pending final disposition of the material.

4. The NRC retains jurisdiction over the radioactive solid waste issues since the record is not sufficiently developed to enable the NRC to make a final ruling. According to the Order of May 28, 1981, dealing wj.th the storage on-site of low level solid waste:

The lack of adequate record on the subject is probably attributable to the short time available to develop, Contention 4B and the underlying data.

Intervenor, METROPOLITAN DADE COUNTY, would request th'at data be developed and that the record be completed concerning the storage of low level radioactive waste generated by Florida Power

& Light during the repair project at Turkey Point. The development of this data and the record "is of critical importance to Intervenor in that the storage of low level waste at Turkey Point will have 1'ong-lasting impacts upon the local environment.

WHEREFORE, Intervenor, METROPOLITAN DADE COUNTY, requests that detailed information be developed and made a part of the record herein in referance to the handling, storage; transportation or other

. disposition to be made of low level solid waste that may be produced at the Turkey Point facility during the proposed steam generator repair project.
