SUBJECT:

Draft EIS for Claiborne Enrichment Center (CEC).

~

I reviewed the Summary and Conclusions section of the DEIS for CEC and find it eminently satisfatorily. From a national energy security point of view we must have this and similar facilities, in operation as soon as possible.

I recommend that the new NRC 10 CFR Part 20 limits be adopted by the EPA under 40 CFR Part 61. These 10 to i discrepancies are confusing.

The scetion of Decontamination and Decommissioning (D&D) is mercifully short. Until we have an accepted level below which D&D needs no further clean up or disposal -- i.e. BRC level -- the American ratepayerfand taxpayers are wasting billion of dollars that could be of better use in deficit reduction. I propose that only 107. of the costs of D&D should be included in the CDP calculations.
