Re: Barnwell Access Fees

["Walter J. Blatchford" <wjblatch@bellatlantic.net>]

As the Northeast Regional Sales Guy for USEcology, a radwaste broker and
processor, I deal with a number of plants. Within my region, all but
three commercial nuclear sites have a stated preference for Envirocare,
and we have been directed to process their wastes to meet the E'care
acceptance criteria. Those three holdout sites are awaiting the results
of pending re-licensing activities. The major driver to use E"care is
that burial charges can be as low as one third of that at Barnwell.
For further info, feel free to call me at (215) 953-1995.
