Environmental monitoring at the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory. 1985 annual report

“…This effluent contains low levels of tritium which come from normal LLNL operational re leases to the sanitary sewer system. As part of a study begun in 1977, 8 tritium measurements are now made annually on well-water samples col lected from neighboring wells to determine the extent of tritium migration into groundwater.…”

“…Beginning in 1977, as a means of evaluating the possible impact of Laboratory effluents on lo cally grown foodstuff, the tritium content of Liv ermore Valley wines was measured and compared with that found in other California wines and Eu ropean wines. 8 Wine samples collected in 1981 were catalytically oxidized to carbon dioxide and water, and the tritium content of the recovered water was measured by gas proportional count ing. The data in Table 23 represent the analysis of samples purchased in 1981.…”

Environmental monitoring at the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory. 1982 annual report

“…Site 300 water-sampling locations. study begun in 1977, 9 tritium measurements are now made annually on well-water samples col lected from neighboring wells to determine the extent of tritium migration into groundwater. Many of the wells were in the immediate vicinity of the LWRP; however, additional samples were also collected from areas at some distance.…”
