About this ebook
The Dept. of Energy¿s Office of Environ. Mgmt. (EM) is responsible for one of the world¿s largest cleanup programs: treatment and disposal of radioactive and hazardous waste created as a by-product of nuclear weapons production and energy research at sites across the country, such as EM¿s Hanford Site in Wash. State and the Savannah River Site in S. Carolina. Computer models (CM) -- which represent physical and bio-geochemical processes as math formulas -- are one tool EM uses in the cleanups. This report: (1) describes how EM uses CM in cleanup decisions; (2) evaluates how EM ensures the quality of its CM; and (3) assesses EM¿s overall strategy for managing its CM. This is a print on demand report.
