, but will generally include a monthly or quarterly X8(G) film badge and TLD (finger) extremity dosimeters. If the possibility of neutron exposure exists, researchers are also monitored with a track-etch / albedo neutron dosimeter. Physical Plant maintenance personnel are normally issued a gamma sen-sitive pocket ion chamber as their basic monitoring device. A few Physical Plant personnel who routinely perform maintenance on mechanical or refrigeration equipment are issued a quarterly Xs(G) film badge and other dosimeters as appropriate for the work being performed. V-9 Students attending laboratory classes are issued quarterly Xs(G) film badges, TLD (finger) extremity dosimeters, and track-etch / albedo or l other neutron dosimeters, as appropriate. Students who attend a one time laboratory denionstration and do not handle radioactive materials are issued a gamma sensitive pocket ion chamber. OSU campus security and police personnel are issued a quarterly XB(G) film badge to be used during their patrols of the Radiation Center i and reactor facility. Visitorst depending on the locations visited, may be issued a gamma i sensitive pocket ion chamber. OSU Radiation Center policy does not normally allow people in the visitor category to become actively in- i volved in the use or handling of radioactive materials.  ! An annual summary of the radiation doses received by each of the above six groups is shown in Table V.C.1. There were no personnel radiation exposures in excess of the limits in 10 CFR 20 during the reporting period.

Survey Data The OSTR Technical Specifications require an annual summary of the q radiation levels and levels of contamination observed during routine surveys performed at the facility. However, the Center's comprehensive area radiation monitoring program encompasses the Radiation Center y as well as the OS'TR, and therefore monitoring results for both facil-ities are reported.

1. Area _ Radiation Dosim_eters j Area monitoring dosimeters capable of integrating the radiation .

dose are locgte:t et strategic positions throughout the reactor facility cnd Radiatior. Center. All of these dosimeters contain at least a standard personnel-type beta-gamma film pack. In addition, for key locations in the reactor facility and for certain Radiation Center laboratories a CR-39 plastic track-etch neutron detector has also been included in th9 monitoring package. Figure V.D.1 shows the locations of the dosimeters in the reactor building i and Radiation Center. The total dose equivalent recorded on the various reactor facility dosimeters ~is listed in Table Y.D.1 and the total dose equivalent recorded on the Radiation Center area dosimeters is listed in Teble V.D.2. Gqnerally, the cnaracters following the MRC (Monitor kadistion Center) designator show the roc i number or location. The highest r'ecorded dose equivalent was measured in B119A,-the shielded sealed source storage room (siut Cell), but even the level recorded at this location corresponds te an average dose rate of less than one millirem per hour.

2. Routine Radiation end Contamination Suryeys The Center's program for routine radiation and contamination surveys consists of d&ily, weekly and mor.thly inessurements throughout the TRIGA reactor facility'and Radiation Center- The frequency 4

arr ed o t a art ar 1 t o on e f tr ch indicate that'surveillar.ce over a specific area at a dcfined tre-quency is desirable. I The primary purpose of'the routine radiation and contamination 8 survey program is to assure regularly scheduled surveillance over selected work areas in th 'eactor facility and in the Radiation Cer3ter, in order to provide current ard characteristic data on the status of' radiological conditions. A second objective of the program is to assure frequent on-the-spot personal observations , (along with recorded data), which will provido advance warning , of needed corrections and thereby help to ensure the safe use and handling of radi6 tion sources and radioactive inatorials. A third objective, which is really derived from successful execution of the firrt two objectives, is to gather and document information which will help to ensure that all phases of the operational and radiation protection programs are in line with.the goal of keeping 811 radiation doses to personnel and releases of radioactivity to the environment "as low as reasonably achievable" (ALARA) The annual tummary of radiation and contamination levels measured during routine facility surveys for the applicable reporting period is given in Table V.D.3.  ; l l c , 1 l 1 V-16 Table V.D.3 Annual Surecry of Radiation Levels and Contaminatici, Leve'Is Observed Within the Reactor Facility and Radiation Center During Routine Radiation Surveys for the Year July 1, 1987 through June 30, 1988 Contamination I WSole Body I Radiation Levels Levels (1) (mrem /hr) (dpm/100 cm2) Accessible Location Average Naximum Average Maxim'en (See Figure V.D.1) TR1G_A Reactor Facility: l Reactor Top (0104)- 1 125 (500 1786(2) I <500 Reactor 2nd Deck Area (0104) B 61 <500 l <1 100 <500 <500 ) General Reactor Room (0104) <500 <500 Beam Port Facilities (D104) <1 <$ 5 <500 Sample Handling Area (0104) <1 100 <500 Class Experiments (0104,0302) <1 2 <500 <500 Demineralized Tanb - Outside Shielding (0104A) <1 8 <500 <500 Particulate Filter-- <500 Outside Shielding (0104A) <1 1 <500  ; Radiation Center: NAA Counting Rooms (A146,B100,C134) <1 3 <500 <500 Health Physics Laboratory <1 <1 <500 <500 60(A138) C0 Irradiator Room (Al28) <1 3 <500 <500 Radiation Research Labs (8114,B122,8124,B132,C130) <1 8 <500 <600 Radioactive Source Storage j <1 22 <500 <S00 i (B119A) Student Chemistry Laboratory f <1 1 <500 <500 , (C118) l Student Countieg Laboratories (C120,C126) <1 1 <500 <500 Operations Counting Room <1 <1 <500 <500 (C123) Pneumatic Transfer Laboratory <1 4 <500 <500 (0102) l .I (1) <500 dpm/100 cm2 = Less than the lower limit of detection for the port 6ble survey instrument used.

a. On-site Monitoring l

Monitors used in the on-site gamma environmental radiation 'I monitoring program at the Radiation Center consist of the reactor. facility stack effluent monitor described in sectf on - Y.B22 and nine environmental monitoring stations located on s -l the fence surrounding the reactor. facility (s'ee Figure V.E.1). . .? These stations consist of a standard metal mailbox attached { to the fence at a height of four feet. ]i l Each fence environmental statior, is equipped with an 030 supplied , ] and processed TLD area monitor (normally three Harshaw 7LiF l TL0b700 chips per monitof in a plastic " LEG 0" mount). These f monitors are exchanged and processed quarterly. The' total number of TLD samples for the reporting period was 108 (9 j stations x 3 chips per station per quarter x 4 quarters per l year). A summary of this TLD da ca is shown in Table V.E.1. ] l Each fence environmental station also utilized.a-CaSO4 TLD- '] monitoring packet supplied and processed by Radiation Detection Company (R.D. Co.), Sunnyvale, California. Each P..D. Co. j packet contained two CaSO4 TL0s and was P.xchanged quarterly { for a total of 72 samples during the reporting period (9 statfons f x 2 TLDs per station per quarter x 4 quarters per year). ) A summary of Radiatien Detection Company's TLD data is also - shown in Table V.E.1. i I, l 1 V-18 1 . Monthly measurements of the direct gama exposure rate, in -microroentgens per hour .(pR/hr), were also made at each fence l monitoring station. These measurements were made with an I Ebarline Instrument Company micro-R per hour survey meter containing a 1" x 1" Nal detector. t i 1 A total of 108 pR/hr measurements were taken (9 stations per mo1th x 12 months per year). The total calculated dose equivalent ' was determincd by averaging the 12 separate pR/hr measurements, inultiplying this average by 8760 hours per year, and then I by converting microroentgens to millirem. A summary of this data is shown in Table V.E.1. l In addition to the dosimeters previously mentioned, each fence environmental monitoring station also c0ntains, two, O to 200 l mil 11 roentgen, gamma-sensitive integrating ionization chambers {self-reading pocket dositaeter type). These ionization chambers are read every month, but are used only as backep monitors for each ttation. j l From Table V.E.1 we have concluded that the doses recorded , by the dosimeters on the TRIGA facility fence can be attributed to natural backgrou'1d radiation, whicn is about 110 mrem per . year for Oregon (Refs. 1, 2). j b, Off-site Monitoring The off-site g&iama environmental rediition monitoring program consists of cwenty monitoring stations surrounding the Radiation ) Center (see Figure V.E.2) and one station located 5 miles i to the south at the Corvallis Airport. Each off-site radiation monitoring stetion is equipped with an 05U supplied and processed TLD monitor. Each monitor con-sists of three (MRCTE-11 has sir) Harshaw 7 tiF TLD-700 chips in a plastic " LEG 0" mount. The mount is sealed it, a PVC tiabe 1 Figure V.E.1 Area Radiation Monitor Locations for the i TRIGA Reactor, and en the TRIGA Reactor Area Fence -) 1 N- 1 PERIMETER FENCE _ l \ _ j i  : e e 1 ^ i i e MRC FE3 MRC FE2  ! 0FFICE - l l BUILDING S MRC FE4 MRC FE19 F <? . c 3 MRC TSE F-( MRCTNE e e R A DI ATION l '.l MR6 TEN g TRIGA 1 REACTOR- CENTER BAY BUILDIN G L i MRCTWN $ MRCTSW e e - j- /.

These monitors are exchanged and processed quar-terly, and the total number of TLD samples during the current 1 year reporting period was 226 (20 stations x 3 chips psr station per querter x 4 quarters per year plus 1 station x 6 chips per station per quarter x 4 quarters per year). A  : sumr.ary of the OSU off-site TLD data is provided in Table V.E.2. - Thirteen of the off-site radiation monitoring stations also have a tMn weather-tight aiuminum box munted to the post at approximately four feet above the ground (these stations do not have an "L" at the end of the station identification number). The aluminun: box contains a packet wn.h two CaSO4 TLDs supplied and processed quarterly by the Raciation Detection Company. The total number of R.D. Co. TLD samples for the raporting period was 104 (13 stations x 2 TLDs per station l per quarter x 4 quarters per year). A summary of Radiation l Detection Company's TLD data for the of f-site monitoring sta- l tions is alsc given in Table V.E.2. l Each of the thirteen monitoring statioiis with an aluminum box alt,o contains two O to 200 milliroentgen, gamma-sensitive, integrating ionization chambers (seif-reading pocket dosimeter type). These ionization enambers are read every math and are used only as backup monitors for each station. Data from these devices are not included in this report. In a manner similar to that described for the on-site fence stations, monthly measurements of the direct gamma exposure rate in microroentgens per hour ( R/hr) ere cade at each of the twenty-one off-site radiation monitoring stations. As 1 noted before, these measurements are made with an Eberline Instrument Company micrc-R per hour survey meter containing a 1" x 1" Nal detector. A total of 252 pK/hr measurements were made during the reporting period (21 stations per month i l l _ _. _ ___ _-. _ _U V-23 1 x 12 months per. year). The total dose equivalent for each , j st: tion was determined by averaging the 12 separate pR/hr, j measurements, multiplying this average by 8760 heyrs' per ' year, l and then by converting microroentgens' to millirem. A sumnary of this data is given in Table V.E.2. ., After a review of the data in Table V.E.2, we have concluded that, like the dosimeters on the TRIGA facility fence, til of the dose.s recorded by the off-site dosimeters can be at-tributed to natural background radiation, whic~n is about 110 ] rtrem per year for Oregon (Refs. 1, 2).

2. Toil Water, and Vegetation Surveys The soil, water and vegetation . monitoring program consists of the collection and analysis of a limited number of samples in each category on a quarterly basis. The program monitors any possible radioactive material releases from either the TRIGA reactor facility or the OSU Radiation Center, and also helps indicate the general trend of the radioactivity concentration in each of the various substances sampled. See Figure V.E.2 for the locations of the sampling stations for grass (G), soil (S), water (W) and rainwater (RW) campies. Most locations are within a 1000 foot radies of reactor facility and the Radiation Center. In general, simples are collected over a local area having a radius of about ten feet at the positions indicated in Figure V E.2.

There are a toth1 of 22 quarterly sampling locations; four soil locations, four water locations (when water is available), and fourteen vegetation locations. The total number of camples possible during the reporting period is 88 (16 soil samples,16 water samples, i and 56 vegetation samples). 1 The annual average concentration of total net beta radioactivity (minus tritium) for samples collected at each environmental soil, water, and vegetotion sampling location (sampling station) is I L a I [ - < L .)' , V-24 . ,u Table'V.E,2 O'. ..

Average Corvallis area natural background using Radiation Detection Company TLDs totals 97 mrem for the same period. (3) OSU off-site totals include a measured natural background contribution of 87 1 11 mrem. -(4) i values represent the standard deviation of the total value at the 95% confi-dence level. i J V-25 l listed in Table V.E.3. Calculation of the total net beta disinte-I gration rate incorporates subtraction of enly the counting system l background from the gross beta counting rate, followed by applica-( tion of an appropriate counting system efficiency. l The annual average concentrations were calculated using sample results which exceeded the lower limit of detection (LLD), except that sample results which were less than or equal to the LLO were I averaged in at the corresponding LLD concentration. Table V.E.4 gives the average LLD concentration and the range of LLD values l for each sample category for the current reporting period. , l As used in this report, the LLD has been defin,ed as the amount ] or concentration of radioactive material (in terms of uCi per j unit volume or unit mass) in a representative sample, which has ) a 95% probability of being detected. , Identification of specific radionuclides is not routinely carried l out as part of this monitoring program, but would be conducted if unusual radioactivity levels above natural background were detected. However, from Table V.E.3 it can be seen that the levels q of radioactivity detected were consistent with naturally occurring radioactivity and comparable to values reported in previous years. ) { i l 1 4 i l 1 i l 1 1 l l .\ . , ,1 q. , t ' V ,, cu - ,p , o .

Summary  ; The Radiation Center offers a large variety of resources for teaching, J research and-service related to radiation and radioactive materials. ') Some of these are discussed in detail in other parts of this report, j The purpose of this pr.rt it, to mnenerize the teaching, research and ) service efforts carried out during the current reporting period. ) J B. 3 aching Use of the R6diation Center and reactor to support OSUts academic programs is considered to be our most important responsibility. Imple- l mentation of this support occurs through direct involvement of the Center's.staft and facilities in ths teaching programs of various departments and through our participation in University research pro-grcms. For example, during the current reporting period the Radiation I Cent 6r accommodated 26 OSU academic classes involving 10 different academic departments, and conducted 2 reactor operator training pro- J g rams . In addition, portions of classes from other Oregon.universit-les were also support by the Radiation Center. The OSU teaching programs utilized 359 hours of reactor time, which equates to about 30% of the available teaching hours in a normal academic year. Tables III.A.1, III.A.2, and III.E.1 plus .section VI.F provide more detailed information on the use of the Radiation Center and reactor for instruction and training. C. Researc_h and Service Almost all Radiatioil Center research end service work is tracked by means of a project system. When a request for facility ute is received, a numbee is assigned to that project and a project sheet is generated. This sheet includes such information. as the project number, data about the person and institution recpesting the work, a description of the  ! project, Radiation Center resources needed, estimated costs for the project, and the funding source. I i VI-2 l j Table VI.C.1 provides a summary of institutions and agencies which used the Radiation Center during this reporting period and includes , additional information about the number of acedemic personnel involved, ) the number of students involved and the number of uses logged for each organization. Details on graduate student thesis research which used the Radiation Center are given in Table VI.C.2. The major table in this section is Table VI.C.3. This table provides an essentially complete listing of the research and service projects carried out during tnis reporting period and lists information relating to the personnel and institution involved, the type of project, and thi funding agency. Projects which used the reactor are indicated by an astorisk. Due to the fact that the project system is relatively new, not all of the work done by the Radiation Center and it staff have been included as projects. However, much of this work is summarized in cther parts of this report. In addition to the listing of specific projects in Table VI.C.3. key technical areat representing major Radiation Center activities in rescarch and service have also been highlighted in this part.
