Dear Ms Higdon,

Nuclear power reactors should be protected against an attack by vehicular bombs.

l Size of the vehicle should be up to a 10,000 lb. GVW dual wheel commercial tmck capable of carrying at least 1000 lbs. of dynamite.

j i

Rationale: delivery vans and U-haul type moving vans are readily available.

l l

The plant guard force would be capable top providing:

Warning that a vehicle attack may be occurring (at least one minute).

Armed security force posted or patrolling inside the inner fence so that any intruding vehicle is met by two armed guards by the time it rams any part of the i

reactor or other important buildings.

l Plant security people should have guns that are equivalent firepower to the bad guys.

l l

l I think that we should be able to defend against at least 5 well trained and motivated bad guys that attack from at least two points.

Also, please consider a threat by helicopter. I think a helicopter is a viable threat.

l Thank you for letting me has e a voice in this meeting. I was appalled when I saw how long it took to find the man who crashed Three Mile Island.
