.triting because I 'ricw ; cu have called a ccnfertnc,e concer;.Ing the ce c.ent werk at .lolf Creek ::uclear Generating Staticn near Eurlin-ten,1:ansas.

I have worked as a reycrter for several years and nave covered nuch of the =.

'.'olf Creek Censtmetion problems and other things surrcunding its ccnstruction .

'.fnen I began questiening the cuality of the concrete, q job was threatened.

A T.3E spokesman recently told te that i.erhaps he did give the in#cr atien to the ;en, whc used it to try to have ce rer.cVed fron my job. I feel, if the quality cf work and caterials is satisfactory, that it would not have been neces-sary to threaten ny job.

'.icrkers do talk to ne because they know I will try to do sc ething about the poor werkmanship and caterial because I as concerned about nuclear power. Eusiness-nen around thetown adnit the: know nothing abcut thehacards involved in nuclear power.

Because cf the reports to te abcut use of Erotten iren" and "hcneyceninb i

of cement," I request that ; cu stop work at~iolf Craek Generating Station. If Daniels :nternational can not oversee the werk to prevent this t; pe of substanda-d work, then heaven hele us all.

True, there aren't many of us in Coffey County, but we like it here and would like to stay. Ecsides, it is very cuestionable as to whether 'dolf Creek is needed or not. Certainly, we 1:1ct it is not needed in Kansas. Can you ask us to give up our be tiful fartland fcr scnething that is not necessary, and vill be even more dangerous because of substandard work .snship and material. .-

just 'Tnere nuclear power is concerned, we should not allow sc:gthing to be/" good en; ugh." ,

Feople in the Burlington area hear about the poor quality ,

of work, and they are beconing more and core concerned. Tne poor cuality cf work is no secret in our area-your decision will show just now protective you are of '

p the citicens of the United States-which is what I see as your job-protecting the public, not proliferating nuclear power. Sincerely, .
