COver has some wear and soiling. ix 1 . 193 1 p. References. Diagrams. Maps. Illustrations. Index. Most of the earth's population would survive the immediate horrors of a nuclear holocaust but what long-term climatological changes would affect their ability to secure food and shelter This sobering book considers the effects of fine dust from ground-level detonations of smoke from widespread fires and of chemicals released into the atmosphere. The authors use mathematical models of atmospheric processes and data from natural situations-e.g. volcanic eruptions and arctic haze-to draw their conclusions. This is the most detailed and comprehensive probe of the scientific evidence published to date. National Academies Press paperback

198965251National Academies Press 1989. Trade paperback. Very good. No dust jacket as issued. References. Abbreviations. x 146 p. In this volume the National Research Council examines problems arising throughout government-owned contractor-operated facilities in the United States engaged in activities to build nuclear weapons. The book draws conclusions about and makes recommendations for the health and safety of the nuclear weapons complex and addresses pressing environmental concerns. In addition the book examines the future of the complex and offers suggestions for its modernization. Several explanatory appendixes provide useful background information on the functioning of the complex criticality safety plutonium chemistry and weapons physics. In the aftermath of the accident at the Chernobyl nuclear power station the Department of energy DOE asked the National Research Council to examine possible implications of the accident for the large reactors operated by the Department. The reactors included those then operating at the Savannah River Site in South Carolina and at the Hanford Nuclear Reservation in the state of Washington. In response the National Research Council issued reports in 1987 and 1988 that focused on a variety of safety management and technical issues. In the meantime concerns developed with regard to the other nonreactor facilities in the nuclear weapons complex. As a result of these concerns Congress directed the Secretary of Energy to request that the National Research Concil report its conclusions and recommendations concerning health safety and environmental issues arising throughout the complex and steps that would enhance the safety of operations at the facilties. This report fulfills the Secretary's request. National Academies Press paperback

90932Xian China: Northwest Institute of Nuclear Technology NINT. Unknown edition or printing. Single sheet printed on one side. Very good. The format is approximately 8.5 inches by 11 inches. This is a hardcopy of a color vugraph. On the left side are to photographs. The top has a group of people walking in a tunnel and the lower on is an image of a tunnel. On the right side is a track overland of the tunnel's direction. The middle section is a hand drawn and captioned Tunnel Plan view including a Cross Section drawn at the lower right corner with some dimensions. The track goes from a brick face to the shot point. NINT was the institution responsible for conducting and analyzing China’s nuclear testing program. Since China signed the CTBT NINT has emerged with the primary responsibility for China’s field implementation of the technologies for the International Monitoring System IMS. An adit is a near-horizontal entrance or tunnel driven into a hillside or mountain for underground operations featuring only one opening to the surface. Adits offer a cost-effective safer alternative to vertical shafts. An adit allows workers to walk into a mine unlike vertical shafts to reach areas of interest directly. Because they are driven at a slight upward angle they allow water to drain out naturally removing the need for pumps. Adits also provide natural airflow for underground operations. Project 816 in Chongqing China is a massive decommissioned underground nuclear plant often cited as the world's largest artificial cave featuring over 20 kilometers of tunnels and 13 levels. Built in the 1960s to produce atomic bomb fuel it was designed to withstand nuclear hits with 18000 workers creating a facility that is now a tourist attraction. Key Details of Project 816:Structure: The complex contains 18 major caves over 130 tunnels and 80 roads.<br /> Design & Safety: It was built inside a mountain to resist a 1-megaton hydrogen bomb airburst and a magnitude-8 earthquake. Scale: The reactor hall is massive measuring 79.6 meters in height. Status: Construction was halted in 1984 85% complete due to shifting geopolitics. It was declassified in 2002 and opened as a tourist attraction in 2010. Northwest Institute of Nuclear Technology (NINT) unknown

A9780309303057Paperback / softback. New. The Department of Energy's Office of Environmental Management's EM mission is the safe cleanup of sites associated with the government-led development of nuclear weapons and nuclear energy. While many of these legacy sites have completed cleanup the largest and most complex sites have not been fully remediated. The cleanup of these sites is proceeding under legally enforceable agreements with timelines for hundreds of milestones. EM is reviewing alternative approaches to increase effectiveness and improve cost efficiencies of its cleanup activities especially for sites that will have residual contamination when active cleanup is complete. This report is the summary of two workshops convened in October 2013 and January 2014 on best practices for risk-informed remedy selection closure and post-closure control of radioactive and chemically contaminated sites that present significant difficulty for remediation to unrestricted release. The workshop series aimed to explore best practices that promote effective risk-informed decision making and future opportunities to improve remediation approaches and practices.In the Workshop #1 section of Best Practices for Risk-Informed Decision Making Regarding Contaminated Sites the report examines holistic approaches for remediating sites with multiple contaminant sources and post-closure uses and approaches for incorporating a sustainability framework into decision making regarding site remediation closure and post-closure control. In Workshop #2 the report focuses on post-closure controls assessment of long-term performance of site remedies and best practices for risk-based remediation decisions. paperback
