January 11, 1980 Mr. Burt Walke, President Burt's, Incorp rated 102 S. Eleventh Street Beaumont, Texas 77702
Dear Mr. Walker:
This is in reply to your letter of December 10, 1979, about licensing of of nuclear power plants.
The Nuclear Regulatory Commission is committed to prctect the public health and safety.
The Three Mile Island accident resulted in a need for chang.s in the approach to 5afety.
The Nuclear Regulatory Commission has found that actions recommen.ed by its own staff and by the President's Commission on the Accident at Three Mile Island in the areas of human factors, operational safety, emergency planning, nuclear power plant design and siting, health effects, and public information are necessary and feasible.
At this time we are preparing for review and approval by the Nuclear Regulatory Commission an Action Plan that will specify the precise actions to be taken.
This Action Plan will include new or improved safety objectives, detailed criteria for their implementation, and various implementation deadlines. Our goal is to have approved NRC requirements available to all utilities shortly after February 15, 1980.
It is recognized that there will be a significant effect on the availability of power generating capacity if those plants now in the final stages of construction do not receive operating licenses by the dates previously anticipated, and every effort is being made to avoid unnecessary delays.
Sincerely,
/
A.,

Dear Sir:
We feel that we need nuclear power plants to reduce our need for oil.
The Nuclear Regulatory Commission should speed up construction and get these plants operating, on a plant by plant basis now.,
