PREFACE
The Environmental Monitoring and Support Laboratory* in
Las Vegas, Nevada, (EMSL-Las Vegas) is one of three such labo-
ratories of the Office of Monitoring and Technical Support in the
U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's Office of Research and
Development (ORD).
The EMSL-Las Vegas provides environmental monitoring and
analytical support to ORD and EPA program offices and labora-
tories. It is responsible for the planning, coordination and
implementation of a multimedia and remote sensing monitoring and
measurement program. This program includes instrumentation and
techniques development and evaluation. The EMSL-Las Vegas also
provides emergency monitoring response and other technical support
for the Agency as requested and conducts a multimedia quality
assurance program. It is responsible for the operation of the EPA
aircraft fleet and provides aircraft support to other EPA ac-
tivit ies.
In addition, the EMSL-Las Vegas conducts research and moni-
toring programs for the U.S. Energy Research and Development
Administration's (ERDA) Nevada Operations Office under Memorandum
of Understanding No. AT(26-l)-539. These programs concern envi-
ronmental radiation associated with the ERDA's tests of nuclear
explosives conducted at the Nevada Test Site and other sites.

ENVIRONMENTAL HEALTH EFFECTS RESEARCH
SYNERGISTIC EFFECT OF POLONIUM-210 AND CIGARETTE SMOKE IN RATS
Black, S. C., and E. W. Bretthauer, NERC-Las Vegas, Office of
Research and Development, EPA, Las Vegas, Nevada
EPA-680/1-75-001, June 1975
Abstract: An experimental procedure was devised to test the
possible synergistic effect of polonium-210 and
cigarette smoke In rats. Appropriate techniques were devel-
oped to expose the rats to cigarette smoke through mouth-
breathing and to add known amounts of po1 onium-210 to the
cigarette smoke. The findings from this experiment included:
(1) lung deposition of polonium-210 was 31 ±2 percent,
(2) early retention of polonium was two-phased with half-times
of and 81) hours, and (3) bronchitis, emphysema and lung
tumors were observed in the experimental animals. Though the
spontaneous occurrence of two tung tumors In the number of
animals at risk was highly Improbable, any conclusion that
this resulted from the exposure to cigarette smoke must be
highly qua I ified.

ECOLOGICAL RESEARCH
METHYLATION OF MERCURY IN A TERRESTRIAL ENVIRONMENT
Rogers, R, D., EMSL-Las Vegas, Office of Research and Development,
EPA, Las Vegas, Nevada
EPA-600/3-75-014, October 1975
Abstract: Methylation of applied divalent mercury ion was found
to occur in terrestrial soil systems. The production
of methyImercury was affected by soil texture, soil moisture con-
tent, soft temperature, concentration of the ionic mercury a-
mendment, and time. Methylation was directly proportional to
percent clay content, moisture content, temperature, and mercury
concentration. After an initial buildup of methyImercury In
the soil, there appeared to be a mechanism that decreased the
methyImercury content with Increasing time.

TENTATIVE REFERENCE METHOD FOR MEASUREMENT OF TRITIUM IN ENVI-
RONMENTAL WATERS
Quality Assurance Branch, Monitoring Systems Research and Devel-
opment Division, EMSL-Las Vegas, Office of Research and Develop-
ment, EPA, Las Vegas, Nevada
EPA-600/4-75-013, December 1975
Abstract: A tentative reference method for the measurement
of tritium in potable and nonpotable environ-
mental water is described. Water samples are treated with
sodium hydroxide and potassium permanganate and then a
water fraction is separated from interferences by distillation.
Two distillation procedures are described: a simple aqueous
distillation for samples from potable water sources, and an
aqueous-azeotropic-benzene distillation for nonpotable water
sources.
Aliquots of a designated distillate fraction are measured
for tritium activity by liquid scintillation detection.
Distillation recovery and counting efficiency factors are
determined with tritium standards. Results are reported
In picocuries per milliliter.

Quality Assurance Branch, Monitoring Systems Research and Develop-
ment Division, EMSL-Las Vegas, Office of Research and Development,
EPA, Las Vegas, Nevada
EPA-600/4-75-014, October 1975
Abstract: The Quality Assurance Branch prepares and distributes
calibrated low-level radioactive solutions to Federal,
State, and private laboratories involved in environmental radia-
tion monitoring and surveillance. These solutions are used for
both the calibration of counting instruments and chemical yield
determinations. Since the laboratories using these samples must
have confidence in their accuracy, the Quality Assurance Branch has
instituted intercomparison studies with the National Bureau of
Standards and with the U.S. Energy Research and Development Admin-
istration Health and Service Laboratory. The results of the studies
conducted during 197^ and 1975 are described.

DEVELOPMENT OF A BIOLOGICAL MONITORING NETWORK - A TEST CASE
Sutton, W. W., NERC-Las Vegas, Office of Research and Development,
EPA, Las Vegas, Nevada, and L. L. Salomon, Test Operations Di-
rectorate, Dugway Proving Ground, Dugway, Utah
EPA-680/4-75-003, June 1975
Abstract: A review was conducted of a Dugway Proving
Ground (DPG) monitoring network. The network
is designed to establish baseline erythrocyte acetylcho-
linesterase (AChE) levels in the fauna of West Central
Utah. It is also designed to evaluate the suitability of
using livestock and wildlife as biological monitors for
organophosphorus contaminants. Wildlife species sampled
4
-------
during these DP6 efforts included the antelope ground
squirrel, the Ord kangaroo rat, the deer mouse, and the black-
tailed Jackrabbit. Individual blood samples from these
wildlife species as well as samples from cattle and sheep
were collected and analyzed for red cell AChE activity.
The analytical method used was based on the Warburg mano-
metrlc technique. Results indicate that the range of
red cell AChE activity values for both livestock and
wildlife species is sufficiently compact to allow observation
of the depression of enzymtc activity that would result
from organophosphorus exposures. Controlled studies have
shown that, following exposure to organophosphorus chemi-
cals, the red cell activity recovers in an essentially
linear fashion. Additive effects resulting from the
simultaneous exposure to military agent VX and either
toxic plants or commercial pesticides are discussed.

5
-------
in environmental waters is described. Samples of environ-
mental water sources are collected, preserved by acid treat-
ment, and aliquots of the samples are evaporated to dryness
in a counting dish and counted for alpha and beta activity.
Counting efficiencies for sample aliquots are read from
curves prepared from counting data of prepared standards,
using a known quantity of cesium-137 and 0-10 milligrams
of evaporated water dissolved solids per square centimeter
of counting dish area for gross beta, and a known quantity
of americium-2'tl and 0-5 milligrams of evaporated water
dissolved solids per square centimeter of counting dish
area for gross alpha. Results are reported in picocuries
per 1i ter.

TRITIUM FRACTIONATION IN PLANTS
McFarlane, J. C., NERC-Las Vegas, Office of Research
and Development, EPA, Las Vegas, Nevada
EPA-680/4-75-006, June 1975
Abstract: Alfalfa plants hydroponicaIly grown in environ-
mental growth chambers were continuously exposed
to tritium throughout growth. All segments of the environ-
ment were in equilibrium with respect to the specific
activity of tritium. The tritium content in plant organic
matter was about 22 percent lower than in the plant-free
water or rooting solution. Under conditions of low
transpiration, there was a higher concentration (about
1.8 percent) of tritium in the leaves than in the stems
and rooting solution. This is thought to represent the
result of fractionation during transpiration.

Smith, D. D., S. C. Black, K. R. Giles, and A. A. Moghissi, EMSL-
Las Vegas, EPA, Las Vegas, Nevada
NERC-LV-539-10, November 1975
Abstract: On December 18, 1970, an underground nuclear test
conducted at the Nevada Test Site (NTS) released
radioactive materials into the atmosphere. This venting of
radioactive materials resulted in on-site and off-site con-
tamination, The Animal Investigation Program of the NERC-
Las Vegas developed studies to document the distribution
of fission and activation products in the tissue of domestic
and wiid animals residing within contaminated areas on and sur-
rounding the NTS. A study of radioiodine secretion in milk
from 10 cows at the experimental dairy farm, including urine
and fecal excretion from 4 of them, was started about 24 hours
after the venting. A grazing intake study using 3 fistulated
steers was also carried out. The analytical data collected from
these studies are presented in this report.

1971 ANIMAL INVESTIGATION PROGRAM ANNUAL REPORT
Smith, D. D., and K. R. Giles, NERC-Las Vegas,
EPA, Las Vegas, Nevada
NERC-LV-539-20, July 1975
Abstract: This report presents the data obtained during 1971
from the radioanalysis of tissues collected from
cattle, deer, desert bighorn sheep, and other wildlife on or
near the Nevada Test Site.
Cesium-137 and ruthenium-106 were the only gamma-emitting
radionuclides detected in the soft tissues of range cattle,
Ruthenium-106 was detected only in the lungs of animals sampled
in May.
*Work reported in this series was performed under Memorandum of Understanding
No. AT{26-1)-539 for the U.S. Energy Research and Development Administration
(formerly U.S. Atomic Energy Commission).

-------
Strontium-90 levels in the cattle femurs ranged from 2 to
37 picocuries per gram (pCi/g) of ash. The latter value was
found in the bones of a 14-year-old cow that had lived on the
Nevada Test Site her entire life. The bones of the same animal
also bad the highest level of plutonium-239 Ct6 pCi'/g of ash)
that was reported. Analysis of her 8-month-old fetus revealed
the presence of detectable levels of plutonium-239 which indi-
cates placental transfer of this radionuclide. The average
strontium-90 levels in the bones from deer and desert bighorn
sheep were 3.2 and k.l pCi/g of ash, respectively.
Elevated levels of ruthentum-106 and tritium were found
in the tissues of two mule deer collected near the drainage
ponds that collect runoff waters from mines used for nuclear
testing activities.
Other animals sampled included Golden eagles, feral
horses, coyotes, and chukar. The cesium-137 levels in an eagle
collected during 196A varied only slightly from one collected
during 1971.
No gross or microscopic lesions were detected that could be
attributable to the effects of ionizing radiation.
Other activities of the Animal Investigation Program,
including special studies, investigations, and public information
displays, are described.

ACT IN IDE CONCENTRATIONS IN TISSUES FROM CATTLE GRAZING NEAR THE
ROCKY FLATS PLANT (with errata)
Smith, D. D,, and S. C. Black, NERC-Las Vegas,
EPA, Las Vegas, Nevada
NERC-LV-539-36, February 1975
Abstract: Concentrations of uranium, plutonium, and americiura
were measured in various tissues from 10 cattle
collected from a herd which grazed on a pasture east of the
U.S. Energy Research and Development Administration, Rocky Flats
Plant, Colorado, The plutonium concentrations were statistically
equivalent to those found in other herds grazing in areas where
the plutonium in soil was above the U.S. average level. The
americium concentrations were about 1/^ to 1/2 to the plutonium-239
concentrations In the same tissues. The uranium concentrations in
tissues were slightly higher than in most of the other cattle herds
studied thus reflecting the higher environmental concentrations of
uranium on the eastern slope of the Rocky Mountains. The uranium
and plutonium concentrations in lung and tracheo-bronchial lymph
9
-------
nodes and calculations of expected concentrations from atmos-
pheric plutonium measurement suggest that inhalation contributes
some fraction of the exposure of the cattle. The levels of both
uranium and plutonium-239 founa in the cattle are similar to
those found in the general U.S. population from fallout. Assum-
ing a human consumes 500 grams per day of liver or muscle con-
taining the maximum measured actlnlde concentrations, the human
bone dose accumulated in 50 years of ingestion Is estimated to be
0,02 rem, an insignificant fraction of the 8.5 rem background
dose accumulated by Denver, Colorado, residents in that time.

1311 LEVELS IN COW'S MILK FOLLOWING INGESTION OF CONTAMINATED
ALFALFA OR SUDAN GRASS
Black, S. C., R. E. Stanley, and D. S. Barth
EMSL-Las Vegas, EPA, Las Vegas, Nevada
EMSL-LV-539-1, August 1975
Abstract: A dry aerosol consisting of submicrometer dlatomaceous
earth particles tagged with iodine-131 was released
over two different types of growing forage (alfalfa and Sudan
grass) at the Experimental Dairy Farm on the Nevada Test Site.
Following deposition of the aerosol, the two forage types were
10
-------
chopped and fed to different groups of 1 actat ifig dairy cows.
The dual objectives of the study were to evaluate the rela-
tionship of iodfne-131 secretion in milk to the Ingestion of
different types of contaminated forage and to obtain a further
indication of the possible influence on milk radiolodlne levels
of changing the particle size of the contaminant.
The ratios of the peak activity concentrations measured In
the milk to the peak activity concentrations in the forage were
computed to be O.Ol'tS for the cows fed contaminated alfalfa and
0.0082 for those fed contaminated Sudan grass. Comparison of
the results from this study with those from earlier studies
indicates the major effect on activity levels in the milk can
be related to forage type. Ingestion of Sudan grass by the cow
reduces the transfer of radioiodine to milk by one half compared
to Ingestion of alfalfa.

ACCIDENTAL INHALATION OF MERCURY~203
Brown, K. W. , J. C. McFarlane, and D. E. Bernhardt
Health Phys., 28 pp. 1-4, January 1975
Abstract: Two employees were inadvertently exposed to radio
active mercury-203 (203Hg) through inhalation. Whole-
body content of 203Hg decreased with an effective half-life of
16.6 ± 0.6 and 17.5 ± 2.0 days and a biological half-life of
25.8 ± 1.1 and 27.9 ± 3-7 days. Urine collected during a portion
of this study indicated that about 29 percent of the mercury was
excreted via the urine. Calculations based on the Model of the
International Commission of Radiological Protection Task Group on
Lung Dynamics indicated that kidney doses for the two personnel
exposed were from 110 to 170 and 13 to 21 millirem respectively.

THE ECOSECT PR0BE--A NEW APPROACH TO DETERMINE THE MOVEMENT
POLLUTANTS IN SOILS
McFarlane, J. C., K. W. Brown, and R. R. Kinnison
Soil Sci., in press.
Abstract: "Ecosect Probe" is the name given to an instrument
constructed to measure the position of gamma-
emitting trace elements in soil. It consists of a solid state
scintillator, a lead shield with a 3-millimeter (mm) wide
horizontal window and a portable analyzer, When the detector
is lowered into a circular excavation dug vertically into the
soil of interest, the gamma activity of the tracer is plotted
as a function of depth thus yielding a profile of the tracer
distribution. Because of a broad base profile in the original
plotted data, which is due to soil attenuation and the lack
of collimatton, a computer program was written to replot the
distribution pattern to within ±1 mm of actual position. By
making a series of time related measurements, the kinetics of
pollutant movement in soil is obtained.

SOMATIC CROSSING OVER IN GLY.CJJi£ MAX L. (Merrill); Sensitivity
to and Saturation of the System to Low Levels of Tritium Emitted
Beta-Radiation
Vig, B. K., and J. C. McFarlane
Theor. Appl. Genet., 46, pp. 331-337, 1975
Abstract: Seeds of varieties L65-1237 and T219 of soybean were
soaked in 20-50 milliliters (ml) of tritlated water
containing between 0.01 and 50 microcuries per milliliter (pCi/ml)
of tritium (T) for various periods from 2k to 1*42 hours. Genetic
damage was determined by counting the number of Y^Y.. - Yiiy,]
leaves. No effect was noticeable in treatments lasting up to
2^ hours independent of the concentration. However, somatic
crossing over occurred when the seeds were treated with tritium
for 92 hours or longer even with concentrations as low as
0.01 pCI/ml. The data indicate that the soybean system being used Is
sensitive to very low doses of beta radiation. The damage
to the seeds treated with the lowest concentration was not signif-
icantly different in quality or quantity from that induced by
higher concentrations. This indicates some type of saturation
effect to tritium-emitted beta radiation. Analytical results
showed that synthesis of organic matter and incorporation of
tritium Into the organic fraction was delayed until about 96 hours
after the imbibition was started. This indicates a relationship
between spot induction by tritium and organic synthesis.

V. WORKING PAPER SERIES
EPA NATIONAL EUTROPHICATION SURVEY WORKING PAPER SERIES, 1975
The National Eutrophication Survey was initiated
1972 to investigate the nationwide threat of accel-
erated eutrophication to fresh water lakes and
reservoirs. The Survey was designed to develop, in
conjunction with State and environmental agencies,
information on nutrient sources, concentrations and
impact on selected fresh water lakes. This infor-
mation provides a basis for formulating compre-
hensive and coordinated national, regional and
State management practices relating to point source
discharge reduction and nonpoint source pollution
abatement in lake watersheds. Lake sampling was
completed in November 1975.
Reports of data on individual lakes are being
prepared cooperatively by the Special Studies
Branch, Criteria and Assessment Division, Corvallis
Environmental Research Laboratory and the Water and
Land Quality Branch, Monitoring Operations Division,
Environmental Monitoring and Support Laboratory-Las
Vegas. Working papers listed here were prepared
cooperatively by these two groups with the excep-
tion of Nos. 472 and 473. These were prepared by
EMSL-LV personnel.
