hrW3 OF bu9STAN04R0 COOLANT SAFETY SYSTEMS AT THE TROJAN NjCL EAR ?OWER PLANT FURTHER DEMOLISHES PORTLAND GENERAL ELECTR IC CnMP ANY' S CONT ENT ION THAT IT CAN OPE:tATF TROJAN SAF E LY. IT IS SAO ENOUGH THAT TROJAN FUNC T I O N:.0

.FOR OVER TWO YEARS WITH A CONTROL RUILDING THAT REMAINS INSUFFICIENT TO Mr.ET.FEORRAL EARTwGUAME STANDARDS.

NOW WE HAVE JUST LEARNED THAT,'!N ADOITION, SAFETY SYSTEMS OESIGNFO TO PROTECT. AGAINST THE MOST SERIOUS POSSI9LE NUCLEAR ACCIDENTS AT TROJAN 00 NOT MEET THE FEDERAL STANDAR03.

'P GE MUST NOT 9E ALLOWFO TO OPERATE THIS NUCLE AR PLANT. THE D EFECTIVr OOOLANT PIPF SYSTEM AFFECTS NOT ONLY THE NUCLEAR R EACTOR BUT ALSA TFE SPENT FUEL' POOL STORAGI-AREA FO.'t NUCLEAR

W. INSIST THAT THE GOVERNMENT FULFILL ITS RESPONS!alLITIES BY. ORDER ING AN INDEPrNOENT ANO COMPLETE INVESTIGATION OF T90JAN'S S AFETY SYSTEMS AND A9YSMAL GUALITY CONTROL.
