This report provides an update, as of July 1999, on the implementation of best available technology to control or eliminate radionuclide discharges to soil columns at facilities at the Idaho National Engineering and Environmental Laboratory in accordance with DOE Order 5400.5, ''Radiation Protection of the Public and Environment.'' The best available technology to reduce or eliminate radionuclide discharges to soil columns currently implemented by the different facilities appears to be generally effective. Therefore, the different facilities should continue their current best available technology approaches, and also implement the specific recommendations listed in this report for their respective facility
