SUBJECT:
1997 INSPECTION OF SHIPROCK TITLE I SITE
Dear Mr. Edge:
The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission staff has reviewed the 1997 annual inspection report for the Shiprock, New Mexico, Title i site. Based on this review, we conclude that the inspections and remedial measures being performed are acceptable,
- Staff notes that the U S. Department of Energy is recommending that a biointrusion study be performed to determine the effects of deep-rooted species on site performance. The issue of penetration of certain species, such as tamarisks, into the radon barrier may have significance at other sites. Please keep the staff advised of the progress of this study, if it is performed.
This review was performed by Ted Johnson. If you have any questions, he may be contacted at (301) 415-6658.
Sincerely,
[0riginalsigneaby]
