sis ", Administrative Law Judge ASLB, NRC Wa shington, D.C. ' Judge Smith:  !: . h-Y.),Y,bb Thank you for listening to our concerns, on March 1 at Rockford College, about the Byron Nuclear Power Station. The fol- 

      ;                        lowing is a written text of my remarks.                                                 .

6 I have three concerns to nresent this evening about the cronosed nuclear facility at Byron. The first of these is the standards you will use in judging the safety of radiation dosage to nlant 

     "                                         workers and area residents. Those standards are
  • still based in eart on very ero-nuclear Atomic .

Energy Commission studies of the atomic blasts ac '_ Hiroshima and Nagasaki. 

     ,                                                     Those were very noor studies. There were no radiation monitors in those ravaged Jaeanese cities.

So it is in nart comeuter guesses, of dosages those d. 

    '                                          injured eersons r eceived, that form the threshholds of dangen you will use to establish a safe workelace.

It is not enough. My second concern is nuclear wac. I don't . ~

  • think I'm alone in this concern. In regard to Byron, I fear that Commonwealth Edison, along with other
     =

nuclear eower olant-owning utilities, will succumb to the olans of Secretary of Energy James B. Edwards and the Reagan administration. It accears it is f their gosi to end the orohibition against commercial snent fuel being converted for wear;ons, and to re-cover the fuel from Byron and similar clants to aid f the government's multi-trillion dollar weacons build-un. I can only hone eart of your licensing' decision considers the morality of those wescens and of heln-ing give birth and nourishment to~ even more of them.

  • My third and last concern is less heard of.

It involves the danger of a kind of non-electrical nower you will give to Commonwealth Edison if this 

     ;                                        facility is allowed to onerate.
    +

It is one thing to have the most exclusive and excruciating security erecautions when the govern-ment hires someone to guard the cresident of the United States or to guard missle command centers. t 

      '                                       But it is another thing to create a utility sys-tem that is so notentially dangerous that it may need, really need, to nrobe deenly into the minds of its job annlicants. I strongly object to this j                                        erecedent -- of a erivate industry having this kind of newer over working men and women.
