Citi.::C July 16, 1982 Mr. Nunzio Palladino Chairman U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission Washington, D.C.
70555
Dear Mr. Palladino:
I understand that the Department of Energy has applied to the Nuclear Regulatory Commission to conduct site preparations for the Clinch River Breeder Reactor.
It is my contention that this project is unneeded, outmoded and unjustifiable.
As you may know, I was among the ninety-one House Members who signed a letter to President Reagan requesting that federal fuhding be withdrawn for the Clinch River Breeder Reactor.
I have little doubt that support for this project in the House is as scant as the tenable arguments in favor of this project.
The assumptions that launched the plan to construct a demonstration breeder reactor have proven inaccurate.
Consequently, I see no reason to pursue this unworthy pork barrel project.
It is my hope that the NRC will reject the Department of Energy request and help our taxpayers save two and one half billion dollars.
Thank you very much for your consideration.
With all good wishes, Yours sincerely,
,J kehe MILLICENT FENWICK Member of Congress MF:mn
