“…As for the environmental assessment, the distribution of environmental radiation at the NIFS site [2], including tritium concentration in environmental water samples (river water, pond water, well water, tap water, and rainwater) collected at the Tono area [3], free water tritium and organically bound tritium in pine needle samples collected at the NIFS site and nearby [4,5] and tritium concentrations of HTO, HT, and CH 3 T in the atmosphere [4,6], are monitored prior to running the deuterium plasma ex- periment. However, from the viewpoint of radiation management in the control area, the following instruments for the management and control of tritium have been prepared: a portable-type tritium recovery apparatus, an expiratory water-trapping apparatus for internal tritium exposure measurement, a room gas monitor using an ionization chamber, an EDS for the LHD exhaust gas [7,8], a largevolume ionization chamber and active tritium samplers in the stack [9], etc.…”
