Chernobyl Nuclear Accident Congressional Hearings Transcript

The 1986 Report of the U.S. Department of Energy's Team Analyses of the
Chernobyl-4 Atomic Energy Station Accident Sequence DOE/NE-0076.
The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) formed a team of experts from Argonne
National Laboratory, Brookhaven National Laboratory, Oak Ridge National
Laboratory, and Pacific Northwest Laboratory. The DOE team provided the
analytical support to the U.S. delegation for the August, 1986 meeting of
the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), and to subsequent
international meetings. The DOE team analyzed the accident in detail,
assessed the plausibility and completeness of the information provided by
the Soviets, and performed studies relevant to understanding the
accident.
The 1987 report Radioactive Fallout from the Chernobyl Nuclear Reactor
Accident
The Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory performed a variety of
measurements to determine the level of the radioactive fallout on the
western United States. The laboratory used gamma-spectroscopy to analyze
air filters from the areas around Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory
in California. Filters were also analyzed from Barrow and Fairbanks,
Alaska. Milk from California and imported vegetables were also analyzed
for radioactivity.
