. 01 January 15, 1980 I wrote to NT Caimn John F. A ecrne urg ng of radioactive wastes frtrn that tN NBC s!culd not permit the releass a
tree Mile Island "before it has te tenefit of *.re & tailed aralysis I
and public review cryi ccrrent that a carpletal envircrantal rpact statcr1ont is dr sigyd to provi&." I am correirmd tMt a cimrly i
i' stated policy acnins. pemitting waste disear Jes until an EIS is em-pleted is the Nat ev to insure that the Wree Mile Islam clean-ep r
is carried out "in the Mst interast of tM pxh: health a-d safety."
