Subject: Powernet: Effluent Tritium sampling method

Duke Energy would appreciate your answers to the following questions about 
sampling for tritium in air in effluent (i.e. Unit Vent effluent sampling)


1)       What method do you use for sampling tritium in air? (bubble impinger, 
silica gel, cold trap, or other method)

2)      Have you documented the efficiency of the method used?

Thanks in advance for your response.
