Pilgrim Audit

Dear Mr. Sylvia:

10/25/2006

Page 2 of 2 I know you met with Bob Schaaf of the US NRC and my colleague John Szeligowski of Earth Tech a few weeks ago and were alerted to the upcoming audit at Pilgrim NPS for its license renewal. I will be reviewing the socioeconomic components of the DEIS and my colleague, Susan Provenzano, will be examining Land Use. We would very much like to meet with you and any other town officials that are interested in the subject. I would assume a representative of your planning/public works department and your budget/finance office may want to attend. In addition, you may have some political officials that would like this opportunity to meet with us and an NRC official.

If Tuesday afternoon May 2 nd works for you, we have allocated that time for meetings in Plymouth. If that is a problem, perhaps the following Thursday morning would work? I expect to have a list of specific questions and/or information requests to you within the week.

I would appreciate a quick response regarding your availability to meet on Tuesday because we are trying to organize meetings with officials in surrounding communities during this same audit period. Your cooperation will be most appreciated.
