Dear Chair Mcfarlane:

On Friday, December 14th, 2012, the Los Angeles City Council approved a motion requesting that the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) make no decision about whether it is safe to re-start either of the San Onofre Nuclear Generating Station reactor units, and that the Atomic Safety and Licensing Board (ASLB) make no decision regarding whether the NRC's Confirmatory Action Letter constitutes a de facto license amendment, until the City of Los Angeles has had the opportunity to provide input.

Citing interests in the safety of workers and Southern California residents, and in the protection of the Port of Los Angeles, Interstate 5, and the environment, Councilmembers expressed the desire to have the Council's Energy and Environment Committee study and report upon impending NRC and ASLB decisions regarding San Onofre. Furthermore, the Committee would likely benefit from information the NRC could present it regarding Southern California Edison's restart plans for San Onofre.

We recognize the authority of the NRC and the ASLB in these matters and respectfully request the opportunity to bring the Council up to speed on Edison's plans and allow for the City to provide comment on a timely basis.

If you have any questions, please contact Martin Schlageter in Councilmember Huizar's office atý (213) 473-7014, martin.schlageter@lacity.org.

Respectfully submitted, Councilmember Pa Koretz, Member
