Dear Chairman Zech:

This correspondence is to seek your assistance in matters related to the Oyster Creek Nuclear Generating Station at Forked River within our legislative district in southern Ocean County, New Jersey.

Under existing state law, the siting of hazardous waste disposal or storage facilities within a 20-mile radius of a nuclear generating plant is prohibited. New Jersey, like many other states, is facing a crisis in handling growing volumes of toxic wastes. There are, therefore, growing concerns and actual legislative initiatives that propose to permit the siting of l toolc waste facilities within 20 miles of nuclear generator

! stations.

We request from your office information regarding how the NRC and other states deal with this issue. For instance, we would like to know the proximity of all hazardous waste l facilities to nuclear plants around the country. Secondly, we seek information regarding the NRC's established policy position toward the siting of hazardous waste facilities near nuclear plants.
