PR-R5-15-00665:ORTEC TRANS SPEC: PORTABLE (24-LB) HIGH RESOLUTION GAMMA SPECTROSCOPY SYSTEM. THIS SYSTEM PROVIDES THE BEST CAPABILITY FOR FIELD IDENTIFICATION OF RADIONUCLIDES, AND CAN PROVIDE CONCENTRATIONS IN SOIL VOLUMES AND SURFACES. IT'S LIKE AN XRF BUT FOR RADIONUCLIDES. IT WOULD BE USED AT LINDSAY LIGHT FOR CLEANUP VERIFICATION AND SITE ASSESSMENT, AND WASTE CHARACTERIZATION. IT CAN ALSO BE USED OTHER RADIOLOGICAL EMERGENCY RESPONSE ACTIVITIES, INCLUDING HIGH-CONFIDENCE IDENTIFICATION AND QUANTIFICATION OF ORPHAN SOURCES. WITH THIS WE'LL ALSO START HAVING EQUIPMENT AND CAPABILITIES SIMILAR TO THE DOE RAP TEAM AND FRMAC. THIS IS COMPARABLE TO THE MICRO-TRANS-SPEC THAT'S ALSO BEING BOUGHT, BUT MORE APPROPRIATE FOR WASTE CHARACTERIZATION WORK.
