Dear Mr. Lacker:

,5 Thank you for your letter dated A>ril 1,1986 which provide (Toiiiints

, ' art 40 regarding ground water MRC's draft' amendments to 10 CFR

' protection aspects of uranima mill tailings, and also expressed several concerns about the impact these proposed rules will have on Agreement State programs.

A copy of your April 8,1986 letter was supplied to the NRC's Division of Waste Management. Their comments are provided as enclosure 1 and are .

keyed to your April 1, 1986 letter. -

Your letter also asks if these rules will be an ites of strict compatibility. 10 CFR 40 has its basis and foundation in the Uranium i Mill Tailings Radiation Control Act of 1978 as amended (UMTRCA) and EPA standards 40 CFR 190 and 192. Consequently, if and when these revisions are published as a final rule they will be considered a' matter of compatibility.

We would note that Section 274o of the Atomic Energy Act of 1954 as amended provides a mechanism for a State to adopt alternatives (including where appropriate site-specific alternatives) to the requirements adopted and enforced by the Commission for the same purpose.

We appreciate receiving your input.

Sincerely, orig WN unsba#

p' Donald A. Mussbaumer Assistant Director for State Agreements Program Office of State Programs
