We will be releasing D2O to the atmosphere within the pine forest at SRS and sampling it downwind using Universal Gas Analyzers, bagging air samples at height, and taking vegetative samples (pine branches) to assess how quickly airborne D2O is entering the pine needles.  No environmental impacts are expected as the D2O is expected to diffuse to background levels within 1/4 mile.  No facility impacts are expected.
