In sid-April, 1979, without any opportanity for public co=nen: or . ireview, the defendant approved a plan to at:empt :o decontamina:e outside the t I ; auxiliary building and dumo the 150,000 gallons of radioac:ive sastesater )"now contained in the aaxiliary building.

' 17. During the course of the accident, a high percentage of the nuclear . J " i j f uel rods located in the reactor core were oxidized and da= aged. Sc=e e the j i k wastewater currently 12 the reactor buildings has been directly exposed to ; , ' i ] damaged cladding and fuel pellets. ' + i 13. The waste currently in the reactor buildings centains very high and i a a i potentially lethat amoun s of biologically significant radioactive isotopes, , i l including bu: not limited to plutonic =-238, strontien-90, cesic=-137, iodice- , i ! . < 121, tricium, and carbon-14. ! I 4 - 19. Due to the accident and the ' resul:ing levels of highly toxic radioac-| ' 2 ~ tivity, reactor building No. 2 has been sealed. i i s Lefendant 710 estimates that the level of radioactivity attributable: j 20. !!1 solely to the gases in :he c.atainment building is about /=100 per *= hour , a ;4 although. the appropriate monitor is reading about 8,500 res per hour. Oefe: dant i . # , has publicly stated that many plant instruments have been disabled by high | I radiaticn and flooding; 'urther, defendant VRC has admitted it vill not be ablel ! | co check these instruments until it is safe to enter the containment building.f I ^- ! ! . 21. : De f endant NRC's regulations set the maximum permissible-levels I 1 of radiation in unrestricted areas at 0.5 rem per year. ! 4 E ~. In addition to the gases in the building, there are other sources nff - radioactivity within the wastewater, which has not been sa= pled because it is 4 4 2nsafe to enter the containment building. The possibility of an accidental '. release of :he radioactive waste gases and water is increased because the e gfe. pressure inside the containment building is greater than one atmosphere. 1 , a 13 Oefendant does not know the precise a=ounts and identity of the | ]radioisotopesinthe wastewater, and therefor _e does not know exactly wnat , , ag e . . \ . .. . i / e'd y ,* , - :nere is to decon:acinate, and :ses no: know :ne .c l e u :; anc cr;_ . ec;fic ~ 1:ng terb doses to be expected if my of :Te .ns:a-ater escapes. ! 14. *he NRO has esticated that it will procably not be safe :o , M , .

Mr. Voll=er stated that ) ' * there is some uncertainty as to the radioac:ivity of cl.e vaste in the pri=ary ;| I ' coolant sys tes and the containment building.

Mr. Voll=er stated tha:: 1 (a) the NRC's reviev af Me t Ed's plans and actions is a con- l tinuing process, including monitorir_g, inspe: tion and enforcement, ! ! I' =uch of this review ha s no t been performed using the same ' j (b) ' | f o rma t as the nor:al review process used by the NRC in '4ashington, 30, but that the KRC staff at Ohree :dile Island has =ade the reviews the s taf f :hought were .! rneeded; , , s 1 1 1 (c) the radioac:ivity levels and i=our.ts of water in the con- | t a '.nmen t building are unusual; I I (d) the six of isotopes in the pri:ary coolar ad the contain- ' ment building water may be unusual; a (e) that the applica: ion of decontamination technology to such a | , large volu=e of wa:er is anusual. 14. Mr. Collins sta:ed that a nuclear fuel processing plant on !daho I, has processed higher levels of radioactivity than presentlyin exis: the pri- ;ary coolant sys:en and contain=ent butiding, but that :he Idaho plan: , 1:scharges its wastewater to an underground deep aqt if er , which is about 100 frem the oearest ra w water intake for a -ajor supplier of drinking ,. =iles j water. g i i , . . .. . t _ .__ 256 036 . . . :au, y i . . ! - ne ; . .- .5 nr .

Mr. Vall=e r said that he feared that notice to ' 4 | ; downstream asers of the li:es cf certain iischarges would be a confusing f ac- i I tor because discharges are routine and almost continuous. 1 i Mr. Cri=es stated . . the decontarination syr a:s sculd be located.' :, 19. , j ou: side the heavily reinf orced containment and auxilary 51 .ldings. i (I , t ! 20.

On December 1, 1955, the City of tancaster Authority entered into a t lease with the City of Iancaster whereby the water sys tem serving Lancas te r City, I Pennsylvania, and its environs, was leased by the Authority to the City of ' ' = |Lancaster. ! ) I j 3. On t f.e date, the City of tancaster Authority entered into a 4 trust indenture securing its water :evenue bonds which were subsequently sold to h | the general public in the open bond :arket. | 4.

Pur s t a n t to the terms of the lease and the indenture, the Authority Licollects rentals from the City of '2ncaster derived f rom the revenues earned by; I i I the City's water system, shich revenues are in turn paid over by the Authority i i ' 1 to the trustee under the truat indenture and ultimately used to pay the interest * and principal on the Authority's bonds to the holders thereof. .I , | * . l * . ._ ! . . ,--a- - , .. . = - - - . . - e. - = = " " ' " " 256 04) 4 . . i 052379 { < - , i . i | | 6 i ^ 1 , | .
