South Carolina will accept only half the low-level nuclear waste it has been getting from other states, Gov. Dick Riley said Wednesday. Other commercial dumps in the nation have been closed. The new Chem-Nuclear Systems Inc. operating license,which goes into effect Thursday, calls for the company to reduce the volume of waste it accepts from out-of-state from 2.4 million cubic feet to 1.2 million feet by October 1981, Riley told a news conference. Chem-Nuclear has been receiving about 85 percent of the nation's low-level waste. The remainder was going to now closed ' ! ;?!? nn>| iaclIlllttS ill waaiuii^iuu aiiu BECAUSE THE 240-acre Barnwell facility is the only commercial dump operating, Riley's announcement has national implications. About half the wastes buried at the site come from seven states in the Northeast and Midwest. "It is imperative that these and other states take action now to develoD other sites across the country. There are no legitimate impediments to such action," he said. "I wish we had no high-level or low-level nuclear waste, but the situation is otherwise. We can't keep proceeding into a never-never land saying someday, something will be done about nuclear waste," Riley said. The reduction at Chem-Nuclea . will be effective immediately with Chem-Nuclear expected to cut its November waste load from ar anticipated 200,000 cubic feet tc 189,000 cubic feet, Riley said. Foi the first few months, the reduc tions will be implemented on ? "first come, first served" basis with shipments accepted until th< volume acceptable for the period i: reached. By the begining of nex year Chem-Nuclear is expected t< come up with a plan for orderly across-the-board reductions. ; LOW-JLJEVPL WASTE generated v\.> v;*w 4 layer died f^iliirp AMAAVtJL Platte wa Editor died because of a collapsed heart , Richland County coroner. ybe he had to pump blood a little valve is one of the valves through id valve." v :al records is "idiopathic myocarit the cause of disease is unknown larged not on one side but all over j killed him if it hadn't been for the said.

Riley, a critic of the federal government's inaction on the nuclear waste issue, said he hoped his announcement would force Congress to come up with a national nuclear waste plan. "I do think there will be a reaction in Congress, but this has been in a jelling period for a number of months. I hope this will result in Congress* resolving the nuclear waste disposal problem," Riley said. Tne governor saia ms announcement should come as no surprise to other state governors of Washington "I SET OUT my policy when I took office. We put the governors and everyone in the nation on notice we would handle the situation in this way. "I said where we were going in January and that's where we're going/' he said. The governor said the action would have no effect on the problems of low-level liquid nuclear wastes. Earlier the state banned storage of such material at the Barnwell plant, and Riley said there would be no change under the npw lippnsp The GAMECOCK is the student newspaper of the University of South Carolina end Is published three times a week on Mondeys.
