BIEINt!Iitt EI11 M ElBElI1311H 1 c/o Mrs. Helen Lewandowski Box 777 East Quogue, NY 11942 On Tuesday, October 5, 1982, at a meeting of the East End Seniors Council held at Riverhead County Center, Riverhead, Long Island, New York, the enclosed resolution was unanimously adopted by officers and members present.

We urge you to give this resolution your utmost attention.

We would appreciate to hear from you on this important issue confronting the residents of Suffolk County.

Anxiously awaiting your reply, we remain, Sincerely, Resolution Committee:

Pres. Helen Lewandowski

. RESOLUTION OF THE UNITED EAST END SENIORS COUNCIL WHEREAS, LILCO has proven itself incapable of managing its company. Example: A loss of over two billion dollars in the Bokum uranium mine, the eighteen percent investment in the Nine Mile Two' Nuclear Plant on Lake Ontario, and excessive cost overruns in the construction of Shoreham. This needless loss of revenue has been, and continues to be paid by the ratepayers of the East End with the cooperation of the Public Service Commission, and

't WHEREAS, LILCO continues to irresponsibly ignore Suffolk County's right as protector of the people to conduct an in-spection of the Shoreham Nuclear Plant.

All this in the wake of a long history of construction defects at Shoreham as exposed by Newsday, and WHEREAS, the question of evacuation is af ter the fact -

e the fact being the initial planning and construction of the Shoreham Nuclear Plant.

Poor judgement on the part of the Nuclear Regulatory Commission and LILCO to build the Nuclear Plant on a narrow island becomes more and more a reality of life-threatening scope and should be terminated and abandoned.

The construction of Shoreham was paid for by the ratepayers.

It is one thing to gamble with ratepaye s' money - it is another when LILCO gambles with their lives, and KHEREAS, Congress has given the Nuclear Regulatory Com-mission the power to regulate Nuclear Plants. However, dis-closures at the Atomic Safety and Licensing Board Hearing on June Third in Riverhead proved to be alarming. Two N.R.C.

staff members testified that they had certified the monitoring system at Shoreham without conducting a separate examination of that system. They had relied exclusively on assurances as by the LILCO staff that the system met regulatory standards.

The testimony by the two N.R.C. engineers was poor and raised serious doubts and fears as to their ability to insure the safety standards at Shoreham, and WHEREAS, in 1981, Consolidated Ediscn's eight year old Indian Point reactor, along with sixteen other reactors around the country were found to be corroding faster than expected.

3 a

1 The problem involved rust in the steam generator tubes which carries hot radioactive water from the reactor's uranium core.

These existing problems combined with LILCO's long record of abominable management adds up to life-threatening situations for the citizenry of Long Island, and WHEREAS, in June, Assemblyman John L.

Behan conducted a poll survey of his constituents in the.First Assembly District.

Sixty seven percent of them answered "NO" to his question, "Are you in favor of the opening of the nuclear power facility at Shoreham even though utility rates are certain to be raised by LILC0".

BE IT RESOLVED, based on the above and other information, LILCO, because of its dep'lorable management record should not be trusted with nuclear power.

In the event of a mishap at Shoreham, the inherent danger to life, environment, and

~

property is inestimable.

The resort industries, agriculture, fishing; the cornerstone of our area's economic base would be placed in jeopardy.

The officers of the United East End Seniors Council, their members, and families, representing over 90,000 residents, demand the termination of the Shoreham Nuclear Facility.
