Mission statement:

How:
TRAC’s investigations are funded in-house and by taxable, private donations.
Experience:
Norm Buske is also a consultant for radiological investigations.
Current projects:
    Objective: To help assure that PSNS protects the health and safety of its neighbors, while this largest nuclear naval facility on the West Coast supports the U.S. Navy’s missions abroad.     Method: To sample kelp (Laminaria sp.) collected from Sinclair Inlet as medium to monitor marine contamination. TRAC proposes to add composite sampling of terrestrial mosses, as medium to monitor airborne contamination in neighborhoods around PSNS.     Anticipated duration: ten years, beginning in June 2007. Hanford Reach, Columbia River; Hanford, Washington.     Objective: To assess changes in migration of contaminated groundwater from Hanford Site into the Columbia River in Eastern Washington, to provide a basis public oversight of future waste storage and disposals at Hanford.     Method: In-situ nitrate measurements of groundwater seepages entering the Columbia River, with radiological analyses of selected samples.     Anticipated duration: Postponed in favor of adding to the PSNS monitoring project, above.
