It is particularly disturbing that the decision to Indefinitely postpone work on a second repository was based partially on.the Department of Energy assumption that defense waste in mingle-shell tanks at Hanford would not be placed in e repository.This implies that the Department of Energy has ,3.3.6.7 f .,. 01 O OO 2 .1.O The Department's unilateral decision to e depend the second 2 .2.14 repodtocy siting program violate. both the intent and letter of the law. As a member of the Senate Environment and public Works Committee during 9 the 97th Con g rose, I was deeply 8y involved in developing the Nuclear Waste Policy Act of 1982. I was responsible for including in the Act provisions that require the siting at A second repository and place A cap On the amount of waste disposed of in the first repository.. My intent ion was to ensure that the first repository site would not later become the already decided not to choose the option of disposing of Hanford' s existing defense Waste Ina repository. Under existing law, no more than 70,000 metric tons of high level ..waste can be disposed of in the first repository. If Hanford's existing defense wart. was added to commercial waste and other defense waste the combined total Weald exceed 80,000 metric tons. The Department'.

I am deeply concerned that the Department of Energy's illegal second repository decision will add pressure by the Department to statilize the single-swell tank ... to in place. Another issue of particular concern is that the Draft Environmental Impact Statement dose not adequately address the 3.3.2.1 13
