1AAR 011985 The Honorable Jack Kemp United States House of Representatives Washington, D.C. 20515
Dear Congressman Kemp:
Thank you for your letter of January 25, 1985 concerning an unsolicited
- proposal submitted by ENSA Corporation entitled, " Study Survey of Radioisotopes Re-Concentration Within New York State Sanitary Sewage Systems and Landfills."
Our technical evaluators have evaluated ENSA's proposal and share the concerns it addresses regarding the potential for re-concentration of radionuclides in sanitary sewage treatment facilities and landfills. Our Office of Nuclear Regulatory Research is conducting an agency evaluation of potential pathways to man for radionuclides released into sewer systems. When this study is completed around the end of this fiscal year we will have a better knowledge of these pathways upon which to base future research studies. However, at the present time there is no agency funding budgeted for additional research.
We have informed ENSA of the results of our evaluation.
We hope this information will assist you. If we can provide further information, please let me know.
8506100493 050417 ncerely.

Dear Commissioner Roberts:
Thank you for your response of February 6,1985 to our letter dated December 4, 1984 confirming our comments and recommendations on the Depart-ment's radiation control program.
The action plan described in your letter and its attachment reflects a thorough and comprehensive evaluation of the program and our recommendations. We recognize the high level of effort that was involved in carrying out the evalu-ation and preparing the plan, and we appreciate these immediate and positive responsive actions. We believe this action plan, when fully implemented, will result in the establishment of an adequate and compatible radiation control program.
We plan to conduct our next regular review of the Department's program in May 1985. Your action plan, including the goals, objectives and implementation of response measures will be considered an integral part of that review. It is our intent to make a final determination of adequacy and compatibility following this scheduled review.
Thank you again for the comprehensive response to our concerns.
Sincerely, Original signed by The:as E. Marley Thomas E. Murley Regional Administrator cc: See Next Page OFFICIAL RECORD COPY 1 j
