.1-422 South Churca Street Charlotte, North Carolina-28201 Gentlemn:

Tnank you for your letter of March 3,1975, in response to our letter requesting technical detatis and status regarding the pemanent Radwaste System.

Wa understand that you have conducted an evaluation o*f the Oconee duclear Station Radwasto Systems perfomancos To assist us to also avaluate your radwasta system performance and the potential impact on the environment of the effluent releases in accordance with 10 CFR Part 50.36a, it requested that copies of these data

.cotained for the Oconee radwaste systems including waste volumes, waste sources and raddaste systems performance be provided to us.

This infomation should be in addition to that reported in the Oconee Radiochemistry Survey Program. Semiannual Report, July to December 1973, LRC-9041. Hay 1974. Tnis information would be helpful in our detemination of whether the operational difficulties experienced at the Oconee Station were unique to the station or are generic to the design. These data are also needed to evaluate the final modifications to the raddaste systems to ensurp that the modi-flod systens will provide a control of effluents in accordance with General Design Criterion 60 of Appendix A to 10 CFR Part 50 and will conform to the "as low as practicable" guidelines.

The design and construction of the radioactive wasto managenent systems should be designed, constructed, installed and maintained on a level comensurate to protect the health and safety of the public and plant operating personnel. Tne failure to the gaseous radwaste system should not result in 'a potential of doses exceeding the limits of 10 CFR Part 100. Also, the failure of any component of the liquid radwaste system should not adversely affect any potable water supplies, i.e., tne concentrations should not exceed the limits in 10 CFR Part 20 Appendix B. Table II, Column 2.
