Dear:
Governor Florio:.
As-~you assume the Office of Governor of New Jersey, 'I look forward to.
--working 'with you~ to fulfill' the Nuclear Regulatory Commission's (NRC's) iresponsibilities to protect public health and safety in regulating nuclear'
. facilities and materials. _ One important aspect of NRC-State cooperation in this regard is the NRC's State Liaison Officer Program. Accordingly, I am writing to invite New Jersey's continued participation in that program.
{
'In 1976, the NRC adopted'a recomendation of State organizations, including
..the National Governors' Association, that we' request each State to appoint y
a single person to'act as-liaison to NRC to improve Federal / State coopera-tion. - The NRC.looks' to the Governor-appointed State Liaison Officers.to provide a comunication channel between the States and the NRC, to be the.
key person in the State to keep the Governor completely informed on
~
regulatory health and safety matters as appropriate to their. interests and responsibilities, and to provide NRC with answers to questions posed to the States on particular issues.
Tormer Governor Thomas Kean appointe'd Christopher Daggett, Comissioner of the. Department of Environmental Protection, as the most recent-New Jersey State Liaison Officer. The NRC will continue to work with Mr. Daggett l
unless you infom us of a new choice. We will keep you informed of major E
L NRC programs and activities through your. appointee. At the same time, we will maintain ur ties to those State agencies with whom we have estab-lished relationships for specific issues..
l l-If you or your staff have any questions or desire additional information, p
please contact Carlton Kamerer, Director of State Programs, Office of L
Governmental and Public Affairs, at (301) 492-0321, or Marie Miller, our Regional State Liaison Officer, at (215) 337-5246.
Sincerely, M A,,
