DOE-EM issues draft RFP for Hanford lab work, awards WIPP monitoring grant
The Department of Energy’s Office of Environmental Management issued a draft request for proposals on June 25 for the Hanford Site’s 222-S Laboratory contract. The 222-S Laboratory is the primary on-site laboratory for analysis of highly radioactive samples in support of all projects at the DOE’s Hanford Site in Washington state.

Three types of moisture monitors: MCM Model Dewluxe-20, Panametrics Model System One, and Shaw Model SHA-TRS were tested for accuracy and speed of response over low (10–50 ppm H2O), medium (100–500 ppm H2O), and high (500–4,000 ppm H2O) concentration ranges. The results for the three instruments tested (one of each kind) showed that the MCM instrument was generally more accurate and responded more quickly than the other two instruments, with the Panametrics instrument being less accurate (except at low concentration) and slower to respond, and the Shaw instrument was the least accurate and least responsive of the three instruments during the tests made.
