ABSTRACT

An investigation of the potential hazard from airborne releases of depleted uranium
(DU) from the Army's M829 munitions was conducted at the Pacific Northwest
Laboratory. The study included: 1) assessing the characteristics of DU oxide from
an April 1983 burn test, 2) postulating conditions of specific accident situations, and
3) reviewing laboratory and theoretical studies of oxidation and airborne transport
of DU from accidents. Results of the experimental measurements of the DU oxides
were combined with atmospheric transport models and lung and kidney exposure
data to help establish reasonable exclusion boundaries to protect personnel
and the public at an accident site.
