Figures From
The CRAC-2 Report

''Calculation of Reactor
Accident Consequences''



a 1982 study by Sandia Labs, New Mexico

commissioned by the
US Nuclear Regulatory Commission



The following figures are from the CRAC-2 Report.

This report looks at nuclear power plants in the USA
and assumes a class 9 [worse case] meltdown.

The report was commissioned by the NRC
[Nuclear Regulatory Commisssion] and
carried out by Sandia Labs in New Mexico.

It was published by the U.S. Congress
and the Washington Post on November 1, 1982.

Estimates are based on 1982 population and 1982 dollars.

Estimates in square brackets are 3 to 4 times
higher than the Sandia estimates since the
authors of the NRC Reactor Safety Study found
that changing the criteria for data collection
would increase all estimates by a factor of 3 to 4.
