Dear Mr. Horsey:
I am answering your May 17, 1982, letter to John Martin about the future disposition of radioactive wastes from Three Mile Island.
I appreciate and share your concern over the possible disposal of TMI-2 processed accident-generated water into theimportant It is Susquehanna to noteRiver, that which

I would like to point ou't, as we indicated in the PEIS, none of the water disposal methods, including release to the river, would constitute a health hazard.
In both my official capacity, and.as a personal point of fiew as a long tir.ie resident of Maryland and a frequent user of the Chesapeake I would Bay, be happy I share to discuss your interest in the water disposal issue.this matter further with you and of Governments. You may reach me by telephone on (301) 492-7761.

Reuse / Recycle Alternatives 1 and 2: Reuse at TMI-1 or TMI-2 These alternatives would involve retaining the processed accident water i storage tanks, and using it, in lieu of fresh water as make-up for water When added to the cooling removed from either unit's primary cooling system.

These alternatives could not be implemented until one of the TMI units has In been restarted, and necessary regulatgry recui.rements have been met.

Implementing this alternative would take approximately The ten yea for construction of the facility, and six years to process the water.

I The entire process would be a controlled method of disposal whien would take ,
about one year or less to complete.

The tritium could be used to store the processed accident water.
However, the would be released to the atmosphere as water vapor.
volume of water in the pond would remain constant because precipitation is approximately equal to evaporation in the TMI area. Radionuclides other tha tritium would remain in pond residues, eventually requiring drainage into the river. The pond lining would be disposed of by offsita disposal.
The initial rate of release of tritium would depend upon the time of the

Prior to centration of the pond water would be equal to that of the river.

Alternative 20: Land Burial at DOE Site Same as Alternative 19 except burial would occur at a 00E site such as H Liouid Dispersal in Cribs (Hanford)
Alternative 21:
This is a controlled disposal practice, similar to leacning ponds, for intermediate activity radioactive liquid. Local groundwater is principal migration pathway. ,

Alternative 22:
This is a process which results in fast evaporation and dispersion of tritium at a remote site already cantaminated. This has been done in the past (pre-1974) with contaminated water for dust control.
I. Deep Land Disposal i
Alternative 23: Deep Well Injection at TMI Site This option would require construction of a deep well injection facility on TMI, and acquisition of a pemit to dispose of low-level wastes at that location. Satisfying these two criteria may require a long lead time; how-l ever, once these steps were accomolished the processed accident wate The water would be injected, under hign be disposed of relatively quickly.
