Dear Mr. Ballard:

The Commonwealth of Virginia has completed its review of the Draft Environmental Impact Statement for steam generator repair at Surry Power Station(Docket No. 50-280).

The Council on the Environment is responsible for coordinating the State's review of environmental impact statements and responding to appropriate federal officials on behalf of the Commonwealth. The following agencies took part in the review of this document:

Commission of Game and Inland Fisheries Commission of Outdoor Recreation Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services Department of Conservation and Economic Development Department of Health Marine Resources Commission State Office of Emergency and Energy Services State Water Control Board Virginia Institute of Marine Science Crater Planning District Commission County of Surry The Commonwealth has no objection to the proposed repair of the steam generator at Surry Power Station, Unit #1, since the repair will reduce the amount of radiation to which the public and VEPCO employees are exposed.

Thank you for the opportunity to review this draft environmental statement.

Sincerely;

~,~~

ENVIRONHENTAJ;. IHPACT STATEMENT COORDINATOR COMMENTS Based on the material presented in the Draft Environmental Statement and on independent monitoring by the Health Department of the generator repair project on Surry Unit #1, the Health Department conclude~ that we.

have no objection to the proposal project for Unit #1 ..

Our findings indicate that the proposed project can be accomplished

.without significant environmental impact. The steam ,generator repair project should avoid future occupational exposures to VEPCO personnel that*

would occur if this equipment is not replaced *.
