In response to the LLtter by C. Thomas SiddLL, Jr. , dLted July 31,1979, I would Like to make it ett.4 that I wish to be a full intervening party, ruher than 1 Limited inte) venor.

i I Live and work in Legisfaive visttict 11, which includes Monttose, ths

The ALLens Creek plant is being enginstred to be the

• dim itst" plant ever built, emitting 35,000 curies of radi1 tion per year, as compa.ted to 7,000 or less in sont tottier-6uilt plents. This is planned during normat operations. The South Texas plant is planned to emit only 1,500 per yttr. Further, in the twent of a melt-down, the WASH-740 gcuern-ntnt ttpart demonstta.tes that an arts the sitt of Pennsylvania would be tendered uninhabit.tbLt. This sort af occurrence would wipe out the entirety of Kouuan.

I did not fitt a petiLion for leave to intervent persuant to the Board notices of May 31 and September 11, 1978, because i felt then that I could not attt ALL the etittria in the Federal Register notices.

The resttictions on permissable contentions stre 20 resttictive as to new evidence tequirements and plant change requitements, that i ftLt then that I could not meet those guidelines. I haut now determined that 1 1m and should be 1 fatt intervening petty, and tequest your 1c-knowledgement of v ~
