y, Tn wham it may concerns y
It has carse to nur attention that there may be plans to re-epen the g undamaged nuclear reactor at Three Mile Island, Harrisburgh, Pa.

Because my wife and I have relatives (parents) and friends in that area (Highspire, Harrisburg, Steelton, 'ferk, etc.) we have a particular interest in the outcome of the decision.
We are firmly appnssed to Met Id re-opening that reactar! Because it has been. clearly sein that they were dishonest and unfair in the way they hadpled the ac:ident two ycars ago, it seems evident that that private firs has no ousiness runnhg a plant of such magnitude. Any corporation that pro es itself so socially irresponsibility has farfeited v
its right te make a fair profit in our system.
Further, deepite het Ed's apparent social disregard and lack of public acenuntability, I thinir, it to be a very dangerous proposition to have nuclear generation going on immeadiatly adjacent to the largest nuclear mess in the wnrld. Surely, the risky business of clean-up, stretching hnw Inng7, is a threat enough to the ecology and psychelegy of the local population. To have a " hot" nuclear reactor tn warry with.as well seems really asking for more trouble.
My wife and I have studied both sides of this question. We are totally against any nuclear power plants at this point in the development nf that enspl.ex tecnnnlogy. However, this particular point-should a enspan) as infamous at Met Ed be permitted to try their hand again, right next to a very delicate enviremental hazard - is one which we really must voice our apinian upen. Please, do not permit Met Ed tn re-open Unit I.
Please see ta it that adequate hearings are held so that aeasonable public debate can go on, nnt just in the Central Pennsylvania ages, but thrnugh-nut the Eastern l
Coast. Such hearings
- are aa essential element of the demncratic prncess that we all cherish. Juat re-opening the plant, without an intensive public discussinn wauld be a further step away from the sert af public accountability l
nuclear energy seems to call for.
Thank yau for your attention to this matter. We are b5th veiy concerned-abaut nur child-hnnd homes, our friends and relatives, land-ultimately-the directian nur land is heading. Please do ynur best to insure that justice is dane, and that entiremental stewardship is carried nut. For the Scripturer teach..."The Earth is the Lard's!"
