“…However, for this radionuclide, the entire suite of cumulative leaching curves was reduced about two orders of magnitude compared to _Sr; the upper limit on 137Cs leachability from the sludge alone was only about 1%. The strong spe_fic adsorption of 137Cs by illitic clay minerals in the soils of SWSA 6 (Davis et al 1984) makes this radionuclide extremely immobile in the soil environment. The form of the specific adsorption is neither as an exchangeable cation or a carbonate coprecipitate.…”

“…For example, mean hydraulic conductivity of undisturbed soil formation at the TARA site in "driven" wells was 1.2 x 10.5 cm/s. Previous measurements in SWSA 6 have resulted in mean hydraulic conductivities of 3.5 x 10.5 and 2.0 x 10.5 cre/s, Luxmoore et al (1981) and Davis et al (1984), respectively.…”
