An overview of the Oregon Water Quality Decision Aid (OWQDA) : a tool for assessing groundwater contamination risk from specific soil-pesticide combinations

Creator:: Huddleston, J. H. (James Herbert), 1942- and Oregon State University. Extension Service
Abstract:: The Oregon Water Quality Decision Aid (OWQDA) is a first-tier screening tool that allows you to make a broad determination of the likelihood that a specific chemical, when applied to a specific Oregon soil, will move through the soil and contaminate groundwater. This determination is called the groundwater vulnerability rating.

Application of autoradiographic techniques for contaminant distribution studies in soils

Creator:: Povetko, Oleg G.
Abstract:: In order to determine the physical location of contaminants in soil, two solidified soil "thin" sections, which preserve the undisturbed structural characteristics of the original soil, containing weapons-grade plutonium from the Rocky Flats Environmental Test Site were prepared. Two autoradiographic methods were used in radionuclide mapping: contact autoradiography using CR-39®...

Use of the Combined Index, a hazard screening tool, to target for pollution prevention in the State of Oregon

Creator:: Code, Aimee
Abstract:: The purpose of this study was to apply the Combined Index (Con, a hazard screening tool, developed by Dr. Debra Forman of EPA Region III Office of Air Radiation and Toxics Division, to the 1994 and 1995 Oregon Toxic Chemical Release Inventory (TRI) for pollution prevention and facility targeting analysis....

Radiologic sampling of surface soils near a USEPA superfund site

Creator:: Blakeman, Christopher John
Abstract:: The human health effects of acute exposure to high levels of ionizing radiation are well understood; however, when these irradiations occur at low levels, there is controversy as to their potential health threat (BEIR V, 1990). For individuals living in areas where the level of naturally occurring background radiation is...

Analysis of streamflow variability in Oregon for regional water quality monitoring programs

Creator:: Saligoe-Simmel, Julia L.
Abstract:: Streamflow variability can provide valuable information for nonpoint source pollution monitoring program planning. The research papers presented in this thesis examine selected properties of streamflow variability in Oregon to advance its application in regional planning of water quality monitoring programs. The products of this research depict Oregon streams by their...

Assessment of ground water recharge and quality under agricultural production in Lane County, Oregon

Creator:: Shelby, Patrick M.
Abstract:: Assessment of the environmental impacts of an agricultural production system requires information on both soil water quality and solute flux. Passive Capillary Samplers (PCAPS), which sample water from the vadose zone using fiber glass wicks, have shown potential to provide both flux and solute concentration in unsaturated zone sampling but...

An evaluation of the economic impacts of reducing soil erosion and groundwater pollution in non-irrigated farming systems of northeastern Oregon

Creator:: Akinsanmi, Josiah Akinlayo
Abstract:: Increases in food demand, favorable commodity markets and drive towards increasing productivity at a greater economic efficiency have accelerated negative agricultural externalities, particularly erosion and water quality. The potential impact of these externalities on environmental quality and human health prompted an examination of current and potential production strategies on four...
