Hendrie Chairman Nuclear Regulatory Commission 1717 H Street, N.W.

Dear Mr. Hendrie:

I realize the Commission's deliberations over the status of nuclear power plants constructed by the Babcock and Wilcox Company involve difficult issues and tough decisions must be made.

As the Representative o f an area that was effected quite significantly by the Three Mile Island incident, I ask that my views be considered.

In light of the problems arising from the difficulties at the Three Mile Island plant and my own evaluation of public concern, I would like to offer my opinion that the Commission order all operating Babcock and Wilcox designed nuclear facilities to be shut down pending appropriate design cor-rections.

Babcock and Wilcox nuclear facilities which are not presently in operation should remain shut down until necessary corrective action is completed.

Thank you.
