EXHIBIT C AFFIDAVIT OF DOUGLAS KING ON CONTENTION 4 B

1. My name is Douglas King. My business address is Palmer School, 7900 S. V/. 176th Street, Miami, Florida, 33157.

statement of agr professional background and aualifications is attached to this affidavit and made a part thereof.

2. This affidavit addresses contention 4 B which.states:

There are likely to occur radioactive releases, (from the steam generator repair) to unrestricted areas which violate 10 CFR Part 20 or are not as low as reasonably achievable within the meaning of 10 CFR Part 50 as a result, of a hurricane or tornado, striking the site during repairs.

3. I participated in the Turkey Point site'nspection on April, 19, 1981 as a member of Intervenor, Mark Oncavage's party- The inspection was authorized by the Atomic Safety and Licensing Board for the purpose of discovery.
4. I observed several locations of loosely stacked, sealed drums, in roped off areas. These drums were identified as containing radioactive -material
5. I monitored a few of these locations of loosely stacked sealed drums with a geiger counter. The readings indicated radiation above the background level.

6. The drums were apparently sealed but were neither f'astened down nor covered. Zhe drums were subject to weathering and other natural forces.
7. Zn all, several hundred drums were observed at these locations. At some locations, drums were loosely stacked on top of each other.
8. NUREG 0743, the inal mvironmenta1 Statement, states that the estimated amount of'adioactive solid waste generated f'rom the steam generator repair ranges f'rom 1100 cubic meters to 2300 cubic meters, per unit. This

,estimate excludes the lower assemblies and the normal amount of solid waste from operations of'75 cubic meters, per unit per year.

9. MIRZA 0743, the Final environmental Statement, states that the waste limitation for Turkey Foint wastes at the Barnwell disposal .site is 57 cubic meters, per month, starting October 1981. No other site for the final disposition of these wastes is mentioned in the Final Environmental Statement.
10. I am professionally concerned that the ability of the sealed drums to completely contain the radioactive wastes

will diminish, due to long term outdoor storage where natural weathering forces such as high rainfall, high humidity, high temperatur e, sunshine, salt spray, and storms can environmentally degrade the sealed drums.

CONCLUSION'f a =hurricane or tornado, with the ability to breach and flood the drums of radioacti've wastes, were to strike Turkey Point, a contaminating accident will occur. The magnitude oZ the contamination would increase es the the numbers of breached drums increases. The vast amounts of wastes discussed and the degradation of the drums increases the potential of the contaminating accident. The present practice of outdoor storage of, radioactive wastes in a hurricane prone area (see Leonard G.

Pardue affidavit, paragraph 3) is an abandonment of the ALAM principle. In view of the vast amounts of radioactive wastes that will be generated by the" repairs and. stored on site, the present practice of loose, outdoor storage is unreasonable.
