'As per our agreement, I've outlined below how we would proceed now on the question of solidification. of.THI 2 resins. It still appears that there .is .

some confusion w1. thin,yout group regarding. the basic elements of our agreement.

I would very mch like, to.ha.ve this settled one. way or another before we get down to'the Commission. hearing on .this rebject. I hope that this outline .

will serve to clarify the. . discussion during the 11 a.m. meeting scheduled '

. for October 3,. .l979,_between Sob B.rsn.ing and . Dick Vollmer. , , .

HMSS concurs with beginning operation of EPICOR-II to process the radioactive contaminated weste water.wh.i.ch, has accumulated in the THI Unit 2 auxiliary building tanks ppoy.ided, arr.angements are made in parallel to obtain capability to solicify the _resulting re. sins and filter redia. These arrangements should be uch that: . . _ .-.... ... . - . . . - - . - . . . . . ... .

(1) No dsatie[ed7acuun. dried msins and filter media should be shipped from THI-2 for disposal., six. Exmths after the start up of EPICOR-II.

Subjequent to this six-month period, all resins and filter media shall be solidifi.ed pr.i.or .to shipment. .

(2) The occupational radiation exposure 'from post-processing solidification shall not be significantly greater, than that wh.ich would o_ccur frts
