UNITED STATES NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION
~
{
E WASHINGTON, D. C. 20555
,o December 7, 1979, CHAIRMAN The Honorable Robert Morgan United States Senator Washington, D.C.
20510
Dear Senator Morgan:
The November 8,1979 letter to me written on behalf of yourself, Senator Helms, Congressman Fountain and Congressman Jones expressed concern about delays in licensing of the second nuclear unit at the North Anna facility in Louisa 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 TMI-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, 7
\\
