ALCHEMIE'S LETTER DATED 8-17-88 TO NRC COMMENTS 10 CFR 50 Non Applicability (Revision 1 to Nov. 17, 1987 submitted) 50.34(b)(6)
A1ChemIE has not shown Tennessee Department of Health
_(iii), (iv) and Environment (TDH&E), conclusively, that there is no radiological hazard.
50.34(b)(8)
A1ChemIE has not shown TDH&E, conclusively, tha t there t
50.54(1-1) is no radiological hazard.
(j), (k), (1)
+
(m), (y) 50.34(c)(d)
S ta tenent made tha t there are approximately 170 grams (c) of U-235 on equipment.
In a letter to NRC, dated 50.54(p) 6/9/88, other numbers are given tha t differ from the above.
Which is correct? One hundred seventy grams is licensable under Tennessee regulations and jurisdiction.
10 CFR 50 EXEMPTION REQUIREMENTS 1.
A.
AlchemIE has not positively shown TDH&E tha t there will be no radiological release.
Also, sta tement is made that the "facility is to be used for the production of stable isotopes" but in July 20, 1988' letter from AlchemIE to NRC, item 2, it is s ta ted i
that Tellurium-123 will be enriched "to about 50" percent.
These statements present confusion tlat has not been clarified.
D.
Again 41ChemIE has not shown that there will be "no threat of radiological release."
