“…Previous studies have reported above background levels of 1291 on the INEL in several environmental media including vegetation (McGiff 1983, waterfowl tissues (Halford and Markham 1984), rabbit thyroids (Fraley et al 1982) and mule deer thyroids (Markham et al 1983). Concentrations in vegetation decrease with distance from the ICPP.…”

Public relations and environmental education This section emphasizes the Foundation's support for DOE-ID in its open and frank disclosure of environmental issues with various individuals and stakeholder groups. The public relations program includes an aggressive agenda of press releases, newsletters, and presentations to lay and technical audiences. 1 Environmental services and support This section acknowledges that Foundation staff are recognized authorities on the ecology of the INEL and, as such, provide counsel and recommendations to DOE-ID regarding natural resource issues on the INEL, The Foundation is the point of contact for DOE-ID on natural resource issues with various agencies (e.g. BLM, Fish and Game), and responds to lay and professional queries on the ecology of the INEL. Ecological Risk Assessment This section describes the involvement of the Foundation in ecological risk assessment issues and efforts locally and nationally. The program provides DOE-ID the basic tools with which to comply with various regulations and mandates. Ecology and radioecology research This section summarizes the various radioecology and ecology research projects conducted on the INEL by Foundation staff and University Affiliates. The research efforts provide the basis for much of the environmental education, services and support activities, and provide sound, defensible answers to basic and applied ecological questions related to DOE-ID projects in the shrub-steppe ecosystem.

“…Previous studies reported above background levels of 1291 on and off the INEEL. These levels were found in several environmental media including vegetation (McGiff 1985), waterfowl tissues (Halford and Markham 1984), rabbit thyroids (Fraley et al 1982) and mule deer thyroids (Markham et al 1983). Concentrations in vegetation decreased with distance from the ICPP.…”

accomplishments of the Foundation and its University Affiliates during the calendar year 1996 can be divided into five major categories. ENVIRONMENTAL SURVEILLANCE PROGRAM In this category, the Foundation and its University Affiliates: Routinely sampled air, water, soils, environmental dosimeters and various foodstuffs throughout the upper Snake River Plain for contaminants originating from the INEEL. During 1995, we collected 2,378 samples as part of the surveillance program, and performed 3,653 analyses on these samples. Completed construction and began routinely collecting data from two Community Monitoring Stations located at area schools. Damage Control programs and the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service Threatened and Endangered Species program. Participated in INEEL meetings including several established group meetings, ad hoc committees, and singular meetings. Facilitated use of the Idaho National Environmental Research Park by 162 University scientists, staff, and graduate students. We provided technical review of INEEL research plans and management documents. ECOLOGICAL RISK ASSESSMENT The Foundation has served as a co-leader in the ecological risk assessment guidance development effort since its inception at the INEEL. This effort resulted in a guidance document for conducting screening-level ecological risk assessments on the INEEL. In 1996, the Foundation: Contributed to the development of techniques for conducting site-wide and WAG-wide ecological risk assessments. Participated in developing the Field Sampling Plan for the Site-wide Ecological Risk Assessment. Provided logistical support for two LMITCO summer interns to summarize the Foundation's reprint database with respect to it's relevance to ecological risk. Their report is in progress. Participated in a DOE-HQ sponsored working group to develop methodologies for incorporating the Data Quality Objectives process into the Ecological Risk Assessment process.
