Dear Ms. Blockey-O' Brian:
j At you request, I have reviewed the additional material that you provided me regarding the safety of the nuclear reactor at Georgia Tech. Also, as I stated to you, I would restrict my review of these additional materials to geological aspects only. ,
Based on my review of the materials provided by yourself, my previous comments continue to be j appropriate. I have no reason to change my previous position. Essentially: i
)
(1) The Wahoo Creek should have adequate bearing capacity to support the reactor.
(2) There is no specific evidence of a " sinkhole"in the vicinity of the reactor. (Note: sinkholes are a !
characteristic of carbonate rock terrains, such as limestone. There are no rocks of such character in the vicinity of the reactor. I suspect, you are using the term sinkhole to refer to the subsurface eros;on adjacent to a buried sewer. If this is the case, this would be an engineering condition, not a geological condition). l (3) The existence of the Ocoee Block does not affect seismicity or ground water conditions significantly.
(4) The cause of the " puff-ups' mentioned in your letter is unknown. They are not likely to be " pop-ups" associated with compressive forces. Whatever they are, their origin is probably non-geological.
(5) The settlement of the new dormitories at Georgia Tech is not relevant to the reactor.
(6) " Swampy
- areas are very common in the Piedmont of Georgia. They can be mitigated by simple engineering design.
4 In summary, the safety of the reactor at Georgia Tech is not influenced by geological or hydrogeological I conditions.
l Sincerely,4 n F l l JYh
