Cleanup
at 3Mile
Island may
take years

WASHINGTON (AP)-It may take five to seven
years to clean up the radioactive material inside the
damaged Three Mile Island nuclear reactor, the staff
of the Nuclear Regulatory Commission said yester-
day.
In a draft environmental impact statement, the
NRC staff said radiation exposure could lead to one to
two cancer deaths among the clean-up workers, but
that health effects to the public "are essentially non-
existent."
THE COMMISSION WILL consider public com-
ment on the staff assessment before publishing a
final version. The NRC has yet to consider a detailed
plan for cleaning up the stricken reactor-a job that
will require the disposal of nearly one million gallons
of contamInated water and the removal of damaged.
nuclear fuel and reactor parts.
Meanwhile, the Union of Concerned Scientists and
five other organizations said the% will sue the NRC to
block a recent commission policy statement that
spells out requirements that newly constructed
atomic plants must meet before they can begin

operation.
The NRC adopted the policy June 16 after mor,
than a year of developing a plan to correct safety
probeimh rev aled b the March 28, 1979 Three mile
Island accidet.
THE CITIZEN GROUV charged that the policy was
adopted illegally, without public notice or oppor-
tunity to comment, and that it favors utility com-
panies.
The groups said the NRC policy allows utilities to
argue that the new safety requirements are un-
necessary, but it bars others from trying to force the
NRC to make the requirements more stringent.
The NRC plans to develop a more comprehensive
set of safety requirements for nuclear plants that
have not been constructed.
The NRC staff said it is still uncertain whether the
damaged Three Mile Island reactor can be repaired
and put back into service. The staff study opposed
any plan that would allow abandonment of radioac-
tive parts-at the Three Mile Island site, 10 miles south
of Harrisburg. Pa.

for a mutual and balanced reduction in
nuclear weapons."
Earlier, Mondale was renominated
for vice president at the convention in a
session where he was described as "the
same kind of Democrat" as Sen. Ed-
ward Kennedy.
The delegates enthusiastically
backed President Carter's decision to
keep Mondale on the party ticket.
CARTER'S HOME state of Georgia,
which passed in the balloting the first
time around, put him over the top.
Mondale was nominated by Douglas
Fraser, president of the United Auto
Workers which supported Kennedy's
bid for president this year. He lauded
Mondale as a liberal in the Kennedy
tradition in an effort to prop up the
Democrats' somewhat shaky unity.
"Ted Kennedy and Walter Mondale
are the same kind of Democrat,"
Fraser told the convention. "Ted Ken-
nedy's voting record in the U.S. Senate
and that of Fritz Mondale were vir-
tually identical."
IN AN ADDRESS to the convention
accepting the vice-presidential
nomination, Mondale defended the Car-
ter administration, saying it has com-
piled "a good solid record."
"The American people do not want to
wipe out a half-century of progress in a
know-nothing season of resentment,"
the former Minnesota senator said.
Drawing a strong contrast between
President Carter and Reagan, the GOP
standlard-bearer, the vice president
suggested the Republican nominee was
a dangerous man who did not ap-

preciate the urgent need for arms con-
trol.
ACCORDING TO a UPI survey
released yesterday, many Democrats
think President Carter needs to do
something dramatic like reducing
unemployment or freeing the Iran
hostages to defeat Ronald Reagan this.
fall.
Carter, already under an artillery
barrage from Republicans condemning
his performance in office, leaves the
Democratic National Convention with
supporters of Sen. Edward Kennedy
sniping at him from the rear.
Despite professions of unity offered
by both sides, a UPI survey in key
states indicates the losers at this week's
convention are not enthusiastic about
working for the winner.
