Mr. Ivan Selin
-l Chairman, Nuclear Regulatory Commission 11555 Rockville Pike i
Rockville, Maryland 20852 '
Dear Mr. Selin:
With the restart of the Indian Point 3 nuclear power plant in Westchester County, New York, I would like to express in the strongest possible terms my concern that every step be taken to ensure the safety of this facility's continued operation.
j As you know, equipment and management problems forced the shutdown of the Indian Point 3 facility in 1993. Since that time, the New York Power Authority has revamped the management tum at the facility and implemented operational improvements to correct the deficiencies which prompted the shutdown. Based on these improvements, the Nuclear Regulatory Commission has approved the Power Authority's plan to restart the facility.
Nuclear energy can play an important role in satisfying our energy needs, but not at the expense of public safety. I have heard from a number of my constituents expressing concerns over the restart of Indian Point 3. Their concerns underscore the primary view that the operational reforms made at the facility must place the highest priority on safety. Anything less is clearly unacceptable.
The Nuclear Regulatory Commission must carefully oversee and monitor the restart of Indian Point 3, a,nd I would like to be kept informed on the facility's progress.
Thank you for your attention in this matter. If I can provide you with additional information on this matter, please do not hesitate to contact me.
