Naturally Occurring Radioactive Materials (NORM) is a common and costly contaminant of produced waters associated with natural gas production and exploration. One way of combating this problem is by identifying the problem beforehand. Our approach to this problem involves development of NORM prediction capabilities based on the geological environment. During the fourth quarter of this project, emphasis was placed on three major tasks; identifying new sampling sites, continuance of preliminary geologic data acquisition, and determining acceptable project revisions
