Dear Mr. Ahearne:
r Enclosed-is copy of-testimony which I have submitted to the United S'tates Senate Appropriations Committee and Energy and Water Resources Subcommittee. My original intention was to release the stateinent to the press the-day af ter the' scheduled h aring"in Harrisburg this past Thursday, January 21, 1982.
However, as you ar'e

awar.e, that meeting' was rescheduled for February 2 due to inclement weather.and I decided _to release my statement as scheduled,due to the merits of the issue.
It ib n' t' my intent to arbitrarily.or capriciously enter the public _d'ebate on o
this issue.
However, my concerns,are real 'and I'believe reflect the prevalent r
attitude among the people of Dauphin-Cou'nt'y., It is in' this spirit thKt I write to you'tEday.~~

I suggest that clean-up be financed through a continuation of the deferred energy surcharge.which would provide ov_er S35 million. in continuing revenues as a trigger to receive the 525 million in-Pha'se II.
Ratep'ayers are already accustoned to this'surch'arge and, while a continuation o5

this payment may be viewed as a -financial _ hardship, the consequence's of a premature rostart and subsequent failure of, Unit 1 would undoubtedly produce a much more esvere financial handicap to both the ratepayers and GPU Nuclear.
Of course, by keeping restart and' clean-up separate issues, we are all ensuring maximum levels of safety for the public.
I thank you for your time and consideration in this matter and would welcome the opportunity to personally discuss the proposal I have suggested herein.
Should you feel that such a meeting would be productive, please do not hesitate to call m2.
My office telephone number is 255-2740. My home number is 238-1106.

Dear Chairman Palladino:
Enclosed is copy of testimony which I have submitted to the United States Senate Appropriations Committee and Energy and Water Resources Subcommittee. My original intention,was to release the statement to the press the day after the scheduled h:aring in Harrisburg this past Thursday, January 21, 1982.
However, as you are cware, that meeting was rescheduled for February 2 due to inclement weather and I decided to release my statement as scheduled due to the merits of the issue.
It is not my intent to arbitrarily or capriciously enter the public debate on this issue.
However, my concerns are real and I believe reflect the prevalent attitude among the people of Dauphin County.
It is in this spirit that I write to you today.
I suggest that clean-up be financed through a continuation of the deferred energy gurcharge which would provide over S35 million in continuing revenues as a trigger to receive the S25 million in Phase II.
Ratepayers are already accustomed to this surcharge and, while a continuation of this payment may be viewed, as a financial hardship, the consequenceis of a, premature restart'and subsequent failure of Unit 1 would undoubtedly produce a much more esvere financial handicap to both the ratepayers and GPU Nuclear.
Of course, by keeping restart and clean-up separate issues, we are all ensuring maximum levels of safety for the public.
I thank you for your time and consideration in this matter and would welcome the opportunity to personally discuss the proposal I have suggested herein.
Should you feel that such a meeting would be productive, please do not hesitate to call My office telephone number is 255-2740. My home number is 238-1106.
