New Developments on Storage of High Level.

. Nuclear Waste at Palisades N-Plant

. A number of significant events have occurred in the past few weeks that warrant this review of the status of the loading of high level nuclear waste in concrete casks at the Palisades site on the shore of Lake Michigan.

These events include discovery of strong internal dissent* on the part of a Senior Inspector toward the current licensing practices of the NRC for storing high level nuclear waste at. reactor sites. This Senior Inspector is Dr. Ross Landsman of the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC). *This licensing procedure does not allow for a site specific environmental impact statement or a public hearing. It was used for the first time to establish dry cask storage of nuclear.

waste at the Palisades plant.

It can now be used at' every reactor site in the country for dry cask storage of. nuclear waste with no public hearing or site specific* environmental *impact statement.

It is called the NRC's "generic~

licensing rule.

~

Landsman stated in his letter, "It is apparent to me that NMSS "(Nuclear

/ Materials Safety and Safeguards, a division of the NRC).. doesn't realize th atastro hie cons uences of their continued reliance on their current eolo

{Exhibit ll By "current ideology" he means this newly instituted *generic" ru e.

second event was Consumers Power Co.'s assessment of their own performance at a. meeting with the Nuclear Regulatory Commission held in Rockville, Md. on Aug. 25.

During this meeting, the* utility admitted how extensive their internal *problems have been in meeting *quality assurance programs.

At the meeting, the NRC

confirmed the utility's low standards of performance.

Page Two The third event is

discovery that the procedur.that were develbped for unloading the VSC-24 cask as required by the Certificate of Compliance are now not considered adequate for unloading cask No. 4. This cask has a crack in a

. weld on the metal basket that holds the nuclear waste inside the concrete c*ask.

It was discovered after the cask was loaded.

Procedures for unloading these casks are required as a condition for their licensing, and must be in place before the casks are loaded.*

Each of these events will be further explained to provide a clearer perspective of the extent of the problems in the nuCiear industry today and of the regulatory practices of the NRC that are detrimental to the public interest.

This past winter, the

NRC took the unusual step of sending a senior inspector to the Palisades plant site to review the dry cask storage site. This was.

done a year after the casks were licensed and two of them were Joa.ded.

The inspector, Dr. Ross Landsman, was to determine if the allegations that site specific conditions exist. making this critical dunes area unstable.were correct, and whether they should have been considered. before the cask storage plan _was started.

He was to review allegations that the environmental impact statement**

and other' studies prepared for the licensing of the nuclear plant itself could not apply in any meaningful way to the casks and the storage. pad. This is the manner in which the NRC has justified not allowing a public hearing or a site specific environmental impact statement-for* the cask storage at the Palisades site.

NRC has made Palisades its test case. for this approach which it cal~s "generic* licensing of dry cask storage of nuclear waste.

The.Agency is pow ready to apply this "generic" approach to every nuclear plant site in the country without.. regard for local conditions.

There are 14 sites on the shores of the Great Lakes on the U.S. side where this licensing process could be applied.

. This liCensing approach is DOW' going. forward at the Point Beach n-pl~nt in Wisconsin on Lake Michigan, at* the Davis-*Besse n-plant on Lake Erie in Ohio, and at a nuclear plant,in Arkansas called Arkansas One.

Dr. Landsman toured the site and determined that 'the allegations were correct.

He found that the nuclear plant had a foundation that was set on, bedrock, but that the casks wen~ placed higher up in the. middle of the sand dunes on a *concrete pad.

That made* their structural conditfons quite different, and, in his opinion, required *separate site specific studies of the casks, storage pad and foundation material.

Regulatory Commission, describing his concerns that require these studies, and his special concern about seismic conditions at various ~EQLlf nuclear plant sites.

He concluded with bis opinion. that the current *generic*

Dr. Ivan Selin, Chairman of the Nuclear AA&R.e' licensing practice can have *catastrophic consequences".

In other wonts. NRC's own Senior inspector is 1elHne tbe Agency lhat this course of action that was beeun at Palisades can have these drastic consequences if allowed to be used at every plant site as Is now the cqe.

Don't Waste Michigan has not raised seismic issues at the Palisades site, but we do recognize their importance at other plant sites.

However, we have stated that the Michigan Department of Natural Resources has designated this a

High Risk Ero~ion Area--and. Critical Sand Dunes* area. (Exhibit 2) The Army

Corps of Engineers bas reached the same conclusion.

Studies that were made at Michigan's nuclear plant site by independent consultants for the State in* trying to find a site* for a "low-level" radioactive waste facility reached the conclusion that none of the plant sites were suitable for such a facility. The Geology Department

of ihe University of Michigan has characterized the Lake Michigan dunes as massive land formations that are in a constant state -0f dynamic change

because of wind and wave erosion, and the changing ground water and lake levels..

It is these studies that we believe should have been a part of a public hearing and environmental impact statement before the cask project was initiated.

Our confidence in the ability and competence of Consumers Power Co. to deal with. nu cleat* waste issues has been further eroded as the result of **.:.. recent meeting ~n _Roc~ille, Md. between the utility and the NRC on August 25.

f Consumer~ Power Co. was asked by the NRC to assess its own performance that has resulted *in the quality control. breakdowns that we, are* witnessing with the casks.. The utility stated the following issues in their. assessment:

L The quality* assurance (QA) program implementation was not adequately verified early in the fabrication process.

2. A more rigid source *Verification plan should have been invoked during fabrication.

3. Poor oversight plan definition and execution.

Page Four

4. Our early actions emphasized production and sent the wrong message. to the new QA organization of the vendor.

5. Frequent Sierra Nuclear Corp. QA manager turnover contributed to a lack of QA program implementation priority.

6. Root causes of audit findings were not identified.

7. CPCo project organization lacked integratjon and focus.

8. Large workload and competing work priorities of the project team.

(Exhibit 3)

At this same meeting, the Nuclear Regulatory Commission evaluation team

. identified root causes of the utility's poor.performance as follows:

1. Acceptance of low standards of performance.

2. Failure to integrat~ processes and clarify and communicate roles arid responsibilities.

3. Failure to ensure effective self-assessment and quality oversight. *

4. Failure to develop and implement an effective corrective action program.

(Exhibit 4)

Don't Waste Michigan (DWM) had for somt; time been-_ bringing. to the attention of the NRC and Consumers Power Co~* certain quality control p~oblems that had occurred* during the fabricatiOn of the metal baskets.

These baskets contain' the nuclear waste inside the. concrete cask called the VSC-24.

PubHc documents indicated that NRC inspectors had found problems.in_ welding -

procedures during the fabrication of these metal bas~ets. (Exhi~fr 5)

We askedc to have records showing how these welding problems were resolved place~ in the Public Documents Room.

The public would then have the assurance that these important matters were resolved.

Recently, Consumers '

Power Co. revealed that a crack was found in one of the welds of cask no. 4 that was already loaded. The utility ha~ announced that this cask will be unloaded.

Instead of moving ahead with the unloading of the cask, however, we are now told that there are a number of procedures that may require a three

that quite astounding.d irresponsibJe for

. months period to resolve. ~e. find the* following reasons:

A pJan for unloading these casks was required by NRC regulations to be in place* before the cask was licensed and loaded with high level nuclear waste.

If there is no adequate plan in place, as we are now told, the* fuel loading was m violation of the license. (Exhibit 6)

In addition, Consumers Power Co. had pledged to the U: S. Court of Appeals that they could unload the first two casks and place the waste back in the spent fuel pool if the Court held against them. This was to off set the request for an injunction to halt the loading of the casks until a full hearing was held and an environmental impact statement was developed.

This occurred in the law suit filed against the NRC by Attorney General Kelley, Lake. Michigan Federation and Don't Waste Michigan.

Now we find that this cannot be readily done.

The warnings of a Senior Inspector of the NRC tell us that the "generic" licensing approach that the Agency began at Palisades can potentially have

'-7 "catastrophic consequences" for the country if the Agency continues to rely on it.

Therefore. we ask that this "generic" rule which eliminates public participation in high level nudear waste disposal at every plant site be withdrawn by the NRC.

Less than 2 weeks ago, Consumers Power Co. admitted its poor performance in quality. assurance practices.

Among the causes given were a large workload and competing work priorities at Palisades. The NRC recognized the "low standards of performance" of the utility.

Within that period of time,

we have also learned from CPCo that there is no comprehensive, workable plan..

in place for unloading these casks..It is in the process of devising one by putting together a special project t~am.

In view of these facts. we find NRC's decision to allow more casks to be loaded as a shocking and reckless disregard for the *public interest. since there is no record of how these weaknesses in CPCo operations have been remedied. and their technical personel is now even more burdened than -at the time the poor performance causes _ w_ere disclosed.

We need a Cc:mgressional investigation of the whole licensing and regulatory process of the NRC.
