Je need, immediately, ime and distance parameters for emergency :lan-ning. Three .il: Is12nd axperience nas sneun that we who are recpcn-cible for protection gf the lives of many citizens cannot be s atisfiad with assurances tnat' acci ents mere serious tnan tha esign-basis acciden arenctcrrfble.

Icasibility of evacuati n is dependent on time and dstance : nstraints.

How long wculc we have, in a most sericus accident, :: evacuate our pc;ulati,ns of varicus distance areas? Hcw far mu_t we evacuate th:m, and aav. long must they be restrainec from returning to tne c:ntaminated area:-

r1 ease previde assessments s.ased en various scenaries cf sind and weather, in the geographic c:nditicns of San Gnofre area, in ne event of most sericus acticents, whether or not you c:nsider then crecible.

This informati:n is necersary for zur creati n of a feasible evacuation plan, as is information of the pcssible nuclides and raciati:n types wnicn might be released < and information of effective menaures to prc4 tect pecple f rom them. La new have cnly a response plan which c etails the assignments of the manpcwer and equipment availabla to us.

Also, I refer to At:mic Licensing Anneals Eccrd deciti:n 2d 3 3 nEC 957 wnien affir.cd the interveners' c:ntention tha: there were not adequata readways for timely evacuati:n, but di nct censider the def::t sericus enough to deny the constructi:n per;it, nc:ing, "other roads through Camo Pendle::n are available; if widenec, prcperly surfucad anc cisarly m:rked, they c:uld be used for evacuation purposes."

Uncer your current regulations do ycu require the utility :maanias tc pecvide suc" roadways before licensing of Units II and III' If not, acw :o s eu propcce that we provide them? .ny oc you allow 5a7 Cncfre Uni: ! to operate inspite of the 5:ard de icien?

1975 testimony before zur Calif:rnia Statt En rgy C:mmi si_n indicated that fadaral stucies cf " plume behavior" were expected :: be : mpleted in several ysars. nave they been c =ple ::? ;hcra may we have acce:s
