Hs.
Anna Harlowe Issues Coordinator Ecology'enter of Southern California P. 0.
Box 35473 Los Angeles, California 90035
Dear Hs. Harlowe:
This letter acknowledges the U. S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission's (NRC's) receipt of your Petition on behalf of the Ecology Center of Southern California dated Harch 8, 1989.
Your Petition requests the NRC to fix or close all nuclear power reactors designed by the General Electric Company (GE).
As bases for this request, you allege that (1) in 1972, a member of the NRC staff recommended that GE-designed reactors be banned in the United States; (2) in 1975, GE engineers generated the "Reed Report" that detailed dozens of safety and economic problems with GE-designed reactors and that recommended that GE stop selling those reactors; (3) in 1986, an NRC official admitted that 24 GE reactors with Hark I containments had a 90 percent chance of failure in a nuclear accident; (4) in 1987, an NRC task force confirmed that Har k I containments were virtually certain to fail in an accident; (5) according to NRC safety studies, Hark II reactors have many possible scenarios for early containment. fai lures; and (6) Hark II designs, on which the Reed Report focused, have dozens ef safety and economic problems and have suffered massive cost overruns during construction as a result of design problems.
The NRC will review the Petition in accordance with 10 CFR 2.206, and I will issue a formal decision with regard to it within a reasonable time.
A copy of the notice that is being filed with the Office of the Federal Register. for publication is enclosed for your information.
Sincerely,
Enclosure:
As stated omas E. Hurley, Director ffice of Nuclear Reactor Regulation
