Dear Mr. and Mrs. Woodburn:
This is to respond to your postcard postmarked May 7,1979 expressing opposition to transporting of spent fuel from the Dresden plant to the Quad Cities plant.
The NRC currently has under review an application from Commonwealth Edison Company to allow storage of Dresden spent fuel at Quad Cities and visa versa.
The purpose t' this proposed actio: is to provide more flexibility in using available storage space at either of the two sites. Spent fuel has been transported in this manner for some 30 years. Risks to public health and safety associated with this activity are well known, and are very low.
A public hearing on the proposed shipment of spent fuel between the two sites will be held soon, probably early this Fall. The Office of the Secretary of the Commission has been requested to inform you cf the time and place prior to the hearing.
Sincerely, l
8 Thomas. Ippolito, Chief Operating Reactors Branch #3 Division of Operating Reactors 809 001 7908200 0 J p $
