Dear Mr. HendT.ie; ~---....- \

The licensing of Diablo yon must be speeded* up. There must be public hearings before Diablo is allowed to operate at low power.

As the only candiQ~te for* District 1 of the San Luis Obispo County Board of Supervisors, who opposed nuclear power, I received over 12,,000 votes.. I live just over 22 miles from Diablo Canyon, yet am

  • not included in any emergency evacuation plans, except to stay indoors-the same they told the people of st. George, Utah after being exposed to radiation from the bomb tests, The governments beli'r.ts estimates of damage due to an accident are that thousands of square miles can be contaminated permanently, but because I'm 22 miles away, I and my children have no plans in case of an accident.

Public hearings must be held before any licenses are issued. The unresolved issues of seismic safety, plant security and emergency planning demand that w.u.ch hearings be held.

Diablo C~yon will produce over 25 TONS" of Plutonium over its 30 year operation span. The u.s.G.S. figurea that wastes can be containe&

at best for 100 years, yet Plutonium must be contained for 240,000 years.

Diablo Canyon will only increase California's energy supply by 6 to 7 TENTHS of I~. Conservation is already making a greater contri-bution to our energy* needs. Alternative energy sources can make a greater contribtuion.

Please recognize your official and, more importantly, your person-al responsibility to avoid dumping toxic wastes of a mutagenic nature on the next 8,000 human generation just so we can increase our energy supply by 6 to 7 TENTHS of l~'*

Thank You!'
