NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION -
3E W ASHINGTON, D. C. 20555 o%
f June 23, 1993 CH AIRM AN The Honorable Michael O.
Leavitt Governor of Utah Salt Lake City, Utah 84114
Dear Governor Leavitt:
I am writing to invite the State of Utah's continued participation in the Nuclear Regulatory Commission's State Liaison Officer program.
It is my understanding that the most recent State Liaison Officer, Larry Anderson, Director of the Division of Radiation Control in the Department of Environmental Quality, has vacated his position.
I trust that you share the Commission's belief in the value of this program and will advise us of your new appointee at an early date.
In 1976, the NRC adopted a recommendation of State organizations, including the National Governors' Association, that we request each State to appoint a single person to act as liaison to NRC for the purpose of improving Federal / State cooperation.
The NRC looks to the Governor-appointed State Liaison Officers to provide a communication channel between the States and the NRC;-to be the key person in the State to keep the Governor completely informed on nuclear regulatory and related public health and safety matters; and to provide NRC with answers to questions posed to the States on particular issues.
The individual you select to perform this function should be someone from your staff who can communicate effectively with other State agencies on issues related to the regulation of radioactive material and commercial nuclear power reactors.
We will keep you informed of our programs and activities through this individual.
At the same time, we will maintain our ties to those State agencies with whom we have established relationships for specific issues.
I look forward to Utah's continued participation in the NRC's State Liaison Officer program.
If you or your staff have any questions or wish additional information, please contact Carlton Kammerer, Director of NRC's Office of State Programs, at 301-504-2321, or Charles Hackney, our Region IV State Liaison Officer, at 17-860-8267.
Sincerely,
