A number of colleges in recent weeks have said they're worried governmental footdragging could leave them holding a radioactive bag by the end of the year. Rising costs and the lack of a place in which to dump the low-level radioactive waste they opnpratp in pamnnc rpcparrh paiiIH moon cnma ^vnviMbv HI vMinpuu IVJVM1VII vvuiu uivnii ouuiv colleges will have to halt their nuclear research after January 1, 1986, some college officials fear. "We don't want to shut down research," said Charles Bockelman, Yale's deputy provost, "but it's a threat." ABOUT 40 CAMPUSES with some sort of nuclear engineering, nuclear ' medicine or licensed nuclear research are facing the same threat. The number of students and faculty members affected may be much larger. Stanford, for example, has some 300 nuclear lab experiments going on at any one time, the Stanford News Service estimates. Even some biology and chemistry classes that use and need to dispose of some low-level radioactive isotapes could be threatened. The reason is a new law meant to force states and regions to set up their own radioactive waste dumping grounds, and to stop shipping all their wastes to Nevada, Washington and South f^ jolina, which host the nation/Anlu larnr* nYit/o iwacto /4ni-r??%o ?w?5v IiuI\v ?uoiv uuiupa, BUT IF testates and Congress don't statt? moving mc^ quickly toward creating nevF dump sites, colleges conducting nuclear und gives nriecocks > spring orea Ik 1 j | - SP^^B | ' ; Sf *" ?

"Universities don't have large areas to store waste like nuclear power plants do," said Sue J f? ~ ? '- - vjagiici i 9)juM;swuiiiail IU1 IIIC l^UCICar Regulatory Commission (NRC). "They want to get rid of it as quickly as possible." But no one has actually established new dumps sites for the schools. State legislators have yet to find new radioactive waste sites for the universities of Arizona and West Virginia, despite intense lobbying from educators there. THERE'S NO place where people won't be upset by (having a dump next door). Radioactive waste is the most unwelcome neighbor," Bockelman understates. In Texas, where the University of Texas system produces 70 percent of the state's lowlevel radioactive waste, a two-year legislative study has just narrowed the site location to South Texas. Nationwide, nuclear power plants generate about 60 percent of the waste. College and government labs and industry produce the rest of it, Gagner says. If the three current dumps in Beatty, Nev., \17 ?

"Radioactivity is a frightening concept to people." There's a lot with which to scare people. Yale produces 500 30-gallon drums of liquid radioactive waste and 750 drums of dry waste per year, Bockelman said, largely through the medical school and the biological science department. "Disposal has been a problem since the first radioactive experiments began at Yale 20 years ago," Bockelman said. "It's big business," said William Properzin. thr I Jnivrrsitv of Plr?riHa'c HirA^f?r nf vironmental health and science. "Any research institute has to deal with this. When a researcher designs an experiment, the cost of disposal has to be written into the proposal." WHILE THE Nuclear Regulatory Commission regulates most campus nuclear research, it leaves disposing of the resultant waste ? and the payment for it ? up to the schools, Gagner explained. The NRC also grants licenses to campuses, said Donald Turner, West Virginia University's radiation health technician. "The licenses specify disposition of radioactive waste, and we're sent a list of co^nanies that handle the waste, said.
