ACKNOWLEDGMENT OF RECEIPT OF YOUR JULY 17, 2019, LETTER, WASTE CONTROL SPECIALISTS CONCERNS WITH REGULATORY ISSUE

SUMMARY

(RIS) 2016-11, REQUESTS TO DISPOSE OF VERY LOW-LEVEL RADIOACTIVE WASTE PURSUANT TO TITLE 10 OF THE CODE OF FEDERAL REGULATIONS (10 CFR) 20.2002

Dear Mr. Carlson:

I am responding to your July 17, 2019, letter, Waste Control Specialists Concerns with Regulatory Issue Summary (RIS) 2016-11, Requests to Dispose of Very Low-Level Radioactive Waste Pursuant to Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR) 20.2002 (Agencywide Documents Access and Management System Accession No. ML19206A452). In your letter, you noted that RIS 2016-11 and a subsequent 2018 U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) inspection of South Texas Project Nuclear Operating Companys South Texas Project Units 1 and 2 and related NRC enforcement action (EA-18-137) have generated confusion among your utility customers. You indicated that this confusion has led to reluctance, among some utility licensees, to use Waste Control Specialists for very low-level waste disposal.

Thank you for providing your comments. We are reviewing the information in your letter and will provide a response once we have evaluated the information you provided. If you have any questions, please contact Stephen Dembek at stephen.dembek@nrc.gov or 301-415-2342.

Sincerely,

//RA//

John W. Lubinski, Director Office of Nuclear Material Safety and Safeguards
