| Abstract |
A 1976 study by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency estimated the public health impact of C-14 discharges from the light-water-cooled reactor (LWR) nuclear power industry. The study reported on here evaluates the environmental impact of C-14 discharges from LWR's and LWR fuel reprocessing facilities and updates the 1976 EPA estimates. The results of this study will be used to help deliberate the need for a national environmental standard for carbon-14 emissions from normal operations of uranium fuel cycle facilities. |
