Our organisation was established in August,

1988, and is very concerned with the proper repositing of low-level radioactive nuclear waste.

Since the State of Michigan is currently studying three areas of the state for the establishment of such a repository we have done extensive studies and research and we have discovered. that the steam generators of one unit of the Ronald C.

Cook plant at 3ridgman,

Michigan, are being replaced.

)le have also been informed that the generators, being highly radioactive, are being stored on site in concrete

bunkers, uncovered, and that the NRC approved this method of storage.

Please explain to us on what grounds you'can approve an uncovered storage of such highly radioactive material.

Awaiting a reply, I,
