Docket flos. 50-254 and 50-265 Ms. Jasmin Cori fis. Gabrielle Rebacas 311 E. 10th Street Davenport, Iowa 52803

Dear Ms. Cori and Ms. Rebacas:

This is in response to your letter of August 4,1979, opposing trans-porting of spent fuel from the Dresden plant to the Quad Cities plant in Cordova, Illinois.

The f1RC currently has under review an application from Commonwealth Edison Company to allow the storage of Dresden sperit 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 by truck and by rail for some 30 years.

Risks to public health and safety associated with this ac+.ivity are known to be very low.

A public hearing on the proposed shipment of spent fuel between the two sites will be held probably this Fall. This Office of the Secretary of the Commission has been requested to inform you of the time and place prior to the hearing.

Sincerely, o

Thoma
