Dear Mr. Ahearne,

C Cf As a supporter of nuclear power, an 'dne wn

. 19 s

.; I and II are being persecuted withcut justificati 1., I wou to express my views.

/

The hearings of Unit I (which I have at

'. (d)W s be of some value in assessing the management of Unit I and the plants safety regulations.

Also the hearings may help te assure some " lay-people" who were, er are now, frightened of nuclear power.

However, as a resident living with-in twenty miles of TMI, and an advocate of nuclear power, I =ust say, "enough is enough".

For these reasons:

1.

there was no 9.ccident at Unit I 2.

other 3&W plants nationwide are operating withcut benefit of hearings (o.k., perhaps they were required to install

@ g g ',

some new procedures and/or safety equipment.) That's quite

@A different from what has been required of TMI.

I consider the "repetative implications" of the lack of knowledge of the Met. Ed. staff unjust.

Who created the " stress, near panic and fear"?

Not Met. Ed. peccle, the NRC did a great job in that area.

Then proceeded to try and capltali::e on " false-hood" and look like heroes, by way of "Mr. Harold Denton's" ?

Sor~/, my opinion is that " covering-up" at somecne else's expense is cruel and foolish.

I would rather the NRC spent time (which in-directly, being a tax-payer I pay your salary, thus for your time) getting "back to business".

Your job is to regulate nuclear pr.:nts, and may-be if you do that cor-ectly we will all be better off.

As it is, the NRC has impeded the nuclear indus enough-stopbeforeyouputtheUnitedStatesbacksofarwe'llnevercate}.,
