Description
The objective of this report was to provide an independent review and technical evaluation of the soil sampling protocols used at the Rocky Flats Environmental Technology Site (RFETS) for site characterization and cleanup confirmation. This technical evaluation focuses on (1) the Buffer Zone (BZ), since the National Wildlife Refuge will only include lands contained in the BZ, (2) the surface soils, the primary exposure medium and potential exposure point for Refuge workers and visitors, and (3) the radionuclides of uranium, plutonium, and americium, the contaminants expected to be of primary exposure concern in the Refuge.
This research was completed money allocated during Round 6 of the Citizens’ Monitoring and Technical Assessment Fund (MTA Fund). Clark University was named conservator of these works.
