/ 4)La-OEc 5 N Mr. Marcus J. Galvan P.O. Box 774 Pharr, TX 78577
Dear Mr. Galvan:
I apologize for not providing this response to you sooner but, as you are aware, the Cornission and staff have been occupied with continued support of the efforts at Three Mile Island, Orders to other facilities, appearances before the President's Comission and various comittees of Congress that are investigating the Three Mile Island accident, and the realitmnant of our own resources and priorities to give 1:nmediata attention to the problems resulting from the accident.
I am enclosing two summaries of reports which contain information about the accident at Three Mile Island. The former Atomic Energy Commission (AEC) had a Congressional mandate to develop and promote nuclear energy. When the AEC was abolished in 1974, tha NRC was created by Congress for the sole purpose of regulating the comereirl production of nuclear energy. The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) is now responsible for the Federal Government's nuclear research and development activities. Consequently, questions about the future of this energy source should be directed to that agency.
I appreciate your concerns and assure you that every effort is being made to ensure the continued protection of the health and safety of the public, not only at the Three Mile Island Station, but also at all nuclear power plants.
Sincerely,
% =) C 'd ';y i
