Dear Mr. P.eed:
I have been asked to respond to your letter of August E,1979 tc C!.airnan hendrie.
In your letter, you stated that you were " entirely baffled by the appercnt refusal of the U.S. L'uclear Regulatory Commission to have extensively reviewed the reports by hundreds of Three File Island area residents who, durine Marct. 20-31, 1979 prir.arily, and at tires subsequent, experierced:
(a) netallic taste in their mouth; (b) retallic or iodine-like oder in the air; (c) irritated and watery eyes; (d) modcrate or severe respiratory infiatr.ation; (e) gastro-intestinal dysfunction and diarrhea; (f) disruptien of the censtrual cycle in females; (g) skin rashes (some acrearine as radiation burns); (h) sharp, abnonnal pains in joints *. k'e are not aware of larce ner.bers of people reporting formally or inforr. ally pFysiological reacticns te the accident. The only hnowledge that we have of larce nunbers of pecple experiencinc physiological reactions to the accident comes through Mr. Arncid of ParaScience International (Enclosure 1). In his letter, Mr. Arnold claims that " hundreds of persons exr-erienced physiological discomfort or ill-health as the result of radionuclices released frau TEI-2 on and after March 28, 1970.* f:r. Arncic rade siciler claims before the President's Commission on the Accident at Three Mile Island (May 18,1979). In response to Mr. Arnold's allegetiens, the NP.C's Three Mile Island Special Inquiry Group has offered to meet with
- Mr. Arnold to discuss his claim.*

of the Three Mile Island Huclear Power Plant. Technical staff rae-bers of the Nuclear Regulatory Co:nission (HRC), the Department cf Health, Education and Welfare (HEk') and the Envirorcental Protection Agency (EPA),
who constituted an Ad Hot Dose Assessnent Group, prepared the report.
The report concludes that the offsite doses associated with the accident during the period March 2E to April 7,1979, represents cir.ical risks of
/
additional health effects to the offsite population. The prcjected number of additional fatal cancers due to the accident that could occur over the recaining lifetime of the population within 50 miles is less than one.
This report, of course, did not address the imriediate physiological reactions addressed in your letter. However, we have consulted with Dr. Marvin Goldman, a medical consultant for NRC and he has stated that at the radiation dose rates involved, as described in the report, none of the effects identified in itets (a) thru (h) above can be expected to be caused by radiation.
If we can be of further assistance to you, please do not hesitate to -
write us.
Sincerely, yp,- - _ . . ..

Dear Fr. Eeniries e As one who lives 16 miles north-northwest of Three Mile Island (in the direction of the nost intense rsdioactive plume novement following the recent accident there) and who har'been challenging for seve:21 years Metro-politan Edison's ability to oper:te without serious incident their nuclear facility, we have to date refrained from addressing you on the most recent ,
(and serious) accident at TF2'-2 because we have seen no indicatics that our concerns would be received any differently than in the damnable and uncon-scionable way the Atomic Safety and Licensing Icard responded to the public '
(ourself included) in the licensing process for THI-2 in 1977 - whe: tin Chairman Edward Luton told us (and other, members of the co== unity-at-large) that our cc ments would not be entered 'a's part of the permanent record' (Docket No. 50-320) and, hence, were irrelevant to the decision-making N process of the NRC.
However, in reviewing the transcript of the NRC Co::issioners' July 24 closed-door meeting ostensibly to discuss personnel natters that turned into arguments f ar and against the introduction of mental health effects among l the hundreds-o'f-thousands who were subjected to Tt2-2's novel and reprehen-sible form of terrorism as part of the decision to return T?2-1 to critical-ity, we are finally moved to respond.
First, you who have refused to attend a public. meeting with'Newberrytown citizens in the TMI five-mile radius area because such would prejudice your ,
decision regading Three Mile Islandi- a position we can only interpret as an unwavering pro-nuclear ~ commitment that,cannot take into account the feel-I ings and lives of those peopic most intimately affected by America's worst co.wercial reactor accident to date - should remove yourself from any decision-saking responsibility in the matter of Three Mile Island, (Afterall, j a trustworthy judge removes himself from'a case towards which he has a bias or corflict-of-interest. ) This policy should be adhered to by each NRC l
Commissioner who continues to isolate-hinself from direct personal contact l vith the people of this area; afterall, one's eyes can speak where words fail. -
l
'You can retain this disregard of southcentral Pennsylvanians' concerns l and fears about TKI only so long as you maintain your isolation from such personal interchange. We suggest you speak with Concissioner Cilinsky, who to his credit lns willing to face the people in Middletown on June 29: he ,
learned very quickly that there arep peoule oft there beyond the sanctified walls of the NRO's Washington office, not faceless numbers in some Peactor l

. House or REPRESENTNTIVES Hammissvec. PA. 1712o Rcp SickwtN R. REED y August 8, 1979 Honorable Joseph M. Hendrie, Chairman U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission Washington, District of Columbia
Dear Chairman Hen.drie,
I am entirely baffled by the apparent refusal of the U.S.
Nuclear Regulatory Commission to have extensively reviewed the reports by hundreds of Three Mile Island area residents who, during March 28-31, 1979 primarily, and at times subsecuent, experienced:
(a) metallic taste in their mouth (b) metallic or Iodine-like odor in the air (c) irritated and watery eyes (d) moderate or severe respiratory inflammation (e) gastro-intestinal dysfunction and diarrhea (f) disruption of the menstral cycle in females (g) skin rashes (some appearing'as radiation burns)
(h) sharp, abnormal pains in joints.
The U.S. Public Health Service and Pennsylvania State Dept.
of Health are jointly conducting a survey of TMI area residents to record medical histories so that the full health consequences of TMI' radiation releases in the next 25 years will be documunted.
That is all fine and should be done. But why is there a complete dismissal by the NRC of any immediate indications of exposure to levels of radiation higher.than what were immediately thought the first dates of the accident? Psychosomatically induced ailments are possible with some, but not with hundreds or even more persons and I suggest this matter has been conveniently laid aside.
~
The NRC is charged with ascertaining full details about the TMI accident. You are further charged with knowing the full effects of even low level radiation on populations near to nuclear reactors.
Failure to pursue the aforementioned reports from TMI area residents is a dismal failure of your most important safety responsibilities to the tens of millions of people living near reactors, not to men-tion the people around TMI.

Ho5orable Joseph M. Hendrie August E, 1979 I therefore recommend that all available expertise be applied to ascertaining <the cause of these physical ailments associated with the TMI accident and a completely accurate public disclosure made of its cause and the level of radiation or contamination that people may have been exposed to. The inability of both Metropolitan Edison and the NRC to know even to this day (or at least to have disclosed if you actually do know) the levels of exposure is in itself a major, most serious failing of pre-TMI accident obligations by both parties. And if it is determined that the exact cause of these physical ailments cannot be determined due to the lack of adequate research on the subject pre-TMI, then the public should know the extent to which we indeed are unprepared to deal with nuclear plant emissions.
