CHILK SECRETARY OF THE COMMISSION U.S.
NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION 1717 H STREET, N.W.
WASHINGTON, D.C.
20555 ATT:
DOCKETING AND SERVICE BRANCH DEAR MR. CHILK, ON MAY 9, 1988, THE NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION PUBLISHED A PROPOSED CHANGE TO ITS EMERGENCY PLANNING REQUIREMENTS FOR FUEL LOADING AND LOW POWER OPERATION OF NUCLEAR POWER PLANTS.
THE PROPOSED RULE CHANGE WOULD ELIMINATE MANY EXISTING LOW POWER LICENSING REQUIREMENTS, INCLUDING OFFSITE EMERGENCY RESPONSE PLANS, ANY PUBLIC NOTIFICATION SYSTEMS (INCLUDING SIRENS) AND THE TRAINING
.0F OFFSITE EMERGENCY RESPONSE PERSONNEL.
AS A RESIDENT OF THE SEABROOK, NEW HAMPSHTRE NUCLEAR PLANT AREA, I VIGOROUSLY OP?OSE THE PROPOSED AMENDMENT TO EXISTING SAFETY REQUIREMENTS.
IN FACT, I PERSONALLY FEEL THE SAFETY REQUIREMENTS ARE TOO LAX!
THE PROPOSED RULE CHANGE HAS BEEN DEVELOPED WITH ONLY THE UTILITY'S INTERESTS IN MIND.
THE NRC IS MOVING TO PLACE THE PUBLIC AT RISK FOR THE SOLE PURPOSE OF ALLOWING SEABROOK STATION TO OBTAIN A LOW POWER LICENSE, EVEN WHEN IT IS QUESTIONABLE WHETHER IT WILL EVER BY GRANTED A FULL POWER LICENSE.
IN THE INTEREST OF PUBLIC SAFETY, I URGE THE COMMISSION TO REJECT THE PROPOSED RULE CHANGE.
aLL OFFSITE EMERGENCY RESPONSE PLANNING REQUIREMENTS MUST BE IN PLACE BEFORE ALLOWING ANY DEGREE OF RISK TO THE PUBLIC, INCLUDING RISKS FROM LOW POWER OPERATION.
