Samuel J. Chilk Secretary U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission Washington, D.C. 20555 Re Notice of Proposed Agreement With State of Illinois Under Section 274

Dear Mr. Chilk:

This is in reference to the publication in the Federal Register on December 31, 1986 of the NRC's notice of proposed agreement with the State of Illinois for the assumption of certain of the Commission's regulatory author-ity pursuant to Section 274 of the Atomic Energy Act of 1954, as amended (51 Fed. Reg. 47327). The notice invited comments on the proposed agreement on or before January 30, 1987.

US Ecology, Inc. is a party to a proceeding before the Atomic Safety and Licensing Board regarding the low-level radioactive waste disposal site near Sheffield, Illinois,~l/

is directly and significantly affected by the propos d agreement, and intends to file comments thereon. In the Sheffield proceeding, the rights and obligations of US Ecology as an NRC licensee are now being litigated. US Ecology's motion for summary disposition is pending before the Licensing Board, which has stated its intention to rule s

Page 2 promptly and move to a ' hearing expeditiously if the . motion is denied. l 3 The notice of proposed agreement states that the application, proposed agreement and related materials are available for public inspection in the commission's Public Document Rcom. On January 5, 1987, the undersigned counsel for US Ecology personally examined the Agreement State file l for Illinois, which contained one bound and four unbound volumes. The most recent document of the -materials made available to counsel was an internal NRC memorandum dated April 17, 1986 from Joel O. Lubenau, Office of State Programs, to Richard Smith, Document Control Desk, noting that certain enclosed materials were being made available ,

for public inspection pursuant to FOIA-86-247.

It is self-evident that correspondence with the State as well as internal Staff documents have been generated since April 1986. For example, the notice of proposed I agreement refers to a letter dated October 2, 1986, by which -

Governor James P. Thompson of the State of Illinois formally

requested that the Commission enter into an agreement pursuant to Section 274. The notice also refers to various

. State regulations adopted on September 25, 1986. These

! specific documents, however, were not available at the Public Document Room at the time of counsel's examination on January 5, 1987.

! Hence, the materials necessary to make a critical

! review of the application and provide comments, as invited, have not yet been made publicly available for inspection as stated in the notice. Accordingly, the comment period l should be extended for at least a period equivalent to the time that it takes to place the full application and any other non-privileged materials involving the NRC's consideration of the application in the Public Document Room for inspection.

More importantly, the proposal by the State of Illinois for Agreement State status is unlike any previous applica-tion. To the best of our knowledge, it is the only one to l involve the potential transfer of jurisdiction to a State

! over matters which are the subject of adjudicatory proceedings where the State itself is an adversarial 9

party.2/ The thirty-day comment period routinely assigned such Section 274 applications is therefore inappropriate.3/

obviously, it is not possible to detail in advance tee comments of US Ecology on the proposed agreement without having reviewed the basic file materials. However, we do believe that a very serious and substantial issue exists as to whether the hearing rights of VS Ecology under its NRC license can be lawfully cut off, or in fairness should be overridden, by the simple mechanism of coding jurisdiction to the State of Illinois in the midst of the ongoing proceeding.

There is also, in our view, serious doubt whether the Commission can fairly substitute an agency of the State of Illinois, an adversary to US Ecology in the NRC proceeding i

and in a related State court action, for the independently I appointed Atomic Safety and Licensing Board (and ultimately the Commission itself) as the entity to determine US Ecology's rights and obligations under its NRC license.

Without asking the Commission to prejudge these issues, we

[ respectfully suggest that they deserve more thorough

research and analysis than possible under the routine
thirty-day comment period usually permitted for uncontested agreement applications. In this . regard, we note that the Staff's internal review of the draft application and formal l'

submission took over a year and a half.

t l

Therefore, US Ecology requests that the comment period on the proposed agreement be held open for a period of sixty l

days after all documents have been made available in the Public Document Room to allow full inspection and review of the application and related documents. This will fairly l
