-FOR DECONTAMINATION OF INTERMEDIATE LEVEL RADI0 ACTIVE WASTE WATER AT THREE MILE ISLAND UNIT NO. 2 i
41TU Pursuant to the National Environmental Policy Act and the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission's regulations in 10 CFR Part 51, notice is hereby given that an Environmental Assessment and Negative Declaration prepared by the Commission's Guice of Nuclear Reactor Regulation related to the decontamina-tion of intermediate level radioactive waste water at the Three Mile Island Un t No. 2 nuclear power plant is available for comment.
Metropolitan Edison Company, the licensee for Three Mile Island Unit No.
2, proposes to use an EPICOR-II ion exchange decontamination system to decon-taminate the intermediate level radioactive waste water which has been held in tanks at Three Mile Island since the accident at that facility on March 28, 1979.
T e Assessment considers the environmental impacts resulting from use of EPICOR-I: including risks from possible accidents, and it also considers alternatives
- use of EPICOR. The Assessment and the accompanying Negative Declaration conclude that the environmental impacts of use of EPICOR-II will not signifi-cantly affect the environment, and therefere that preparation of an Environmental Irpact Statement is not required.
The Assessment does not consider ultimate disposal of the decontaminated waste water because use of EPICOR-II will not foreclose any options for such ultimate disposal and because disposal will be the subject of a subseouent Assessment.
Furthermore, the Assessment does not consider the decontamination or disposal of the high-level contaminated waste water at Three Mile Island.
Decontamination and disposal of that waste water will be considered in future A:sessments.
