Environmental Monitoring From a

State Perspective

Purpose of the Environmental Monitoring

Program

• Establish long term Base-line isotopic back-ground

• Demonstrate Compliance

• Maintain public confidence

• Monitoring Started prior to electrical generation

• Monitoring area • Within 10 miles (16.1km) of a nuclear power plant

Lessons Learned

• Sample Collection Parallel Decommissioning Activity

• Find a way to preserve records (time capsule)

• Maintain contacts with appropriate state and federal agencies.

• Ensure that you’re on call list for prompt notification

• Know the waste route

• Document
