From page 1...
... The study~s environmental models focus on the principal environmental pathways-atmospheric dispersion, air-to-ground deposition, ground-to-air resuspension, and runoff and leaching of radionuclides from soil and storage sites to surface water, groundwater, food, and forage. The National Research Council committee paid particular attention to the description of particle-size distribution and to the assessment of radon releases from storage silos.
From page 2...
... The committee finds that the conceptual approach that RAC proposed for modeling environmental pathways is sound. Much work has been done by RAC in preparation for performing the actual dose calculations but it is not yet clear to the committee if sufficient effort to uncover data has been invested by RAC.
