Marked For Official Use Only but given the passage of time and introduction of related information into the public domain this limitation is understood to no longer apply. From the Introduction: Forty years after the introduction of nuclear weapons information is still incomplete concerning the effects on man from ionizing radiation produced by those weapons. the information is important because radiation adversely affect both the combat performance effectiveness and the survivability of personnel. It is hoped that further knowledge will be gained from research such as that conducted by the Armed Forces Radiobiology Research Institute AFRRI. Research to define and manage the effects of ionizing radiation on military personnel is the primary responsibility of AFRRI. AFRRI a unit of the Defense Nuclear Agency DNA is the principal radiobiology research laboratory for the Department of Defense This Five-Year Research Plan is developed in response to the currently defined requirements of the U.S. Armed Services in the area of radiation research. This is the third generation of a DoD Radiation Research Plan. This Plan presents a fully integrated DoD Radiobiology Research Program by including the AFRRI in-house research effort as well as the complementary DNA Biomedical Effects STBE Directorate effort with specific research areas of the Army and the Air Force. Since the development of the first Five-Year Research Plan the AFRRI Board of Governors has required that the Five-Year Research Plan be evaluated and priorities by an operational and medical representative of each Surgeon General. This group the Radiation Research Review Committee has met numerous times since 1981 to recommend changes to the Five-Year Research Plan most recently on 31 October 1985. The changes recommends by the Radiation Research Review Committee have been incorporated and the research priorities established. The major priorities are: Radioprotection Section III Human Response Section IV Quantitation and Preservation of Combat Performance Section V Reconstitution and Preservation of Hemopoietic and Immune Function Section VI Treatment of Radiation Casualties Section VII and Mechanisms of Radiation Sensitivity Section VIII.

197785184New York: American Physical Society 1977. Presumed First Edition First printing thus. Wraps. Good/No dust jacket issued. Format is approximately 8.5 inches by 11 inches by 1.5 inches. Three hole punched. Various paginations. Front cover has wear soiling a blacked out portion name and an edge tear. Other pages have small blacked out portions at the top. This report was to be published in teh Review of Modern Physics per cover. The APS Study Group found existing technology and straightforward extensions sufficient for managing nuclear wastes but unresolved economic institutional and political questions cloud the commercial use of plutonium. The study group consisted of a dozen physicists chemists engineers and geologists. Contents include: Summary of the Study; Introduction; Primer on the Fuel Cycle; LWR Fuel Cycle--Technology and Economics of Reprocessing and Recycle; LWR Fuel Cycle--Assessment of Radiation Exposures; LWR Fuel Cycle--Safeguards; High-Level and TRU Waste Management; Advanced Fuel Cycle Alternatives; Institutional and Organizational Issues of the Nuclear Fuel Cycle and Waste Management Program and Appendixes. Utilization of nuclear fuels and management of nuclear wastes have become major topics of public discussion. Under the auspices of the American Physical Society this study was undertaken as an independent evaluation of technical issues in the use of fissionable materials in nuclear fuel cycles together with their principal economic environmental health and safety implications. Reprocessing and recycling in light water reactors were examined along with technical measures proposed as possible safeguards; advanced reactor fuel cycles were also studied for their resource and safeguards implications. Much of the work of the group centered on the principal alternatives for disposal of radioactive wastes and control of effluents. The group examined the research and development programs sponsored by government agencies along with associated relationships among agencies and between government and private industry. Available information was also considered on nuclear fuel resources and on important economic and environmental aspects of the various fuel cycles in order to strive for a balanced comparative study. The report presents many conclusions on various aspects of the nuclear fuel cycles and also provides recommendations concerning present utilization and future improvement of fuel cycle technology.

The Department of Defense led the radiological cleanup of Enewetak Atoll in the Marshall Islands. The combined federal effort cost about $100 million and required an on-atoll task force numbering almost 1000 people for three years 1977-1980. The departments of Defense Energy and Interior were involved in this project. The DOD organized three separate efforts in support of the cleanup: Removal and lagoon-dumping of uncontaminated debris and structures removal and crater-entombment of radiological contaminated debris and structures and excision and crater-entombment of radiological contaminated soil from the islands. This document is not listed/identified on the ENEWETAK ATOLL CLEANUP DOCUMENTS web page which is an official U.S. Government web page supported by the Defense Threat Reduction Agency. This chapter discusses Operation Sandstone Rehabilitation and Construction Activities Operation Greenhouse Operation Ivy Operation Castle Operation Redwing Operation Hardtack Moratorium and provides a Summary of Test Effects. There is a discussion of the Effects of Test Program on 26 individual islands. There is a discussion of the effect of Atoll experience on cleanup. and the final portion addresses Enewetak Interim 1958-1972 and Projects Hues Pace and Expo. An example of the information content is from pages 31 and 32: "Fallout from 16 events caused Eleleron to be ranked second of all islands of the atoll in H-1 hour exposure having accumulated 10643 R/hr. Most of the land mass receiving this exposure has been blasted or eroded away. Soil sampling showed surface activity to be relatively low and the one profile sample displayed a homogeneous distribution with depth this being considered to be the result of hydraulic influences."

First edition of this exceedingly rare slope stability report for a Pacific Power & Light Co.’s proposed nuclear power plant to have been constructed at West Roosevelt Washington along the edge of Lake Umatilla in the Columbia River Gorge as part of a group of similar nuclear power plants with the proposed Trojan Nuclear Power plant licensed to run beginning in 1976 at 1100 Megawatts. PP&L together with PG&E had previously examined 2 sites near Arlington OR but then shifted to this site near the Columbia River down from the Hanford Sites later developed for the WPPSS projects. This report focuses on the stability of the slopes to the north of the proposed site and estimate the effect of the design earthquake on slope stability and plant safety. This required nine additional borings geologic mapping of the area identification of basalt outrcops by chemical petrographic and remnant magnetism analyses lab studies liquefaction analyses along with construction of a 3-D model of the site. Several nuclear power plants had been proposed and received geotechnical studies in the Pacific Northwest following up the Trojan Nuclear Power Plant constructed upon the site of the former Trojan Powder Co. plant site as well as adjacent properties beginning in 1967.

195876552Cape Canaveral: N.p. 1958-1973. This was the personal archive of missile installation foreman Joseph H. Lendle and the majority of it relates to Operation Hardtack I Project 9.31a. Project 9.3a was a series of U.S. nuclear tests conducted in 1958. Specifically Project 9.3a was responsible for the preparation and launch of two Redstone missiles carrying nuclear warheads for high-altitude detonations known as Shots Teak and Orange. These tests were part of Operation Newsreel a subset of Hardtack I focusing on high-altitude nuclear explosions and EMPs.The primary goal of Project 9.3a was to study the effects of nuclear detonations at high altitudes including their impact on communications electromagnetic pulse EMP generation and atmospheric phenomena. The Redstone missiles were modified to carry nuclear devices to altitudes of approximately 76.8 kilometers 47.7 miles. Each missile was also equipped with instrumented pods designed to collect data on pressures thermal and gamma radiation neutron flux and EMP effects. Both missiles were launched from the Johnston Atoll in the Pacific. Shot Teak was a failure and exploded directly over the Johnston Atoll but Shot Orange was an unqualified success. Despite Shot Teak's high-altitude detonation at 252000 feet the explosion was visible from Hawaii with observers reporting an aurora-like effect and a red shell that appeared to pass overhead. The EMP caused a temporary blackouts in Australia and Hawaii.The archive consists of includes 2 black and white snapshots of operations crew and the missile both 5 x 7†3 certificates honoring the participation of Joseph Frank Lendle 1921-2017 lead foreman of Operation Hardtack 2 typed letters signed to Lendle both signed by Kurt H. Debus Director Missile Firing Lab a birthday card from the Launch Operations Directorate a 2 pp. press release for The Florida Times-Union 3 printed memos 5 printed letters with facsimile signatures congratulating Operation Hardtack personnel for their excellent work including one from Dr. Werner van Braun. Sheets generally toned and with staple holes at upper left corners but generally quite nice. One "Certificate of Participation" has a two inch tear and three holes at the upper blank margin where pushpins once held to to a wall. Also included is a later plaque 1975 honoring Lendle’s contribution to the NASA rocket programs listing the launches that he participated in. He participated in 129 launches including those of Redstone Juniper "C' Jupiter Redstone-Mercury Juno Saturn Apollo and Skylab. Lendle worked in the space program for nearly 28 years after his military service in WWII. N.p. unknown
196085542Princeton New Jersey: Princeton University Press 1960. First Edition. Octavo. 24cm. Publisher's terracotta cloth titled and ruled in black and gilt to spine. Dustjacket. xx; 651pp. Very light wear and bumping to spine ends and extremities strong and bright; internally clean and fresh; in a grey dustjacket with some minor edgewear and shallow chipping to the spine ends and edges a hint of toning to the spine panel and some light soiling and wear to the white rear panel. A very good handsome copy indeed.<br /> <br /> Kahn's deeply influential analysis of the spectre of thermonuclear war partly intended as a counterpoint to von Neumann's apocalyptic concept of MAD or Mutually Assured Destruction. Kahn posits the strategic possibility of a 'winnable' nuclear conflict questions the solidity of a peace structure based on thermonuclear threat and makes the highly controversial for the time suggestion that the spectre of thermonuclear conflict itself isn't actually that terrifying and that the spectre of it is really what most people get worked up about. Kahn is an analytical strategist his conclusions are based in a zone in which emotion only plays the smallest part and upon publication the book elicited some powerful reactions from readers uncomfortable with the potential at the time inevitable deaths of millions being presented in the form of graphs and calm inexorable strategic detachment. Hubert Humphrey's contemporary review of the work stated "New thoughts particularly those which contradict current assumptions are always painful for the human mind to contemplate. On Thermonuclear War is filled with such thoughts."<br /> <br /> Perhaps as inevitable antidote to the grimly sardonic nature of his analysis Kahn's work earned him a place in the eternal halls of pop culture being the impromptu scriptwriter for the character of General Buck Turgidson in "Dr. Strangelove" and with popular understanding of his theories featuring prominently in fiction from Tom Clancy to "Wargames." Kahn is also credited with the coining of the phrases "Megadeath" as a unit of fatality and "Wargasm" describing the focus of the military personnel he worked with both of which have seeped into common usage. Kahn's borderline crude delivery combining horrifying statistics with jokes about how women will come to love their two-headed babies was deliberately jarring and intended to be equally disruptive to those locked in fearful uninformed paralysis and those working towards the wargasm. The reception of his book was one of the catalyzing elements that led Kahn to be a co-founder of The Hudson Institute after his work at RAND reached its inevitable close. Regardless of how divisive Kahn was both in theory and delivery "On Thermonuclear War" ranks as one of the most important 20th century works of strategic analysis right down to the title being an updated and expanded nod to von Clausewitz's "On War.
