January 5,1993 Mr. and Mrs. David Meyer 7131 SW Virginia Avenue Portland, Oregon 97219
Dear Mr. and Mrs. Heyer:
I am responding to your letter of December 11, 1992, to the Commissioners of the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC).
In your letter you requested "a public hearing" prior to the restart of Trojan and expressed concerns about the status of the steam generators at the Trojan Nuclear Plant.
As you may know, the staff held a meeting at the Trojan site in Rainier, Oregon, on December 1, 1992, to discuss the cause and repair of the steam generator primary-to-secondary tube leak that occurred on November 9, 1992.
This meeting was held to provide an opportunity for Portland General Electric -
(PGE) to inform the NRC staff on the issues raised in the Confirmatory Action Letter, dated November 13, 1992.
The meeting was attended by NRC headquarters personnel, NRC Region V personnel, pGE, and members of the media and general public.
The meeting also included a discussion of the proposed emergency technical specification change that was prepared by the licensee.
The licensee recently withdrew its request for the emergency technical-specification change and is conducting augmented steam generator tube inspections.
It is our understanding that the licensee is evaluating the steam generator tube inspection data and they are considering a range of possible actions that depend on the result of the data evaluation. The NRC staff is following the inspection process and any subsequent request for technical specification amendment closely.
I would advise you to consult Title 10, Code of Federal Rqpulations (10 CFR),
for an understanding of your rights and responsibilities regarding a hearing request; specifically refer to 10 CFR 50.91, and 10 CFR 2.714.
In general, you may file a petition for leave to intervene and request a hearing during the notice period on any licensing action proposed by the licensee, or you

Dear Commissioners:
Although a hearing on Trojan's safety has been proposed,We are asking for an adjudicatory hearing in which persons giving test-imony are under oath.
The HRC scientistn who recently came forward with warnings about the dangers of restarting Trojan must be
?
invited to Portland to testify.
Recognized spokespeople who oppose the restarting of Trojan must be allowed to attend and to ask questions in person rather than in written form, or the hearing will not dispel the fears that many of us have about this nuclear power plant.
Sincerely, Y
Ac r
