September Data Search and Capture Efforts
- National Archives and Records Administration (NARA)
Atlanta, GA
Two data capture trips occurred in September to the Atlanta National Archives and Records Administration (NARA) facility. These marked the second and third trips to NARA in response to a previous data search effort. During the second trip, 175 boxes were reviewed and materials were selected from 53 boxes. This included 125 documents spanning the years 1941-1990. Information was found on various DOE and AWE sites.
During the third trip, 73 boxes were reviewed and materials were selected from 38 of the boxes comprising 286 documents on various DOE and AWE sites.

- Fernald Records Center
Fernald, OH
ORAU Team Specialists responsible for the Fernald Technical Basis Document on Internal Dosimetry, External Dosimetry, and Environmental Dosimetry traveled to the Fernald site to conduct a review of information and documents. They also identified numerous records and requested electronic and hard copies of many useful reports.
A follow-up data capture effort was made to the Fernald Records Center the following week. ORAU staff was able to spend time at the Center to review the contents of approximately 60 boxes of information and retrieve 90 documents spanning the years 1954-1990.

- Health-Related Energy Research Branch
Cincinnati, OH
ORAU worked with staff from the NIOSH Health-Energy Related Branch (HERB) to capture data for the Portsmouth and Paducah Sites. The data capture effort was primarily targeted to capture documents that would be helpful in the development of the Portsmouth Technical Basis Document (TBD). Ten boxes were reviewed and 42 documents for the years spanning 1950-1995 were captured.
Several documents, including laboratory and health physics procedures and programs, were captured. Some of the more useful procedures were for the urinalysis program, film badges, in vivo, and performance of Health Physics surveys. Other documents worth mentioning included health physics survey reports, 1994 Mortality Study, 1987 Exposure Assessment, 1985 Final Safety Analysis Reports, and 1952-1992 exposure records. In all, approximately 2 boxes of documents were captured.
