Dear Ms. Connally:
I am writing in response to your letter to Zbigniew K. Brzezinski regarding the safety of nuclear power plants. I regret that this answer to your latter has been delayed. The accident and its consequences have created a substan-tial increase in the agency's workload, which has prevented me from responding to ycu as promptly as I would have liked to.
Several NRC staff task forces have been organized to identify and evaluate safety concerns, which originated from the Three Mile Island accident, that merit consideration in the licensing actions for presently operating reactors as well as those for whi.h operating licenses and construction permits are pending.
The task forces' reviews have d2 closed a number of actions in the areas of design and analysis and plant operatians that will be required in the short term to provide substantial additional protection of the public health and safety. All nuclear power plants in operation or under construction will be affected to varying degrees by the specific recommendations.
We appreciate your concern 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 Nuclear Station, but at all other nuclear power plants as well.
Sincerely, Harold R. Denton, Director Office of Nuclea'r Recctor Regulation
