JoMN C. GARAGMER eMear paruTy Surrouc couwrr execuTrve January 4, 1985 Mr. William J. Dircks Executive Director for Operations U. S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission 7735 Old Georgetown Road Bethesda, Maryland 20814
Dear Mr. Dircks:
There has been considerable discussion in the press recently of data developed from the Three Mile Island accident on emissions of radiouclides (the so-called " source terms" issue), and of any possibic effects on emer-gency planning for areas around nuclear power plants. Needless to say, Suffolk County continues to have a considerable interest in these matters, and we are presently litigating the planning zone issues before a Com-mission "ASLB" in connection with the licensing of the Shoreham plant.
1 am writing to request that you give me a current report on the status of the NRC's analysis of the source term data and on the status of any changes that might result to Commission regulations.
I am par-ticularly interested in what effect this new data 'and analysis might have on your presently postulated 10-mile evacuation zone for nuclear power plants.
The above is a matter of considerable importance and urgency to Suffolk County; we are concerned for the health and safety of the public on Long Island and need to satisfy ourselves and the public on these issues.
I look forward to your early response.
Sincerely, so
?
John C. Gallagher Chief Deputy f.*
