ARESOLUTION REGARDING PROPOSED EXPANSIONOF HIGHLEVEL RADIOACIIVEWASTE STORAGE FACILITIESATCP&L'S SHEARON HARRIS NUCLEARPOWER PLANT t
WHEREAS, the Lee County Board of Commissioners were advised as to plans for the expansion of the high level radioactive waste facilities at Carolina Power & Light's Shearon Harris nuclear power plant in Wake County; and WHEREAS, the Lee County Board of Commissioners have been apprised of the potential risks inherent with the'doubling of the storage capacity of the temporary storage pools for high level radioactive waste for the purpose of long term storage of high level radioactive waste, not only &om the Shearon Harris plant, but also &om two other nuclear power plants &om elsewhere in North and South Carolina; and WHEREAS, citizens of Lee County who are alarmed about the plans to expand the waste storage capacity at the Shearon Harris facilityand the lack ofpublic input into the approval process for those plans have requested that the Lee County Board ofCommissioners intervene in the plan approval process on behalf of the citizens of Lee County to ensure that no such expansion occurs without the public's knowledge and consent; and WHEREAS, the Lee County Environmental Affairs Board has asked that the Lee County Board ofCommissioners request that an appropriate entity hold public hearings in which Carolina Power and Lightwillprovide additional information about its plans to expand its storage capacity at Shearon Harris and respond to questions about long term storage of high level radioactive wastes:
NOW, THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that the Lee County Board of Commissioners requests that the North Carolina Department ofEnvironment, Health, and Natural Resources and the Nuclear Regulatory Commission conduct public hearings in which Carolina Power & Light and appropriate regulatory staff: 1) explain the plans to expand the storage facilities for high level radioactive waste at the Shearon Hams nuclear power plant; 2) outline the risks or lack thereof and explain the risk assessment methodology employed to develop risk projections related to the use offacilities designed for short term storage ofhigh level radioactive wastes for long term storage; 3) outline the risks or lack thereof and explain the risk assessment methodology employed to develop risk projections associated with the transportation and handling of materials &om other distant nuclear power generating facilities; and 4) accept and consider public comments relative to support for or opposition to operating or expanding such a facilityin this area.
This, the 19 day ofJanuary 1999.
