Remedial Action Plan for a petroleum hydrocarbon release
Creators: name: Murrietta, Marty E.
Publisher: name: University of Nevada, Las Vegas
Year: 1998

description: This Remediation Action Plan (RAP) presents the methods and results of feasibility testing, the screening and selection of remedial options, preliminary conceptual design, methods, permitting requirements, recommendations and cleanup goals for on- and off-site remediation of petroleum hydrocarbon impacted soil and groundwater at an undisclosed site in Laughlin, Nevada. This site is an active convenience store and former retail fueling station. Plans are being made for the demolition of the fueling station and construction of a Factory Outlet Mall on the former refueling station site and surrounding properties to the south, west, and northwest. Remediation activities cannot significantly interfere with the demolition and construction plans for the mall facility. A total of three underground storage tanks (USTs) have been removed along with approximately 453 tons of hydrocarbon contaminated soil which was transported to Las Vegas Paving Corporation for thermal treatment. A total of 24 exploratory soil borings were advanced during the on-site and off-site assessment. Nine soil borings were advanced on- and off-site, of which five were converted to groundwater monitoring wells.
Before the remedial action plan can be developed an evaluation of several activities must be assessed, such as, subsurface conditions in the vicinity of the removed USTs and feasibility testing, which is ultimately the primary basis in deciding the type of abatement which will take place.
This RAP discusses and evaluates the feasibility of various proposed soil and groundwater remediation alternatives. The selected remedial system incorporates soil ventilation, groundwater air sparging, and air emissions controls. Groundwater treatment will be by in-situ air sparging to enhance biodegradation and volatilization of dissolved contaminants. Volatile subsurface contaminants will be recovered through soil ventilation. Air emissions will be controlled by a thermal/catalytic oxidizer or carbon adsorption units as determined by concentrations of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and cost factors. This remedial system has been selected based on site geology, utilities and structure, hydrogeologic conditions, contaminant transport, planned construction activities and economic considerations. Detailed discussion of the selection criteria and comparisons of alternatives will also be discussed in this report.
This research report is factual and as detailed as would be used by any remediation company to be submitted to the Nevada Petroleum Fund for evaluating the technical and economical considerations.

description: Obesity is a global health concern associated with high morbidity and mortality. Therapeutic strategies include synthetic drugs and surgery, which may entail high costs and serious complications. Plant-based medicinal agents offer an alternative approach. A review of the studies on accessible botanical sources for the treatment of obesity is provided, which attempts to explain how these medicinal plants act to cause weight loss, and which approach is safer and more efficient. Information was gathered for the period of 1991 to 2012. Five basic mechanisms, including stimulating thermogenesis, lowering lipogenesis, enhancing lipolysis, suppressing appetite, and decreasing the absorption of lipids may be operating. Consumption of standardized medicinal plant extracts may be a safe treatment for obesity. However, some combinations of medicinal plants may result in either lower efficacy or cause unexpected side-effects.

An Analysis of apartment complex recycling in Clark County, Nevada
Creators: name: Eguchi, Noriko
Publisher: name: University of Nevada, Las Vegas
Year: 2003

description: The purpose of this study is to analyze recycling opportunities for people living in apartments and recommend solutions to improve apartment complex recycling programs in Clark County, Nevada. There are two hypotheses for this problem. First, there is not enough space to put recycling containers in some apartment complex dumpster enclosures. Second, there are several obstacles to providing recycling for complex managers. There are two methods involved in testing these hypotheses. Unincorporated Clark County was selected for the study area. The size of dumpster enclosures was measured in 73 apartment complexes out of 240 complexes which do not recycle in unincorporated area. Second, complex managers were surveyed and asked why he or she does not provide recycling to the residents in their complexes. Forty-six complex managers out of 98 agreed to participate in a survey. As a result of space assessment for recycling, approximately 70% of apartment complexes in the study area of unincorporated Clark County do not have enough space for recycling in the dumpster enclosures. Therefore, the recommendation of this thesis is that recycling containers be placed in the parking lots of grocery stores, elementary schools or other public area as a drop off point. From the complex managers responses, other obstacles to recycle for the managers, which are not included in my hypothesis, were discovered. Based on the information from the survey, more data from apartment residents and Republic Services, which is the garbage collection company, needs to be collected to completely understand the obstacles to apartment complex recycling in Clark County, Nevada.
Anaerobic digester use in dairy farms in the United States
Creators: name: Elsasser, Shaun
Publisher: name: University of Nevada, Las Vegas
Year: 2006

description: Anaerobic digestion is a highly efficient process, trapping the methane gas from
cow manure and processing it into energy. The steep initial capital costs make anaerobic
digesters short-term liabilities, but the long-term benefits far outweigh the long-term
costs. An anaerobic digester unit will begin to show a profit after approximately five
years of operation. During the lifetime of the unit, estimated at 15 years, the digester will have produced about $ 1,000,000 in profits for the dairy farm, while also providing invaluable benefits to society as a whole.
Water quality remediation at the abandoned Jones-Kincaid Mine site, Pyramid Mining District, Washoe County, Nevada
Creators: name: Choi, Si-Ok
Publisher: name: University of Nevada, Las Vegas
Year: 2003

description: The purpose of this paper is to evaluate the cost and efficiency of four remediation methods, natural attenuation, permeable reactive barriers, pump and treat systems, and bioremediation, and to determine the best suitable method for preventing further environmental degradation from the abandoned Jones-Kincaid Mine (JKM), located within the Pyramid Mining District, Washoe County, Nevada.
Problems from abandoned mine sites may be divided into four types: water quality, public safety, economic concerns, and scenic interests. The foremost problem is the effect of pollution on water quality. Acid run-off and precipitation may be spread hundreds of miles and influence drinking water sources provided to homes and factories.
The remediation of the effects of acid mine drainage from the JKM site compares cost and efficiency of four different remediation methods. I examined these methods using the following criteria: treatable compounds, pH, suitable media, potential detrimental effects, and limitations.
My hypothesis is natural attenuation proved to be the most cost effective and efficient of the four remediation methods studied and works well in both soil and groundwater. Additionally, due to the acid mine drainage at the JKM site, natural attention may increase the pH levels by the remediation of metal compounds. Drawbacks to the natural attenuation method are continuous monitoring and maintenance are required because natural attenuation of contamination may also occur.

description: We present a model for cosmological inflation based on a no-scale supergravity sector with an SU(2,1)/U(1) Kahler potential, a single modulus T and an inflaton superfield Phi described by a Wess-Zumino model with superpotential parameters (mu, lambda). This model yields a scalar spectral index n_s and a tensor-to-scalar ratio r that are compatible with the Planck measurements for values of lambda simeq mu/3M_P. For the specific choice lambda = mu/3M_P, the model is a no-scale supergravity realization of the R+R^2 Starobinsky model.

description: The Long Wavelength Array Software Library (LSL) is a Python module that provides a collection of utilities to analyze and export data collected at the first station of the Long Wavelength Array, LWA1. Due to the nature of the data format and large-N ($\gtrsim$100 inputs) challenges faced by the LWA, currently available software packages are not suited to process the data. Using tools provided by LSL, observers can read in the raw LWA1 data, synthesize a filter bank, and apply incoherent de-dispersion to the data. The extensible nature of LSL also makes it an ideal tool for building data analysis pipelines and applying the methods to other low frequency arrays.

description: Photons are ideal carriers for quantum information as they can have a long coherence time and can be transmitted over long distances. These properties are a consequence of their weak interactions within a nearly linear medium. To create and manipulate nonclassical states of light, however, one requires a strong, nonlinear interaction at the single photon level. One approach to generate suitable interactions is to couple photons to atoms, as in the strong coupling regime of cavity QED systems. In these systems, however, one only indirectly controls the quantum state of the light by manipulating the atoms. A direct photon-photon interaction occurs in so-called Kerr media, which typically induce only weak nonlinearity at the cost of significant loss. So far, it has not been possible to reach the single-photon Kerr regime, where the interaction strength between individual photons exceeds the loss rate. Here, using a 3D circuit QED architecture, we engineer an artificial Kerr medium which enters this regime and allows the observation of new quantum effects. We realize a Gedankenexperiment proposed by Yurke and Stoler, in which the collapse and revival of a coherent state can be observed. This time evolution is a consequence of the quantization of the light field in the cavity and the nonlinear interaction between individual photons. During this evolution non-classical superpositions of coherent states, i.e. multi-component Schroedinger cat states, are formed. We visualize this evolution by measuring the Husimi Q-function and confirm the non-classical properties of these transient states by Wigner tomography. The single-photon Kerr effect could be employed in QND measurement of photons, single photon generation, autonomous quantum feedback schemes and quantum logic operations.

description: It is a mainstream idea that scale-free network would be fragile under the selective attacks. Internet is a typical scale-free network in the real world, but it never collapses under the selective attacks of computer viruses and hackers. This phenomenon is different from the deduction of the idea above because this idea assumes the same cost to delete an arbitrary node. Hence this paper discusses the behaviors of the scale-free network under the selective node attack with different cost. Through the experiments on five complex networks, we show that the scale-free network is possibly robust under the selective node attacks; furthermore, the more compact the network is, and the larger the average degree is, then the more robust the network is; With the same average degrees, the more compact the network is, the more robust the network is. This result would enrich the theory of the invulnerability of the network, and can be used to build the robust social, technological and biological networks, and also has the potential to find the target of drugs.

description: The purpose of this paper is to research what the gaming industry pays in taxes to the local and
state governments, and if the gaming industry pays a proportionate share of taxes compared to
the other sources of tax revenue generated from other non-gaming businesses in the State of
Nevada. The scope of the paper is limited to the State of Nevada, and more specifically, Clark
County. The sources used were personal observations, as well as published literature. In
conclusion, the research will show that not only does the gaming industry pay a proportionate
share of taxes to the local and state governments, but it will further show that the gaming
industry pays a larger percentage of taxes than other non-gaming businesses in the State of
Nevada to the local and state governments.
A Comparison of ASTM standard E1599-94 and a site assessment project located in North Las Vegas

Year: 1998

description: This document provides a comparison of ASTM E-1599-94 Standard for a petroleum release and the procedures performed on a site assessment project in North Las Vegas. The major elements of a site assessment are thoroughly discussed in this document. They elements consist of the Initial Site Assessment, On-Site Delineation, Off-Site Delineation, Sampling/Analysis, and Site Assessment Methodologies.
The data was obtained through extensive research, utilizing reference documents,on-site experience, and the knowledge of Keith Stewart of Stewart Environmental.
After reviewing and comparing the data of my research, the procedures applied to the North Las Vegas Site (NLVS) were quite similar to the ASTM El599-94 standard, with only a few minor differences.
Conclusions and recommendations are discussed in this document. For example, the groundwater sample results from the NLVS returned non-detect. Therefore, no remedial action was required by the lead agency, Nevada Division of Environmental Protection (NDEP). I recommend that the elevations of the monitoring wells continue to be monitored monthly and samples should be extracted and sent to the laboratory to be analyzed quarterly for an additional year. Given the high concentrations of total petroleum hydrocarbons in the soil before excavation, I would also recommend a risk assessment be performed., to evaluate the future risk of potential contamination of the groundwater.

Publisher: name: University of Nevada, Las Vegas
Year: 1999

description: The key purpose of this study was to compare and contrast the San Francisco Whole Schools Conflict Resolution Project to the School Mediation Program utilized in Clark County, Nevada. The evaluation further assessed the impact the San Francisco Project had on incidents of school-related violence in order to project these figures to the Clark County Program.
The methods used in this evaluation included a review of the implementation processes and training components for each conflict resolution program. The researcher also conducted a pre- and post- training analysis of San Francisco Unified School District incidents of school-related violence. Additionally, the Clark County School District's incidents of school-related violence for the 1997-8 school year were examined. Lastly, surveys were conducted among Clark County teachers to indicate staff perspectives of conflict resolution programs and the presence of school-related violence.
Key findings of this study indicated that the Clark County School Mediation Program closely imitates its model. More significantly, the study revealed that there is no correlation between the presence of a conflict resolution program and incidents of school-related violence.
School-related violence is a nationwide priority. However, conflict resolution programs do not reduce the incidents of school-related violence. The researcher recommends that the Clark County School Mediation Program is reexamined and that a violence prevention component is added to the curriculum. Finally, it is recommended that additional studies examining the impact of conflict resolution programs on school-related violence are conducted in this field.

In addition to mass, width, and branching fraction, we include another resonance parameter that turns out to be directly related to the pole residue phase. The new formula has two mathematically equivalent forms: one with the pole, and the other with the Breit-Wigner parameters.

Stachybotrys: Is Nevada at risk?
Creators: name: Foley, TerryLynn C.
Publisher: name: University of Nevada, Las Vegas
Year: 1998

description: Stachybotrys chartarum (atra) is a toxigenic fungus that is known to adversely impact the health of animals. Until recently, there have only been a few documented clinical reports linking Stachybotrys chartarum to human health effects. Scientists are increasingly convinced that Stachybotrys and its metabolites are responsible for several adverse health effects experienced by people all over the world, although conclusive proof has yet to be established. All the physical requirements needed for indoor Stachybotrys sporulation and growth is provided through water leaks (plumbing, roof or ceiling), flood events, nutrient sources (cellulose and nitrogen), pH, and temperature(23° - 28°C). Stachybotrys has been found in several climates around the world that are similar to those found in Nevada. Conditions that support Stachybotrys growth and confirmed contamination site locations were also similar to those found in Nevada. Also, Nevada residents who reside/work in water damaged buildings that have confirmed Stachybotrys contamination have reported similar symptoms to those mentioned in the reviewed literature. Unfortunately, scientists have not identified human toxicity levels or the dose/response relationship for humans exposed to Stachybotrys chartarum due to the lack of test subjects who were exposed and their willingness to undergo testing. Scientists are also trying to determine whether not reported Stachybotrys-related illnesses are the result of exposure to Stachybotrys alone or if there are synergistic effects with other bioaerosols and molds. What is known is that Stachybotrys spores often contain toxigenic properties, such as, macrocyclic trichothecenes which can be absorbed into the body through ingestion, skin contact, or inhalation. Nevadans who work or reside in Stachybotrys-contaminated buildings may be at risk. Health effects are numerous and may be life threatening depending on the persons age, exposure (duration and route), and toxicity level. Medical professionals and consultants should consider microbial contaminants in their assessment of their patients because there is a potential risk that Nevadans may have been exposed to Stachybotrys and its metabolites. Industrial hygienists should use a multi-method approach when collecting and analyzing microbial samples because it has a higher fungal detection rate than single method sampling.

description: From common proper motion and signatures of youth, researchers have identified about 30 members of a putative TW Hydrae Association. Only four of these had parallactic distances from Hipparcos. We have measured parallaxes and proper motions for 14 primary members. We combine these with literature values of radial velocities to show that the Galactic space motions of the stars, with the exception of TWA 9 and 22, are parallel and do not indicate convergence at a common formation point sometime in the last few million years. The space motions of TWA 9 and 22 do not agree with the others and indicate that they are not TWA members. The median parallax is 18 mas or 56 pc. We further analyze the stars' absolute magnitudes on pre-main sequence evolutionary tracks and find a range of ages with a median of 10.1 Myr and no correlation between age and Galactic location. The TWA stars may have formed from an extended and filamentary molecular cloud but are not necessarily precisely coeval.

A Plan for characterizing waste for the Defense Special Weapons Agency at the Nevada Test Site

description: In 1976, Congress adopted the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA) to govern hazardous waste. The Act was amended in 1984 with the Hazardous and Solid Waste Amendments in order to further define the requirements of RCRA. RCRA is meant to protect human health and the environment from the effects of hazardous waste, promote waste minimization, and encourage material recycling and recovery. For this purpose, regulations are implemented that cover every aspect of the hazardous waste problem, including generation, transport, treatment, storage, and disposal.
Generators of waste are the most important part of this chain. As defined in RCRA, a generator is "any person, by site, whose act or process produces hazardous waste identified or listed in Part 261... or whose act first causes a hazardous waste to become subject to regulation". It is the generator's responsibility to ensure its waste is stored properly once it is generated (40 CFR §262.34), to determine if the waste is hazardous (40 CFR §262.11), to notify the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) if it is (40 CFR §262.12), and to identify proper waste treatment or disposal options (40 CFR §262.20). Failure by the generator to perform this "cradle-to-grave" tracking of its waste can expose the generator to significant fines and penalties of up to $25,000 per day, per violation (40 CFR §262.10). Therefore, it is incumbent upon the generator to identify its waste products prior to the waste's generation.

description: Holographic methods are used to investigate the low temperature limit, including quantum critical behavior, of strongly coupled 4-dimensional gauge theories in the presence of an external magnetic field, and finite charge density. In addition to the metric, the dual gravity theory contains a Maxwell field with Chern-Simons coupling. In the absence of charge, the magnetic field induces an RG flow to an infrared AdS$_3 \times {\bf R}^2$ geometry, which is dual to a 2-dimensional CFT representing strongly interacting fermions in the lowest Landau level. Two asymptotic Virasoro algebras and one chiral Kac-Moody algebra arise as {\sl emergent symmetries} in the IR. Including a nonzero charge density reveals a quantum critical point when the magnetic field reaches a critical value whose scale is set by the charge density. The critical theory is probed by the study of long-distance correlation functions of the boundary stress tensor and current. All quantities of major physical interest in this system, such as critical exponents and scaling functions, can be computed analytically. We also study an asymptotically AdS$_6$ system whose magnetic field induced quantum critical point is governed by a IR Lifshitz geometry, holographically dual to a D=2+1 field theory. The behavior of these holographic theories shares important similarities with that of real world quantum critical systems obtained by tuning a magnetic field, and may be relevant to materials such as Strontium Ruthenates.

Prestigious journals struggle to reach even average reliability

description: The journal in which a scientist publishes is considered one of the most crucial factors determining their career. The underlying common assumption is that only the best scientists manage to publish in a highly selective tier of the most prestigious journals. However, data from several lines of evidence suggest that the methodological quality of scientific experiments does not increase with increasing rank of the journal. On the contrary, an accumulating body of evidence suggests the inverse: methodological quality and, consequently, reliability of published research works in several fields may be decreasing with increasing journal rank.The data supporting these conclusions circumvent confounding factors such as increased readership and scrutiny for these journals, focusing instead on quantifiable indicators of methodological soundness in the published literature, relying on, in part, semi-automated data extraction from often thousands of publications at a time. With the accumulating evidence over the last decade grew the realization that the very existence of scholarly journals, due to their inherent hierarchy, constitutes one of the major threats to publicly funded science: hiring, promoting and funding scientists who publish unreliable science eventually erodes public trust in science.

description: Given positive integers n and m, and a probability measure P on {0, 1, ..., m} the random intersection graph G(n,m,P) on vertex set V = {1,2, ..., n} and with attribute set W = {w_1, w_2, ..., w_m} is defined as follows. Let S_1, S_2, ..., S_n be independent random subsets of W such that for any v \in V and any S \subseteq W we have \pr(S_v = S) = P(|S|) / \binom (m, |S|). The edge set of G(n,m,P) consists of those pairs {u,v} V for which S_u and S_v intersect. We study the asymptotic order of the clique number ω(G(n,m,P)) in random intersection graphs with bounded expected degrees. For instance, in the case m = Θ(n) we show that if the vertex degree distribution is power-law with exponent α\in (1;2), then the maximum clique is of a polynomial size, while if the variance of the degrees is bounded, then the maximum clique has (ln n)/(ln ln n) (1 + o_P(1)) vertices whp. In each case there is a polynomial algorithm which finds a clique of size ω(G(n,m,P)) (1-o_P(1)).

Higher education cost leads to increased education debt
Creators: name: Bakhtary, Nasreen
Publisher: name: University of Nevada, Las Vegas
Year: 1999

description: A college education is a rite of passage for many young adults in the United States. The rate of college attendance by high school graduates has been growing steadily for more than 20 years. More than six in ten high school graduates now continue their education after high school. At the close of twentieth century, higher education appears to be more important than ever to our economy and our competitive position in the world, and to an individual's chances of sharing in U.S. prosperity. In an era of increasing income inequality, strengthening and broadening educational opportunities is key not only to economic growth but also to narrowing the gaps between rich and poor.
While the percentage of high school graduates attending college has grown, so has the cost of attending college. The cost of higher education is skyrocketing beyond the reach of many parents and students. Parents used to begin savings for college when children reached high school. College expenses were paid from these savings and current income. Today, college costs are rising faster then average income, requiring parents or students to draw more from their savings or take out long-term student loans. A family's ability to afford college is becoming increasingly important in college admissions and attendance decisions by colleges and students. To finance higher education in Nevada, parents and students can take advantage of the Nevada Pre-paid Tuition Plan, Millennium Scholarship and Student Financial Aid. The purpose of this research paper is to examine student financial aid and compare it with pre-paid tuition plans and to discuss Millennium scholarship opportunities for students graduating from Nevada high schools.
