Proposed Cleanup of the Atlas Uranium Mill Tailings; Notice of Meeting

Riepilogo

The Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) is conducting a public meeting on September 16, 1998, to discuss the proposed cleanup of the Atlas uranium mill tailings at its site near Moab. The meeting location is the Grand County High School Auditorium, 439 S. 400 East, Moab, Utah. The meeting will begin at 7:30 p.m. Atlas, an NRC licensee, has submitted a plan to stabilize its mill tailings on site. The NRC has not yet made a final determination on the acceptability of this plan. The NRC Staff will make a presentation at the beginning of the meeting to provide background on NRC's regulatory review process and the progress of the review since the last public meeting held in Moab in February 1996. The meeting will then be open for members of the public to ask questions.
