Dear Chair Palladino,

As a California State Assemblyman and concerned citizen I have been following the developments at the Diablo Canyon Nuclear Power Plant.

I understand that in the last two years 7,500 repairs have been made.

These were deemed necessary after the Nuclear Regulatory Commission had issued Diablo Canyon's original low-power test license.

I would ask that after such an extensive repair period that you not hold re-licensing hearings until all the required safety hearings and design reviews have been completed.

To proceed with re-licensing hearings before these processes have been finished does not seem to be proper or in the public interest.

Reasonable assurances of safety by PG&E or consultants are no substitute for full safety and design reviews.

If safety and design reviews will not begin until late October, then the re-licensing hearing on September 21st should be postponed.

Public concern about this facility has been demonstrated and I would hope you would take every precaution to include all relevant information before deciding to re-license Diablo Canyon.

Delaying the hearing is an important and necessay step if the Nuclear Regulatory Commission is planning to proceed in the most thoughtful and wise manner.

This PG&E project has a well-kncwn record for the discovery of crucial information after important decisions by the NRC were made, the Hosgri earthquake fault and the mirror-image problem are just two examples.

Before the decision to re-license is 8309200238 830909

made, let all the apropriate information be considered first.

This will indicate to me and others that the safety of California residents is uppermost in your minds.

Sincerely,
