Draft EIS Published Five alternatives to cleanup radioactive wastes and facilities at the Western New York Nuclear Service Center are detailed in a draft environmental impact statement, recently released by the Department of Energy and the New York State Energy Research and Development Authority. The two agencies will be seeking comments on the document during the six-month public review period which ends September 22, 1996. The study considers the environmental impacts of remedial alternatives for the West Valley Demonstration Project which is concentrated on a 200-acre portion of the site. The alternatives range from no action, discontinuing operations and leaving the site as is, to achieving a complete cleanup that would allow unrestricted use of the property.
Citizens can review the draft document at area libraries.
