GAO report describes cleanup progress at Moab Mill Site
A new report released by the U.S. Government Accountability Office states that the Department of Energy’s Office of Environmental Management (EM) has disposed of more than 16 million tons of radioactive and hazardous waste from the Moab Mill Site. While cleanup continues at the Cold War–era uranium ore processing site in southeastern Utah, a plan for the next phase of groundwater remediation is still needed, according to the GAO.

The feasibility of using a fast pulse reactor as a neutron source in the production of time-resolved neutron radiographs has been demonstrated at the U.S. Army Pulse Radiation Facility. The radiographs were obtained using the transfer radiographic method. Pulses with a full width at half maximum of 50 µsec and 1.2 × 1017 fissions were utilized to obtain time-resolved radiographs of objects moving at speeds up to 76 m/sec. Investigation of double images, observed in radiographs of test objects moving within this speed range, suggests a method of producing “motion pictures” of these objects using one reactor pulse and a suitable stack of detection foils. Resolution of objects moving at speeds greater than 76 m/sec can be obtained by reducing source exposure time to a lower limit of 1 µsec through employment of electronic gating and image intensification techniques.
