NRC-2013-0070-DRAFT-0103 Comment on FR Doc # 2013-08888 3 Submitter Information Name: Arthur Strauss, MD IC----Address: 8 Blanchard Irvine, CA, 92603 General Comment I'm a pediatrician who is concerned about the haphazard regard for safety at San Onofre, owned by SC Edision.From lack of safeguards against terrorist attack to leaks from poor equipment maintenance, etc -SCE has lost the public trust. Radiation risk to neighboring towns, especially for children who live in the area, outweighs the need for power production from such an outmoded faciility.

I write to ask that the NRC reject Southern California Edison's narrow license amendment request and no significant hazard consideration.

These requests from Edison would pave the way to restart before a full adjudicated license amendment hearing with testimony from independent experts was held. This license amendment seeks to remove the critical licensing issues from the context in which it is requested

-to pave the way for restarting a severely damaged reactor without understanding the cause and without fixing the problems.It further fails to address significant safety and licensing issues, such as impacts on vital safety systems. Given the extensive damage at both reactors and tremendous public concern, Southern California Edison should not be attempting fast-track a restart decision.

The health and safety of Southern Californians must come first.SUNSI Review Complete Template = ADM -013 E-RIDS= ADM-03 Add= B. Benney (bjb)https://www.fdms.gov/fdms-web-agency/component/contentstreamer?object~d=09000064812e2359&for...
