Dear.Ms; Monaco:

l ~T '

I am responding to your May 10,- 1990, letter to Thomas Combs, asking for consents on several points of discussion covered during your May 1,1990, meeting with the' Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC)t staff. Our coments, below, correspond to the numbered points in your letter.

1.

Exclusion area means the area surrounding a reactor in which the reactor licensee has the authority to determine all activities including the

' exclusion or removal of personnel and property from the area. With-respect to low-level waste (LLW) storage activities, the NRC maintains sole jurisdiction within the exclusion area for all activities in

= accordance with 10 CFR 150.15(a). Outside the exclusion area, storage activities wculd be subject to Agreement State jurisdiction. With respect to LLW disposal, the Agreenent State has regulatory jurisdiction for licensing disposal-both within and outside the exclusion area.

t 5.

The type and extent of issues covered during a hearing on an application are determined by the Administrative Law Judge or Panel assigned to hear "the' case.

You should note under this point, that the judge or panel will normally limit the scope of issues to that within admitted contentions submitted by.the parties.

6.

10 CFR Part 61 agplies only to LLW disposal. Thus, the coments on

>" masking effects only apply to disposal facilities covered by Part 61.

7.

Eliminate the words "Part 100 or" from the second line. Also, it should m

'be understood that the " lengthy and drawn out" process applies to a decrease in the size of the exclusion area.

8.-

A 10 CFR Part 50 license would not be required, only an amendment to the existing Part 50 license would be needed.

E

'With the niinor clarifications noted atove, your letter accurately reflects the irecting. discussion.

I would also refer you to the specific guidance contained in Generic Letters 81-38 and 65-14, Information Notice 90-09 and Vandy Miller's May 3,1990, letter to States and Compacts, with which I understand you are f amiliar. As with ar.y staff position, the staff positions l \\

presented in our discussions reflect our best guidance and understanding of NRC regulations for protecting the public heahh and safety, at this time.

In many cases, the guidance and positions are straightforward.

- however,_ the review process for an application, which may involve extensive internal and external-review, could result in final positions that are not identical to the staff's current understanding.

I trust this response will be of assistance to you..
