April 24, 1979 MEMORA';DUh OF UNDERSTANDING:
SUB JECT : EXCHANGE OF ENVIRONMENTAL INFORMATION AND DATA AT THREE MILE ISLAND
.2-With several Federal Agencies involved in the collection of environment 51' data at Three Mile Island, it is recognized that all pertinent information cust be exchanged between the various agencies on a regular basis.
- Further, it is especially important that data indicating significant levels of " ~
radioactivity in the, environment be transmitted to the NRC onsite on an ',[~,
expedited. bas,is,_in,, order that any appropriate modification of plant operations and/or other activities might be taken.
~
.m It is agreed thit the method of information exchange for priority
~
information will be by telephone notifications to the appropriate onsite agencies of significant environmental findings or changes in operation activities which may effect releases to the environment.
It is further agreed that a daily written su= mary of agency environ-mental data vill be delivered by each onsite agency to each other onsite agency prior to 5:00 p.m. each day.
The NRC agrees to make prompt distribution of this information to the other agencies.
(*
~.. I t is further agreed that releases of information concerning the
. Three Mile Island site and environs will continue to be done through the NRC.

Alternate pressurizer level correlation:
- one set of tdata has been taken with the Heise gage and transmitter starting at 0500 (4/23/79),. and ending at 0100 today.
Pressurizer level was variedffr5m 350 to 150 inches. Data between 320 and 300 inches was questionable so level will be brought up tc 350 and lowered again to obtain data.
Once data is obtained, they will analyze for possible correlation.
They have stated that they are getting "better" data than earlier.
- Although dead. weight tester has been installed, no estimated time for obtaining correlation via this method could be obtained.

At approximately 2230 the 8B neutralizer tank overflowed and ran into the auxiliary building sump; they were pumping frem miscellaneous waste hold-up tank at the t im e.
Readings at aux. vent increased for a short period up to 200-700 mR/hr.
