We believe this arrangement v.ould :.ravide actter safeguards)or the puolic h
I than the current procedure of pers. tira a company to bcor the larger part of the responsibility for monitoring th e mstes frem its plants, 6
i For over thirty years, there h:,:..:w,
k
- 3 cocrat ion a precedent for, what
]
we are propos ing. Uc re(cr t e ; -
by your Ocpertment under the !ica.. ce :it.aty cannery inspect lon provided r.c Snicty Code with the inspection 3

.ct,d laborcter,y costs prorate ( to

thct the servige. provided ur.dcr bi; c n.sgr. ment are more. impartial r
.l then when the same services a re r c,vidui cirectly by the industry concerned.
4
)
Vc believe that an arrangement i.i :!c :o : hat provided for cennerics shouhf 5
i be established for utilitics cc r
-10 l
- s 'ag nuclear energy for their fpel.
It would increase irrineasurably a
- mf!dence in such companies since it i
would be recssuring to know tnu c ". er:m:nt of Public Health was, ~at all l-4 e imes, fully cognizant of alI pi is n tI.is monitoring. The ut li f t les, ccm.-
2 l
3 penics should bear, the costs of c:.olyses and the services of..
- r.::c.-ing instruments, the laboratory t
i.c..c :c e :. The inspectors would be hired by and responsibic to the De;;rt.,t of Puilic Health.
)
2 The second resolution adcpt:. i.y th : C*S's Board of Directors is also i
concerned with protection of cc:.: ic s frat red ist ion hazards. We belleve thrt the two types of dutics of :
4 ment and Acdiat ion Prot.ect icr. shc. id bu scoorated.a Czord inator of Atomic Energy
]
The protective aspects i
should be placed in the Departmce.r of P.;blic Health, and the development a
actIvitles should be as,signcc' to nr.:
k c:hcr agency.
.j j
l We think it is not reallstic to opc:t a single individual to discharge
\\
{
both responsibilities equally well since they may at times be in conflicc a j
gm The protective functio,ns could be acre effectively carried out by your
.j Department and public educot tonal infor. nation would be more acceptable to our citizens if it came from cr spency such as yours.
o Both of these proposals.for improving protection of the public in the crea of radiation,will probably require legislative actions.
It is not too soon
- i to start thinking about such matters in terms of the 1965 legislative ses -
sion.
We trust you will give serlous consideration to these recommendations.
s end that you will call them to the attention poofUc who are in the position of JudgJng them on their merits. -
