.JO H N G EO RG E so,c .o.. ,,,, o, . r..c, October 30, 1979 Dr. Harold R. Denton Director of Nuclear Reactor Regulation U. S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission Washington, D. C. 20555

Dear Dr. Denton:

I hereby endorse the Request for Action submitted by Friends of the Earth to the Nuclear Regulatory Commission which requests permanent I revocation of the Regents of the University of California's Operating License under Docket No. 50-224.

Considering the Etcheverry Hall Reactor's outdated seismic design, its site in a densely populated urban area and the lack of adequate evacua-tion plans in case of a radiation accident, I submit that the Etcheverry Hall reactor poses an unacceptable threat to public healty and safety.

Accordingly, I give full support to the Request for Action to the N.R.C. filed by Friends of the Earth. I concur in the request that all re-actor activities under Docket No. 50-224 be halted, all radioactive materials and wastes be removed from the Etcheverry Hall site, and that the reactor operating license be remeved by the Nuclear Regulatory Commission.

I ask that the Nuclear Regulatory acknowledge its responsibility to the health and safety of the citizens of Berkeley by acting upon this Request for Action.

Virytrulyyours,

/j/
