i February 9, 1967 Mr. k'illiam D. Travers Director, TMI-2 Cleanup Project Directorate Post Office Box 311 Middletown, PA 17057
Dear Mr. Travers:
I received a copy of the Programmatic ?.nvironmental Impact Statement Felated to Disposal of Accident-Generated k'ater.
I support the dispesition of the water by evaporation, solidification of bottoms, and transfer of solids.
1 oppose both the long term and short term discharge to the Susquehanna River for the following reasons:
Accidental discharge of the water before it has been retreated.
a.
b.
Impcundments in the river that would hold up and retain the accident generated water in the vicinity of river intakes for weeks.
c.
A downstream water intake not closed during the passage of the water, d.
Cumulative effects with Peak Bottom water.
Potential damage to marketability of Chesapeake Bay seafood.
e.
I am also uncomfortable with the growth and regrowth of the micro-organisr.s.
I am not convinced that an " ordinary river micro-c,rganism" remains so af ter it has been exposed to radiation for an undetermined amount of time.
I appreciate the NRC's concern and care exhibited throughout the past alcest eight years. Please don't jeopardize the situation at this date.
Your continued cooperation is deeply appreciated.
Sincerely, Catherine 1. Riley Senator CIR/dm 8705130148 870507 PDR ADOCK 05000320 P
