Dear Ms. Streber:

Your letter to Mr. Curtis of the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission was forwarded to ce for response. I regret that this answer to your letter has been delayed. The accident and its consequences have created a substantial increase in the agency's workload, which has prevented us from responding to you as promptly as we would have liked to.

I am enclosing sumaries of two investigations into events at Three 1111e Island. The reports from which these sur.Tnaries were taken, their price and availability are listed below:

" Investigation into the March 23, 1979 Three Mile Island Accident by Office of Inspection and Enforcement" (NUREG-0C00), $10.00, and

" Population Dose and Health Impact of the Accident at the Three Mile Island Nuclear Station" (NUPEG-0558), $3.50.

Cocplete copies of both reports can be obtained by writing to:

Publication Sales Panager Document Management Branch U. S. Nuclear Regulatory Comission

'lashington, D. C.

20555 The Nuclear Regulatory Comission is a regulatory agency with the responsibility of regulating the commercial uses of nuclear energy. When our agency was created for this role, Congress made it clear that our mission was to be regulation only. Consequently, we do not have naterial to provide on the general aspects

' of nuclear energy. Infonnation about specific nuclear power concepts is readily available from textbooks and magazine articles in Public Libraries.

He are pleased to provide you with this information.

Sincerely,

Dear Mr. Curtis:

My associates and I are researching the use of nuclear power plants.

We would appreciate any help you could give.us, concerning the Three Mile Island accident.

Would you kindly inform us as to what might occur should the hydrogen bubble explode?

What is a meltdown?

In a nuclear power plant, what could go wrong?

Also, what is the danger to life and property?

Thank you in advance for responding to the above Sincerely, Cara L. Streber
