Gamma Rover (GRover)

Development of the gamma rover (GRover) provided the 324 Building Stabilization/Deactivation Project with a device to visually inspect and characterize the radiological conditions in the B-Cell ventilation exhaust duct. Radioactive and hazardous wastes are being removed from the building and the radiation levels in the ducts must be measured in order to determine cleanup and stabilization methodologies for the ventilation ducts. A visual inspection of the ducting must also be performed. Because of the extreme radioactive environment, all work activities must be performed remotely.

The PNNL team designed and developed the GRover for this project.
