Surface, intermediate and near-bottom water samples were collected at two of the North East Atlantic radioactive waste dumping sites (47 ◦ 14'N, 05 ◦ 33'W and 45 ◦ 27'N, 06 ◦ 16'W) in the course of a sampling campaign in June-July 1998. Analysis of 239,240 Pu concentrations show no significant differences with respect to measured concentrations in waters taken from control (background) stations well removed from the dumping sites.
