• It appears that the letter as originally typed referred to TMI II and that Petitioner endeavored to correct this refer-ence by erasure to read TMI I. This reading of the letter is confirmed by the fact that the only hearings scheduled for reopening a TMI unit are those scheduled for '+.e first unit. Docketing and Service has docketed the letter under the TMI-l docket.

to set forth Petitioner's interest in the proceeding or to set forth the specific aspect or aspects of the proceeding in which Petitioner wishes to intervene. In fact, most of the topics briefly enumerated under the heading " Nature of my petition" are outside the scope of the hearing.

Licensee would have no objection to a limited appearance by the Coalition for Nuclear Power Plant Postpone-ment pursuant to Section 2.715 of the Rules of Practice.
