Chemical and radiological data are described for samples of riverbank seepage, nearshore river water, and sediment associated with seepage. Sampling locations are along the right bank (generally southern shoreline) of the Columbia River on the Hanford Site. Locations extend from the 100-B Area approximately 26 miles downstream to the northern edge of the Hanford Townsite. The data were obtained during (1) environmental surveillance activities and (2) remedial investigations to characterize the influence of contaminated groundwater on the Columbia River.
