Dear Mr. Smith:

/%

g It is my understanding you will hold a special meeting of the o

Atomic Safety and Licensing Board on March 5, 1981 at 7:00 p.m.

at the William Penn Museum.

Unfortunately, I can not attend that meeting, but I would like you to know of my view regarding TMI's Unit 1.

m*

I am very much in favor of restarting Unit 1, and although I believe it is beyond the scope of your meeting, I am also in favor of cleaning Unit 2 and getting it back into operation.

e It is my belief that Met Ed as well as.the entire atomic electric utilities community has learned many valuable lessons from the 3

accident at TMI; as result of these lessons I believe that atomic o,

facilities will be operated with a much greater awareness of the need for improved safety conscience.

I believe that atomic power is basically safe, clean, and very necessary to our national 3

best interest.

Additionally, I know that the absence of TMI as s

a operating entity is costing Lebanon Packaging Corporation (as a

well as all Met Ed customers) substantial additional expenses which we can not recapture because of the competitive nature of our business.

In other words, our competitors are not getting E

their energy from Met Ed, therefore, they do not have the same g

up-charges we have.

m l

[

Please let me take this opportunity to thank you for reading this letter, and we hope to have your sympathetic understanding of our position.

We respectfully request that Unit 1 be restarted at a

I the earliest possible time.

Very truly yours, G
