June 22, 1989 Mr. Victor Stello NRC Executive Director of Operations U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission 11555 Rockville Pike Rockville, Maryland 20852
Dear Mr. Stello,
I am writing to you in regard to an upcoming permit to be granted to the Rockwell International Testing Laboratories on June 30, 1989.
I am opposed to the granting of this permit for the following reasons;
- 1. Why am I interested?
I am a property owner in Bell Canyon, California and live and work within two (2) miles of the Rockwell International's nuclear research facility in the Simi Hills. On June 18, 1989 the Daily News reported
" extensive testing completed last September at the facility turned up several areas of radioactive contamination that were previously unknown, company officials say". The L.A.
Times also reported " Federal energy department officials Thursday. released documents showing that dozens of nuclear workers at Rockwell International in Canoga Park and it's Santa Susana Field Laboratory were exposed to excessive j radiation levels in the 1960's. The records reveal no overexposure in the subsequent years, !
and an energy i decartment official described the 1960's events as minor l crerexposures' with 'no health consequences' for the workers.

Dear Executive Director for Operations:
-As a retired professor of Teacher Educations Global ~Interde-pendence Education, as President of the D nited Nations Associa-tions' San Fernando Valley and as a member of homeowner and-environmental organizations, I have an intense interest in the quality of life, locally as well as globally. Locally, this virgin area in- the past forty years accumulated 78,000 people who live. within a 5 mile radius of the 40 year old plant and. 444,755 people within 10 miles. How safe are
-the evacuation plans?
I urge _you to call for a hering to consider whether Rockwell and'the Department of Energy at the Santa Site, 6633 Canoga Ave, Canoga Park, CA 91303, be allowed to renew its permit becanse of the following concerns.
The Daily News reported May 14, 1989 that the U.S. Department-of Energy had found 10 areas of potential toxic or radioactive contamination at ' the f acility :in the hills between Simi Valley and Chatsworth. The_ DOE report, based on a survey conducted a year ago, said there was no immediate threat to public health ;
but called for further testing. Cancer results from a cumulative j long term threat so the previoun statement'ir. not reassuring. '
p There are three areas where radioactive contamination could .
have ocenrredt I The Sodium Burn; Pit. One acre, 3 miles west of Chataworth,= l vas!used from the early 1960's through 1978 for disposki of '
chemical waste, including solvents, metals and some radioactive
' wastes. Unauthorized radioactively contaminated equipment was buried-in trenches and scattered on the surface. Soils within ]
the burn pit area of the facilities are contaminated with t chlorinated organics, heavy metals and low levels of radioactivity, {
principally Cesium-137. Berms to prevent rain water that l
falls on the burn pit, from running off the side and down to j the Simi Valley,were deteriorated and would allow the runoff I to escape in a storm. '
Buildina 059. The survey found ground water seeping into the lower levels of Building 059 where small nuclear reactors were tested and where radioactive material and equipment remain.
It is unclear whether any radioactivity moved out of the build-l g J
l rn-ing before the seepage was discovered and pumping began.
Leach Field. Radioactive contamination remains in bed-rock at a leacn field, or pit, enabling wastewater to seep into the soil that served sewer lines from the company's Radioactive Materials Disposal Facility, where radioactive wastes were treated and packaged for shipment. The leach field was contaminated by mistake in 1975, DOE records show and a cleanup continued until 1978. The DOE consultant, Werner said that they scraped off all the surface dirt and jack-hammered through 10 feet all the surface dirt and jack-hammered through 10 feet of solid rock and it was still contaminated with radioactivity. They said they could not go any further.
Extensive testing was completed last September at Rockwell International's nuclear research facility at Santa Susanna site, four months after a Department of Energy survey team found 10 areas of potential toxic or radioactive contamina-tion.
Several areas of radioactive contamination that were previously unknown turned up in the soil and the equipment, company officials said. (Daily News, Sunday, June 18, 1989 by Tony Knight)
Rockwell has agreed to drill over a dozen wells to see if there is danger of contamination of the ground water. Wells from ground water furnish 15% of the drinking water of Los Angeles.
I don't consider this good management.
In addition, a few million gallona of treated waste water is d dumped into Bell Creek a few days each month. Who is monitor-ing this besides Rockwell management. I wouler how trust-worthy they are in their monitoring? Look at the criminal probe currently taking place by the FBI at Rockwell-DOE's Rocky Flats site near Denver, Colorado. The state of Colorad contends the 1
Dept. of Energe and Rockwell International did the followings Improperly stored hazardous and radioactive vastes.
- 2. Failed to adequately monitor ground water for contamination.
3: Stored hazardous wastas in leaking drums. (Daily News, June 8, 'E Sone governmental regulatory agencies stated that they were unaware that any nuclear activity was involved at the site.
How could this oversi ht 2 (mismanagement) take place?
I Today, the United States Congressman, Elton Gallegly has called l
for the U,S. Environment 1 Protection Agency to conduct a full scale review of contamination at Rockwell International's i nuclear research site near Chatsworth and Simi at Sante Susanna. "That's oeen my biggest. concern, that nobody knows who's in charge." Galleply said. "The meeting today forced the L issue. (Daily News, June 22, 1989) l l EPA has now agreed to become fully immersed in this, to take an independent and totally analytical look at the situation et Rockwell--Santa Susanna site.
With such uncertainty, I feel that a hearing is necessary i 1
1 before this plant receives a renewal of a nuclear permit.
