Statistical Abstract of the United States. As noted in Section 0.1.2, this is the standard summary of statistics on the political, economic, and social organizations of the United States. It needs to be available to update sections of the book. One or two copies of this expensive publication should be available in a reserve area of the departmental library for easy access.

CFR1910—OSHA GENERAL INDUSTRY STANDARDS SUMMARY AND CHECKLIST... 

Section BT1.2 provides a brief summary of experimental methods and instmmentation, including definitions of some of the standard measured spectroscopic quantities. Section BT1.3 reviews some of the theory of spectroscopic transitions, especially the relationships between transition moments calculated from wavefiinctions and integrated absorption intensities or radiative rate constants. Because units can be so confusing, numerical factors with their units are included in some of the equations to make them easier to use. Vibrational effects, die Franck-Condon principle and selection mles are also discussed briefly. In the final section, BT1.4. a few applications are mentioned to particular aspects of electronic spectroscopy. 

Mizutani and colleagues reported the development of a new method for the analysis of 1-malate. As part of their study they analyzed a series of beverages using both their method and a standard spectrophotometric procedure based on a clinical kit purchased from Boerhinger Scientific. A summary follows of their results (in parts per million). 

Franke and co-workers evaluated a standard additions method for a voltammetric determination of Tl. A summary of their results is tabulated here. 

Of the adjustable parameters in the Eyring viscosity equation, kj is the most important. In Sec. 2.4 we discussed the desirability of having some sort of natural rate compared to which rates of shear could be described as large or small. This natural standard is provided by kj. The parameter kj entered our theory as the factor which described the frequency with which molecules passed from one equilibrium position to another in a flowing liquid. At this point we will find it more convenient to talk in terms of the period of this vibration rather than its frequency. We shall use r to symbolize this period and define it as the reciprocal of kj. In addition, we shall refer to this characteristic period as the relaxation time for the polymer. As its name implies, r measures the time over which the system relieves the applied stress by the relative slippage of the molecules past one another. In summary. 

Foreign. The OECD/NEA and IAEA have issued annual reports on world uranium resources, production, and demand since the mid-1960s (2—6). NEA/IAEA data for reasonably assured and estimated additional resources at costs of 80 and 130/kg uranium are given in Table 2 (21). These estimates incorporate data from both former world outside centrally planned economies (WOCA) and non-WOCA nations. A summary of other known uranium resources with and without cost range estimates is provided in Table 3 (22). These resources total about 1.4 x 10 t and include estimates that are not strictly consistent with standard NEA/IAEA definitions. 

The specific use appHcations of sodium chlorite varies from country to country. Important factors are the regulatory and environmental laws in effect for air and water quaUty standards. Sodium chlorite is generally priced at about four to six times the cost of sodium chlorate. The Hst price of 80% technical-grade NaC102 in January 1991 was 2.65/kg (146). In 1990, the estimated consumption of sodium chlorate for the production of sodium chlorite in Canada was about 2700 metric tons and about 9100 metric tons in the United States (74). In Western Europe, the 1990 chlorate consumption estimate was about 11,000 metric tons. A summary of 1991 U.S. and foreign sodium chlorite producer annual plant capacities in various world market areas is given in Table 3. 

Preparation and chemistry of chromium compounds can be found ia several standard reference books and advanced texts (7,11,12,14). Standard reduction potentials for select chromium species are given ia Table 2 whereas Table 3 is a summary of hydrolysis, complex formation, or other equilibrium constants for oxidation states II, III, and VI. 

Color Vision Defects. Anomalous color vision is present, eg, if one of the three sets of cones is iaoperative (dichromacy) or defective (anomalous trichromacy). This affects 2—3% of the population with males mote prone because these defects reside on the X-chromosome, with one present ia males but two ia females. Eye specialists have standard tests for detecting these and other defects. Summaries of this whole field are available (6,9,22).

What follows is a very brief summary of the extensive work of Pratt and his coworkers, Dell, Gayler, Lewis, Jones, Roberts, and White [Trans. Inst. Chem. Eng. (London), 29, 89, 110, 126 (1951) 31, 57, 69 (1953) Chem. Tnd. (London), 1952, p. 358]. For the standard commercial packings of 1.27-cm (l/2-in) size and larger, at low values of V, (j) varies hnearly with up to values of (j) = 0.10. With further increase ofV,. (j) increases sharply up to a lower transition point, ... 

This is a brief summary of NFPA 704 which addresses hazards that maybe caused by shoii-term, acute exposure to a material during handling under conditions of fire, spill, or similar emergencies. This standard provides a simple, easily recognized, easily understood system of markings. The objective is to provide on-the-spot identification of hazardous materials. 

Review Documentation The project review team leader has the ultimate responsibility for documenting the results of the project review. This responsibility may be delegated to a team scribe or secretary to record trie review minutes and issue a summary report with listed action items. The action items could address exceptions to company or industiy standards and government regulations, review team recommendations based on experience and knowledge, and further issues for study that could not be resolved during the review session. 

Raw data must be analyzed and transformed into a format useful for specific purposes. Summary tables, graphs, and geographic distributions are some of the formats used for data display. Air quality information often consists of a large body of data collected at a variety of locations and over different seasons. Table 15-3 shows the tabular format used by the California Air Resources Board to reduce ozone hourly measurements to a format which shows information about compliance with air quality standards (6). The format has location, maximum values, annual means, and number of occurrences of hourly values above a given concentration as a function of the month of the year. One can quickly determine which areas are violating a standard, at what time of the year elevated concentrations are occurring, and the number of good data points collected.

In the Encyclopedia, 50 brief articles (each 10—18 pages in length) are presented in a standard format designed for ease of reader access, with straightforward technique descriptions and examples of their practical use. In addition to the articles, there are one-page summaries for every technique, introductory summaries to groupings of related techniques, a complete glossary of acronyms, and a tabular comparison of the major features of all 50 techniques. 

The articles follow a standard format for each technique A clear description of the technique, the range of information it provides, the range of materials to which it is applicable, a few typical examples, and some comparison to other related techniques. Each technique has a quick reference, one-page summary in Chapter 1, consisting of a descriptive paragraph and a tabular summary.
