Kittinger’s Log Book No. IV (Kittinger 1969) 

1/2/69 – 3/28/72 

1/8/69: Page 2 – Met w [Name], discussed lack of badge change for contractor personnel – many 

as old as Mar 68 issue. [Name] to correct this and place all workers in 76-77 on mo. change. 

Also discussed lack of credibility for neutron dose data. This seems to me to be much poorer 

data in the past 3 months even than before. [Name] will ask [Name] to again examine calibration 

and do comparative studies with Texas Nuclear. [Name] feels we need to abandon film and 

assign dose. 

1/24/69: Page 7 – [Name] talked to [Name] about his 1139 mrem exposure in 1st 2-week period. 

[Name] claims no unusual work situations – was on fluorinator operations majority of the period. 

[Name] worked with him on this assignment. 

1/29/69: Page 8 – [Name] reported urine sample from [Name] S & W man [Badge Number] was 

3.8 dpm/24 hr. [Name] informed [Name] foreman that he should submit a re-sample because it 

appeared the lab had contaminated his sample. [Name] had suggested to [Name] that he submit 

the original sample not because [Name] had come to him concerned that he was receiving no 

sampling. 

1/29/69: Page 9 – Discussed status of neutron dosimetry w [Name]. He reports from 

instrumentation meeting he just attended that other contractor having same problem – disparity 

between survey instr. Readings & NTA film. They have no plans to solve this problem. [Name] 

also reported other installations using wrist badges only on very limited special issue basis. 

[Name] indicated Brookhaven (I think) feels some promise in neutron eval. From TLDs either 

enriched or depleted in 6Li. 

3/5/69: Page 22 – Called [Name] about [Name] Jan. film badge result 580 mrem. 

3/5/69: Page 22 – Rec’d 2 wk film badge results for 771 – 2 da late because 1 pers. Meters tech.

RFETS SEC Petition Review 35 Working Draft – February 15, 2007 
3/6/69: Page 22 – Met w [Name] – requested shielding be installed for unit storage in Rm 217 of 

779. Showed him copy of shielding recommended to [Name] in Sept. 68, copy of current 

survey, and dose sustained by [Name] at his desk (639 mrem) because of this unshielded storage. 

[Name] agreed to investigate shielding possibilities. I plan to follow up w letter & copy of most 

recent survey. 

3/6/69: Page 22 – Asked [Name] to read [Name] Feb. badge as soon as possible. Got special 

badge for [Name]’s bank.

4/10/69: Page 32 – Met w [Name] to discuss my concern over inc. in positive urine results. For 

5-mo period 43% of all samples run for Pu are positive. [Name] knows that a significant cross 

contam. problem exists in the lab and expects this to be corrected when new lab facility are 

occupied. He does not feel the impact of the samle contam. will be great since anomalous 

results are excluded from computer tape and since this situation should be corrected shortly. He 

promised to carefully examine the exposure history of any personnel before work restrictions are 

imposed. 

4/11/69: Page 32 – 771 Incident at reduction line 149 last night (PM). Reduction reactor blew up 

and several gloves burned off the box. Eight indiv were body counted. [Name], [Name], 

[Name], [Name], [Name], [Name], [Name], and [Name]. [Name] & [Name] showed positive 

counts about equal to last counts (1964 for [Name] and Jan 69 for [Name]). [Name] and [Name] 

were positive and possibly above perm lung burden. The 4 positives are to be recounted tonite 

and Mon. nite. All 8 were given cartons for fecal samples today. Am conc. judged to be 180 

ppm. 

4/18/69: Page 34 – Conferred w [Name] and he will act to delete 715 mrad pen and 719 mrem 

skin for [Name] [Badge Number]. This was recorded for a Sept. badge left on a smock and left 

hanging in the area until turning in in April. 

RFETS SEC Petition Review 36 Working Draft – February 15, 2007 
4/24/69: Page 36 – [Name] counted again today – count level about same. Low ppm Am-241 on 

samples leaves question about whether positive lung count due to prior exposure. Relayed 

qualitative information of this nature to [Name]. Asked them to hold him out of the area until 

better definition is given – probably early next week. 

6/24/69: Page 49 – Body counted from 779 incidents. [Name], [Name] [Badge Number],

7/28/69: Page 58 – Informed [Name] of high June exposures to [Name] (707 mrem, 687 gamma) 

& [Name] (1142 mrem all gamma). 

7/31/69: Page 60: Fire in 771 on last nite’s PM shift - ~ 11 PM can of oxide from 776 got hot 

enough to ignite plastic and tape outside of can. Contam. was spread to ~11,000 ft2 of 771 plus 

the tunnel. A number of people from both PM and Mid shifts were sent to body counter (about 

20). 

8/14/69: Page 63 – [Name] [Badge Number] of S & W called relative to film badge issue. 

No...found men coming to 771 w ’68 badges. Informed [Name] that neutron film not necessary, 

but concerned about old badges – called [Name] about this. 

8/27/69: Page 67 – High levels of penetrating radiation from boxes in 777 west of dry room 

brought to attention of [Name] on B-26 & [Name] & [Name] today – Max reading at 1 foot is 80 

mrem/hr. [Name] sent team in to inspect & re-distribute parts – plan to sent many to 771 as soon 

as possible – probably not before next Tuesday. Pulled 6 badges for special evaluation of doses. 

This matter brought up at [Name] meeting. 

10/6/69: Page 74 – Called [Name] to see if he was aware of high doses to his people last 2 wk 

period. He felt this due to heavy work load & extend work week. Sent summary letter to 

[Name]. 

10/17/69: Page 75 – Notified [Name] about high exposure to [Name] – [Name] thinks due to film 

badge left at desk. Data does not support. 

10/28/69: Page 77 – Discussed [Name] lung count w [Name] – asked him to get further study on 

this case. Suggested he be restricted if count is close to MPLB considering the assumptions 

made. 

10/28/69: Page 77 – Notified [Name] that [Name] probably has at least 50% MPLB. Also told 

him we are not satisfied with venting of units in shed. [Name] to check on. 

RFETS SEC Petition Review 37 Working Draft – February 15, 2007 
12/22/69: Page 87 – [Name] was exposed to an open port on X-ray diffraction unit in Rm 234, 

779 Bldg. Film badge was pulled & showed very little exposure. Unit belongs to [Name]. I 

talked to [Name] – they have taped all of the unused ports shut for want of a long term solution. 

3/24/70: Page 104 – In 776 – met w [Name], [Name], [Name], [Name], [Name] to discuss pen. 

rad exposure levels – largely resulting from improper spacing and line loading. All present 

agreed to correct problem. I indicated the other alteratives that would be used if problem isn’t 

corrected. 

(1) Shielding will be recalculated and installed. 

(2) Areas above 2.5 mrem will be roped off and signs posted showing stay times per day.

Confirmed exposure probably occurred to low ppm Am mt’l – fresh oxide – however his 

wearing respire and low pers contam. levels do not confirm a high air contam. situation. 

3/72: Page 146 – Dosimetry has changed hand-to-wrist ratio to 1.5 to 1 for all 771 operations 

except 241Am work where it will stay 2.5 to 1. Neutron wrist dosimetry now in effect at 771.

problems in the area of Lines 15, 46, 47, and 48. Such things as badged items lying on the floor 

during cutting operation (to 50mr/hr) Luc TE cart shielded cart with FR sludge in the pots, dirt 

fluoride laying on the floor and covered up with lead aprons. Apparently have some confused 

people around. Well cover this subject at their re-indoctrination that is coming up. 

Back side of line 3 is hot – evidence of someone surveying and marking trouble spots, but area 

was not posted for respirators and contaminated floor. 

Page 79: 12-4-70 AM Another big spill at line 14 just about the time the vac trap leak at Line 

13 was near completion on cleanup. Condensate return line sprung a leak and recontaminated 

entire area; air samples A-10, A-11, A-122, A-13 and A-14. Made specials. A-14 was 80,000 

c/m. Only good thing, this shift was that everyone in the area was on respirators. Still working 

on the prior mess when this happened. 

Page 124: Asked [Name] to rotate his people on barrel splitting for exposure control – he agreed 

to do it. 

Page 126: 1-21-71 Note- this is a must – refers to 1-7-71 Memoranda – Effective today, all 

respirators having 771 for laundry will be monitored and bagged separately. Hot from cold – all 

bags will be properly identified as the activity of the contents – Signed [Name]. (All shifts – each 

shift). 

Page 128: 1-22-71 High gamma problem exists on and around east side of Line 40 – Survey 

shows that exposure is great on west side when operator is working through gloves – most gloves 

are 30 ml PG – suggest that entire box go to 50 ml PG – Walkway on east side of box as high as 

10 mrem, west side walkway 2.5 mrem. Posted east walkway.

Page 134: 1-28-71 [Name] and [Name] – I could not find a incident report on the vac line leak 

atline #7. Deconed in area; all shift –leak was repaired at 2200 hrs, overhead in front of line 

deconed by end of shift. 

No incident report on line 14 either – besides what was indicated on the map; we found a leaking 

window and approximately 40 sq ft. of the box to 50,000 c/m cleaned up by 2230 hours and 

window strip is taped with lead tape. Production supervisor promised to get it changed right 

away. This leak was the source of all contamination there. 

Page 136: 1-30-71 PM shift [Name]. Stirpped the cocoon at the south end of tunnel. Count 

was reduced to 50,000 c/m direct and 1,000 c/m smear on the bare concrete. Epoxy was applied.
