Dear Chairman Zech:

SUBJECT:

ACNW COMMENTS ON PROPOSED BRANCH TECHNICAL POSITION I CONCERNING ENVIRONMENTAL MONITORING FOR LOW-LEVEL WASTE DISPOSAL FACILITIES During the second meeting of the Advisory Comittee on Nuclear Waste, j July 21-22, 1988, we met with the NRC staff to discuss the referenced '

Branch Technical Position on environmental monitoring for low-level waste disposal facilities which has been deferred because of resource limitations. As a result of these discussions, we offer the following i l

coments, which were affimed on August 4,1988 during the third meeting of the ACNW.

Because of the importance of this subject, particularly to the many states currently planning the establishment of such facilities, we l

believe that effort should be reinitiated to complete and issue this  !

Branch Technical Position. In addition, the overall purpose of this position needs to be clarified, specifically to indicate whether it is being prepared to provide guidance on monitoring policy or to prescribe detailed monitoring requirements. l As this work progresses, the Comittee would like to be kept informed.

Sincerely, ade W. Moe d Chairman
