STATEMENT OF JOHN N. McCAMISH, JR.
Distinguished judges of the Atomic Safety and Licensing Board:
I am John N. McCamish, Jr., a practicing San Antonio attorney-at-law.
My work has placed me in close contact with the energy industry, and from that association, I have concluded that we have at home the capability, the technology, the wherewithal to solve our nation's energy problems.
Yet because of a stifling regulatory climate, we
~
must go overseas for oil and other fuels to meet our domestic requirements.
Right here in our own state of Texas, we have competent electric utilities which have provided reliable service at reasonable cost.
Yet they, too, have been handi, capped in their attempts to employ nuclear energy in serving the energy needs of this vast and rapidly developing region.
As l
the National Academy of Sciences point out in its exhaustive study, " Energy in Transition," nuclear energy and coal must be utilized in significant quantities if our country is to l
once again gain its independence in energy matters.
With respect tc the South Texas Project nuclear power l
plant, I believe it is imperative that the Nuclear
' Regulatory Commission and its Atomic Safety and Licensing l
Board move expediticusly in the operating license procedure.
The utilities constructing the STP have demonstrated their ability to serve the public interest.
I say let us get on
[
with letting them complete the Project to the benefit of tillions of South Texas residents.
