Mr. Egan then outlined the inputs to the development of the final rule, which included public hearirgs and review by an EPA Science Advisory Board (SAB), further comments sought on issues and alternatives raised by public coments, and other inputs. He said that the SAB report was comprehensive and scientifically competent, which endorsed the probabilistic structure, a 10,000-year time frame, use of release limits (individual dose), assurance requirements (as guidance), and the relentict of the disposal standards by a factor of 10.

He stated that, in 1980, the Commission asked the NRC to consider the need for additional emergency preparedness at fuel cycle facilities. In 1981, orders requiring onsite plans were issued to certain licensees, and an advance notice of proposed rulemaking was issued on this subject.

of the meeting. He introduced the men,bers of the ACRS Subcomittees, consultants and staff, and confirmed the final agenda and topics to be Covered.

EPA Presentation - D. Egan_

Mr. Egan comenced by citing the Atomic Energy Act and Section 121 of the Nuclear Waste Policy Act as the authority under which the EPA, DOE and NRC roles in this program are defined.

EPA has the responsibility

i. _

Jy for the Standards (40CFR191), DOE the System Guidelines (10CFR960), and NRC the overall performance cbjectives (10CFR60). Both the DOE and NRC e

~

parts have been done without the EPA standards being finalized.

Mr. Egan then outlined the inputs to the development of the final rule, which included public hearirgs and review by an EPA Science Advisory Board (SAB), further comments sought on issues and alternatives raised by public coments, and other inputs. He said that the SAB report was comprehensive and scientifically competent, which endorsed the probabilistic structure, a 10,000-year time frame, use of release limits (individual dose), assurance requirements (as guidance), and the relentict of the disposal standards by a factor of 10.

The most active topics being considered in the EPA Standards are the Assurance Requirements, the definition of Accessible Environment, Groundwater Protection requirements and Subpart A (see following paragrapt).

Mr. Egan reviewed the structure of the latest draft (No. 6) which was ret tvailable prior to the meeting, but was handed out during the reeting. The most critical elements of the proposed 40CFR191 are:

Subpart A --

Standards for Management and Steragre 191.03 - Standards --Dose Limits:

25 mrem whole body, 75 mrem ttyroid, and 25 mrem any other organ Subpart B --

Standards for Disposal 191.13 - Containment Requirements 191.14 - Assurance Requirements 191.15 - Grrundwater Protection Requirements 191.16 - Alternative Standards for Certain Existing Wastes Appendix-Guidance for Implementatien Mr. Egan then answered several questions on the preceding material, followed by discussions (with numerous questions) on each of the Subparts and elements of the Subparts. Details of the presentation and W-

discussion are found in the transcript of the June 18th portion oi the meeting.

~.

Mr. Egan then outlined the balance of the rulemaking process which is to culninate with the issuance of the final rule by late sumer,1985.

(Note: The final rule was originally mandated to be issued in January, 19E4).

The balance of the morning session was devoted to questions, answers, ar.d discussions of variou:; aspects of the proposed final rule among the participants (see transcript for details).

The Subcomittect' reviews, comments and recomendations re:;ulting from this presentation and discussion are contained in a letter drafted durir.g this meeting. This letter is to be considered by the full Comittee at its July 11-13, 1985 meeting and, if approved, transmitted to the Cerr.issioners shortly thereafter. Until that time, the letter is classified Official Use Or.ly and therefore is not provided with these minutes.

NRC Coninents - H. Miller and D. Fehringer H. Miller of NRC/WM Staff introduced the NRC presentation, stating that the NRC emphasis throughout the period of EPA's writing the standards has been on the following topics:

1.

Accessible Risk 2.

Achievability 3.

Implementation of Standards 4.

Consistency between NRC Technical Criteria and EPA Standards He stated that there is good compatibility and consistency between NRC and EPA as a result of NRC's closely following EPA's efforts. He also said that it is reasonable to expect that the DOE sites being

  • investigated can meet the EPA standards in spite of some features with respect to hydrology that might make one site fail (site not I

identified).

e

'Mr. Miller then answered several questions regarding achievable cost, use of existing mines, nuclear waste fund, the SAB report and NRC's corntents and recommendations to the EPA regarding the SAB report and EPA's relaxation of standards.

D. Fehrirecr continued the NRC prest.ntation, indicating that a staff paper is in preparation, "in closure" with staff (i.e., it has the NRC staff's agreerent), which is also in agreement with EFA staff's position.

It will be issued in the near future, subiect to approval by the Commission (which hed authorized the staff to negotiate with the EPA on this matter).

DOE Conrents - R. Stern R. Stern did not make a fermal presentation or have any handouts. He said that DOE has worked with EPA, is familiar with the SAB report, and that there are no major issues to be resolved. He offered to answer questfors; the principal points resulting were:

1.

Relaxing the 1,000 health effects per 10,000 years would not help DOE, nor would it change things (except possibly the selection of sites), nor would costs be reduced.

2.

The 1,000 health effects are an outgrowth of the 25 mrem /yr to an individual.

3.

Relaxing the standards would make it easier to assure that the standards are met.

i EPRI Coments - R. Catlin Mr. Catlin was an alternate to the SAB for F. Culler and, as such, His participated extensively on the SAB subcomittee on this subject.

principal ccmments follow:

1 1.

The reduction from 10 to 2 kilometers of the horizontal distance from the original location of wastes in a disposal system to the beundary of the accessible environment was significant.

2.

Neither the SAB nor EPA recommended individual risk levels.

3.

EPA never tells you hcw the release rate ties to the health effects.

4.

The EPA standard should at least be internally censistent regarding whole body vs. single organ exposure, using ICRP infonnation for nuclide releases but not for organ doses.

5.

The EPA standards do not provide the rationale for the risks they selected as being acceptable.

6.

Drinking water standards cover all supplies, so groundwater is already covered by this standard.

7.

The EPA conservatisms may warrant an increase in the release risks.

8.

Low collective doses for millions of people are questionable.

9.

Where the cost of a repository will be $10 billion to $20 billion to save-1,000 health effects, we may not be getting a reasonable return for money spent.

WASTE MANAGEMENT / SITE EVALUATION 7

June 18-19, 1985 Meeting DOE (ANL) - Risk Balancing - T. Gilbert Mr. Gilbert discussed the developrent and potential utilization of a I

model for balancing various risks. The question "Can this model be applied to a practical problem, particularly as it relates to the EPA standards for a geologic repository?" was discussed. Regarding Risk Management Strateoy, be stated that the basic philosophy should be laid out to balance economics and to equalize risk.

Executive Session A discussion of the principal issues relative to the EPA stan dards, taking into account the EPA and subsequent presentations, led to the preparation of the aforementioned draft of a letter to the Commissioners for full Committee consideration during its July 11-13, 1985 meeting.

WEDNESDAY, JUNE 19, 1985 Dr. Moeller made a few, brief opening remarks, then introduced Dr. S. McGuire of NRC/RES, principal author of the following proposed rule.

Proposed Rule on Emergency Planning for Fuel Cycle Facilities -

Dr. S. McGuire Dr. McGuire gave a formal presentation on this topic, starting with a review of the background. He stated that, in 1980, the Commission asked the NRC to consider the need for additional emergency preparedness at fuel cycle facilities.

In 1981, orders requiring onsite plans were issued to certain licensees, and an advance notice of proposed rulemaking was issued on this subject.

The proposed rule, scheduled to be submitted to the Commission by July 31, 1985, would codify, with some modifications, the 1981 orders, and would require approximately 60 licensees to either (1) lower their to

possession limits, (2) perform an evaluation to show that a significant 'b.

s.; 5' release is not possible, or (3) submit an emergency plan.

Dr. McGuire then discussed the nest significant accidents, viz., (1) cylinder, (2) fires involving sudden rupture of a large, heated UF6 by-product materials or plutonium, and (3) a pulsating criticality accident.

He further discussed the atmospheric dispersion (versus distance) of the radicactive materials in the event of an accident resulting in a release, under various conditions of buoyancy.

He presented and discussed a comparison of how much doses would be reduced in a more realistic, typical or actual situation, giving a dose reduction fdctor for each of 12 conditions cited (entitled Conservative Factor). An example follows:

for the Conservative Factor entitled

" Worst-Case Release Fractions " the Dose Reduction Factor is "10 to 100 for more typical fires." Fis overall conclusion is that the range of possible doses presented in the regulatory analysis is generally 1% to 100% of the conservative er wcrst-case values.

Dr. McGuire went on to present and discuss at length a table listing the quantity (in Curies) of nearly 100 radioactive isotopes and various mixtures of radioactive materials, fission products, corrosion products, etc., that would require consideration f the need for an emergency plan for responding to a release.

He then discussed

1. What would have to be contained in a licensee's emergency plan,
2. What would not be required to be contained in a licensee's emergency plan, and
3. How many licensees would be affected.

,(

WASTE MANAGEMENT / SITE EVALUATION 9

June 18-19, 1985 Meeting The details of the presentatien are contained in the transcript of the meeting, specifically in the handout centained therein entitled

" Briefing for ACRS on a Proposed Rule...." (Handout No. 12 listed in I

, )

Three of the more pertinent questions and points that were discussed during anc' after Dr. McGuire's presentation were:

1.

Q.: How do these requirements compare to emergency planning requirements in occupational safety?

A.: Dow, Union Carbide and duPont all have extensive occupational safety programs. OSHA does not require emergency planning.

2.

Q.

Does a licensee have guidance on calculating accident doses?

And what conservatisms are allowed?

A.:

Staff ccnsensus is difficult; licensee will have to use conservative assumptions for essentially all steps in the process. NUREG-1140 (Handout No. 14 in Attachment 3) says that emergency planning should be based on realistic assumptions, not conservative ones.

3.

Out of 500,000 licensee years, althcugh 5,000 accidents have occurred, none has resulted in a dose to offsite members of the public exceeding M of the one rem effective dose equivalent suggested in the proposed rule. Dr. McGuire said that statistics do not negate their efforts--they are dealing with a low-probability, low-consequence event.

The meeting adjourned at 10:?5 a.m.

It was followed by an Executive Session during which a letter to the Cccrifssion was drafted providing the Subcomittee's consnents and recommendations on this subject. The draft letter is not included with these ninutes as it does not yet have full ACRS approval.

It will be considered at the July or August full Comittee meeting before being sent to the Comission and subsequer.tly released to the public.
