 Introduced by Sen. PARKER -- read twice and ordered printed, and when

 AN ACT to amend the executive law, in relation to notice of emissions at
 nuclear power plants

 The People of the State of New York, represented in Senate and Assem-
 bly, do enact as follows:

 1 Section 1. The executive law is amended by adding a new section 29-f
 2 to read as follows:
 3 § 29-f. Emissions from nuclear power plants; purpose, notice required,
 4 reports and penalties. 1. The legislature finds that nuclear power
 5 plants routinely release radioactive materials to the environment. These
 6 radioactive materials are generally released in a controlled manner and
 7 within the limits established by the United States nuclear regulatory
 8 commission. Some of these releases have been unplanned, unscheduled and
 9 inadvertent. On occasion, they exceed technical specification limits.
 10 Most authorities agree that it should be assumed that radiation at any
 11 dose level has a finite risk. The legislature finds, therefore, that the
 12 public welfare will be better protected if the public is fully informed
 13 on any release of radioactive materials to the environment.
 14 2. For the purposes of this section, "operator" shall mean the corpo-
 15 ration, or other business entity, that owns or manages a nuclear power
 16 plant.
 17 3. The operator of any nuclear power plant in this state, or its
 18 designee, shall maintain a toll-free telephone number for the purpose of
 19 making information related to the events detailed in subdivision four of
 20 this section available to the public. Any such operator or designee
 21 shall also provide notice of the events detailed in subdivision four of
 22 this section to:
 23 (a) the public;
 24 (b) the commissioner of health;

 EXPLANATION--Matter in italics (underscored) is new; matter in brackets
 [ ] is old law to be omitted.

 S. 3800 2

 1 (c) the chief executive officer of the county in which the nuclear
 2 power plant is located; and
 3 (d) the chief executive officer of the city, town or village in which
 4 the nuclear power plant is located.
 5 4. The notice required in subdivision three of this section shall be
 6 for any of the following:
 7 (a) scheduled releases of radioactive materials at least twenty-four
 8 hours before the release is planned to occur;
 9 (b) unscheduled releases of radioactive materials, as soon as possi-
 10 ble, but not more t
