Dffice of General Counsel 1/25 I Street, N.W.

Washington, D.C.

20472 In the Matter of Houston Lighting and Power Company (Allens Creek Nuclear Generating Station, Unit 1)

Docket No. 50-466

Dear Mr. Cosgrove:

Pursuant to our conversation today, enclosed is a copy of the emergency planning contention that has been admitted in the Allens Creek proceeding.

As can be seen by looking at the contention, certain sections of the contention have not been admitted by the Licensing Board (Sections I, II, III(d), V (sentence dealing with possible radioactive contamination of Brazos River water), and VI). The Allens Creek site is' located approximately 45 miles west of downtown Houston between the towns of Sealy and Wallis.

A site location map is also enclosed.

Hearings on this contention have not been scheduled as of tnis date.

The llRC Staff expects that this issue will be scheduled in early Fall 1981.

I will keep you informed on this matter.

If you have any questions, I can be reached at 492-7417.

Sincerely, o

Sg( "
