Dear People,

As I understand things, I would be sorely remiss if I also did not call to your attention something about which you are apparently all too familiar: the Diablo Canyon Nuclear Power Plant in San Luis Obispo, California.

Writing solely as a concerned citizen, I would 13.3 to know what the' present situation presents to persons lib.c myself with a fair degree of concern about the very possible long-term dangers which would exist should DONPP be granted an operating permit. Putting vast economic considerations aside for the moment /since it always seems to be the one most important deciding factor in our society), is there any way that you might be able to refuse to grant this per-mit in light of various testimony and findings, among which the U.S. Geological Survey report, concerned citizens groups, etc?

I am wondering if you think that those of us who are in opposition are too terribly naive or idealistic in wishing to protect ourselves and future generations from the cum-ulative effects of the unpredictable Hosgri fault, nuclear waste products, and faulty equiptment. How can any of this be taken lightly. We are using the term " nuclear",are we not? I am wondering what your personal perspectives are.

Will we ever witness a time when ecomonic factors (Heaven forbid!) will take a back seat to the social and physical well-being of dedicated and caring individuals? Are we misguided fools or cruel victims of a demoralizingly invasive system? I strongly urge you to oppose a decision which would grant an operating permit to the Diablo Canyon Nuclear Power plant.

Respectfully, ,
