We have recently been advised by the Honorable William ."-

J. Guste, Jr., Attorney General for the State of Louisiana, ~'.~, 2 that the NRC inspection of the nuclear power plant under . . _

construction at St. Francisville scheduled for this month "--

has been cancelled as a result of budget restrictions.

While we appreciate and support the critical need for

reduced federal spending, we strongly feel that the safety I of nuclear power generation should not be jeopardized. We would appreciate any assistance which you can provide in this matter and we respectfully request a reconsideration of this decision. A copy of General Guste's letter to us, with attachments, is enclosed for your information and convenience. 7,_ -
