This document walks a user through a demonstration of working with PDV digitizer data using python. This demonstration and included suggested exercises will be used at the 2024 PDV workshop hands-on session as an example and skill-development training session. The tutorial allows the user to generate synthetic but realistic PDV waveform data and visualize/inspect the results using spectrograms and waveform viewing tools.
Introduction • H-Canyon: • Located at Savannah River Site . • Last production, radiologically shielded, operating nuclear chemical separation facility in the US . • Is in operations since the 1950 s . • The confinement and direction of the Canyon’s process airflow is provided by an underground tunnel .

CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS •“There is no evidence of pit depth growth over the last 15-years demonstrating the effectiveness of the corrosion control program. •“Incipient pits” are not growing and are likely pre-service pits. • No need to continue measuring these tiny pits. However, due to the random nature of pit initiation and the potentially accelerated growth of a pit, periodic monitoring for pit growth is prudent. 1. No reportable pits were identified. All identified pits are far less than the reportable depth of 25% of the nominal wall thickness. 2. No cracking was identified. 3. There is no evidence that active, systemic corrosion has occurred in Tank 29 during its 38-year service history as of 2009.

The results of the environmental surveillance program conducted at Site A/Plot M for calendar year (CY) 2024 are presented within this document. Site A/Plot M is in the Palos Area Preserves managed by the Forest Preserve District of Cook County. The surveillance program consists of the collection and analysis of surface and groundwater samples to determine the amount of hydrogen-3 and strontium-90 present in the environment within and surrounding the site of the former research facility (Site A) and waste burial site (Plot M).

This report is part of the ongoing Solar Time-Based Residential Analytics and Cycle Time Estimator (SolarTRACE) project, led by the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL). The SolarTRACE project utilizes time-stamped project-level data provided by installer-partners to assess nationwide and AHJ- and utility-level PI&I and other solar PV adoption timelines since 2017. Our dataset now covers 22% of residential solar and 33% of residential storage installs in the U.S. since 2017. This report provides an update to our previous 2022 report (Cruce et al., 2022b) and includes: updated 2017 2023 project timelines for residential rooftop solar PV up to 20kW; updated tracking of permitting process changes at nearly 4,000 AHJs nationwide; and first-ever reporting of timelines for residential PV+storage projects up to 20kW.
This report, in fulfillment of a U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) license requirement, presents the results of long-term surveillance and maintenance activities conducted by the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) Office of Legacy Management (LM) in 2024. These activities occurred at the 19 uranium mill tailings disposal sites established under Title I of the Uranium Mill Tailings Radiation Control Act (UMTRCA) and verify that the UMTRCA Title I disposal sites remain in compliance with license requirements and Long-Term Surveillance Plans (LTSPs). Individual chapters for each site are available on the LM public website at https://energy.gov/lm/sites/lm-sites.
