Rulemakings and Adjudications Staff.

Among the proactive measures Three Mile island Alert supported was- a requirement that "NRC licensing decisions relating to high-density pool (HDP) storage of spent fuel be accompanied by an environmental impact statement that addresses the potential adverse consequences of HDP's at that nuclear plant or facility, and provide scientific alternatives for avoiding or mitigating those impacts.") (TMI-Alert's Petition in Support of the Massachusetts Attorney General's Petition for Rulemaking RE: Docket No. PRM-51-1o, p. 4) bmnp/Že~566~/- i?$~9 Lr*c y~- 0o9-/

TMIA further stated that should the Commission accept Massachusetts' Attorney General's Petition for rulemaking, the NRC "should withhold any decision to renew the operating licenses for nuclear power plant extensions currently before the NRC, until the requested rulemaking has been completed, and until the NRC has completed the NEPA process for consideration of environmental impacts of high-density pool storage of spent fuel at the Pilgrim and Vermont Yankee nuclear plants. (TMIA, p. 4.)

Specifically, TMI-Alert respectfully requests that permission to relicense the Re: PPL Susquehanna LLC Application for Susquehanna Steam Electric Station's Renewed Operating Licenses NPF-14 and NPF-22 Docket Nos. 50-387 PLA-611o and 50-388 be held in abeyance until the requested rulemaking has been completed, and until the NRC has completed the NEPA process for consideration of environmental impacts of high-density pool storage of spent fuel at the Pilgrim and Vermont Yankee nuclear plants.

In as much as the Petition filed by TMI-Alert in parallel NRC forum may have implications on the proposed relicensing of Susquehanna Steam Electric Station, Mr. Epstein is enclosing a copy of the TMIA's comments for all participants in the Present Proceeding.
