December 7, 1979 CHAIRMAN The Honorable L. H. Fountain United States House of Representatives Washington, D.C.
20510
Dear Congressman Fountain:
The November 8,1979 letter to me written on behalf of yourself, Senators Helms and Morgan, and Congressman Jones expressed concern about delays in licensing of the second nuclear unit at the North Anna facility in Louis;:
County, Virginia.
The Commission currently has before it for consideration a policy statement setting forth the course it intends to follow in adapting its licensing pro-cess to include implementation of recommendations of investigations of the Three Mile Island accident.
I expect that, as finally issued, this policy statement will address the question of resumption of licensing of completed or nearly completed plants such as North Anna II, including requests to allow pre-operational testing in advance of implementing THI-related recommendations.
As the Commission is giving this matter the highest priority, this statement should be promulgated shortly.
You will be provided a copy promptly.
Sincerely,
\\
Jose M. Hendrie 1749 091 8 001150 Mf
