GODDARD MONTPELIER (UPI) The analysis to date of alternatives for disposal of low-level atomic wastes has effectively ruled out a proposed three-state dump for Maine New Hampshire and Vermont Human Services Secretary Lloyd Novick said Wednesday Novick unveiling the two month 34-page study at a news conference said it showed the proposed facility would be expensive and could not provide adequate health and safety safeguards He said the three-state dump would cost nearly half as much to develop as a proposed facility for nuclear debris from 11 eastern states And he said the three small northern New England states would pay up to 25 times more to dispose of their atomic wastes at the smaller facility than at the proposed 11-state dump is the most careful analysis to date of large

their low-level nuclear wastes such as equipment and protective clothing contaminated by radiation Vermont Maine and New Hampshire each are considering a proposal in which 11 eastern states would join together to establish a regional facility The plan is favored by Gov Richard Snelling and New Hampshire Gov John Sununu However the three states generate significantly less radioactive wastes than more industrialized states to the south and some lawmakers fear northern New England could be called on to host the large dump under the proposed 11-state compact Consequently a three-state steering committee has begun reviewing options for a smaller dump which would be used only for the 50000 cubic feet of low-level wastes generated annually in Maine Vermont and New Hampshire Together the 11 states targeted for the broader proposal generate more than 1 million cubic feet of low level wastes annually acording to Novick And he said the agency study Barbara Farnum left may win Montpelier She

have to provide financial incentives which would be built-in with the larger 11-state dump to attract a commercial operator Such operators generally require a 40 percent rate of return on their investments he said Novick said at the 40 percent return rate the three northern New England states would pay more than $252 per cubic foot to dispose of their wastes at a small dump but less than $10
