Dear Mr. Miller:
l Thanl< you for your letter of February 18,198?, which transmitted copies of the droit l
environmental impact statement related to the License Renewal and Power increase for the National Bureau of Standards Reactor, Montgomery County, Maryland. We have reviewed the draf t statement and have the following comments.
Water Sampling The streams sompled in the environmental monitoring program should be named and shown on figure 4.2. Consideration should be given to including Lol<e Elysium, downstream from the reactor on the Muddy Branch tributory that drains the reactor site, in the sampling programe Seismicity While the discussion of the seismicity of the area around this site is reasonable, there is no indication as to the manner in which this information was used to influence the design of either the reactor building or the equipment within that building. The final statement should indicate how this data was used in the design of the facilities.
We hope these comments will be helpful to you in the preparation of a final statement.
Sincerely, f,b(,6V fZfd I
