Sources and behavior of anthropogenic radionuclides in the Ottawa River waters / S.R. Joshi and R.C. McRea.: En13-5/91-09E-PDF

"The present study was initiated by NWRI, and carried out jointly with WQB - Ontario Region, to assess the levels and transport behaviour of radionuclides released from the Chalk River Nuclear Laboratories (CRNL) to the Ottawa River. The concentrations of several gamma-ray emitting radionuclides were measured in raw water, centrifuged water, drinking water and suspended solid samples collected from the Ottawa River near Ottawa between 1984-86. In addition, water filtration plant floc samples from a nearby location were also analyzed. The data on radionuclide levels suggest the allowable release limits have not been approached"--Management perspective.
