Dear Mr. and Mrs. Youmans:
This is to respond to your postcard postmarked May 15, 1979 expressing opposition to transporting of spent fuel from th t resden 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 of this proposed action 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 of the time and place prior to the hearing.
Sincerely, r
omas Y.'Ippolito, Chief Operating Reactors Branch #3 Division of Operating Reactors 790817ccet
