Hon. Peter F. Cohalan Suffolk County Executive Veterans Memorial Highway Hauppauge, New York 11788

Dear Mr. Cohalan:

Thank you for your letter of December 1, 1981 in which you ad-vise that the Suffolk County Planning Department is in the process of developing an evacuation plan for the South Fork of'Long Island in the event of a nuclear accident at the Shore-

. ham Nuclear Power Station.

Please be advised that this writer is absolutely appalled that the Federal Government permitted the Long Island Lighting Company to commence the construction of a nuclear power station before it was ascertained whether it will be feasible to evacuate the a

South Fork in case of a nuclear accident.

You are therefore urged to act immediately on the following':

1.

As" County Executive, to do everything in your power to halt the construction of the Shoreham Nuclear Power Station.

2.

To schedule a meeting with Senat6r~Moyninan, Senator

__r Alfonse D'Amato_and Congressman Carney together with

~

~~

the gove'rnment officials of the east end of Long Island so we may discuss the necessity of calling for a congressional investigation of the Nuclear Regulatory Agency for their gross negligence in this t

matter.

In closing, Mr. Cohalan, is it reasonable to think that there is a possibility that the Suffolk County Planning Department is e

SETTLED OUT EAST ON LONG ISLAND IN 1665 AND INCORPORATED IN 1832

4 Hon. Peter F. Cohalan 2.

December 11, 1981

~

being pressured to tailor the feasibility of an evacuation plan to accommodate the fact that the Shoreham Nuclear Power Station is 85% completed, especially when the Long Island Lighting Company 1s footing the bill for this plan?

Best wishes for the Holiday Season.

Sincerely, d.
