Argonne National Laboratory: CP-5 Reactor
CP-5 Reactor Survey
December 1996
A series of surveys was performed for the Large Scale Demonstration Project (LSDP) associated with the CP-5 Reactor at the Argonne National Laboratory outside of Chicago. The surveys were performed for the Strategic Alliance for Environmental Restoration, a consortium of utilities and contractors that ran the LSDP for the DOE's Federal Energy Technology Center (FETC). The US Army Corps of Engineers scored the test surveys, which involved over 1000 square meters of area. The surveys took less than two days to perform, including onsite mobilization. The tests have been documented in an ITSR report that is available from FETC. The Waste Policy Institute (WPI) has written a brochure describing the results, and the FETC has information on this and other demonstrations online. Tests indicated that the SCM/SIMS system was substantially less costly and faster than conventional survey methods.
