Dear Mr. Zech:

I am writing to you again to reconfirm our displeasure with the proposed rule change for evacuation plans f or nuclear power plants.

We believe that local and state governments should continue to have a right to be a part Jf the evacuation plans and under no circumstances should the nuclear industry dictate to the American people what is safe and what is not, without the participation of the people.

F rankly, we are disgusted with the Meagan Administration's pro-nuclear stance, and are appalled that you would even consider eliminating local say in evacuation plans.

we also would like to object to the proposed rule change to allow nuclear plants to boost power levels by 5 per cent to 10 per cent. It is outrageous to have the audacity to say that nuclear plants are being hampered by certain rules and safety analyses. It may be your opinion that there would be an"insignificant ef f ec t on risk." We, however, who live in the shadow of one of the worst plants in the United States, the LaSalle btation Plant of Commonwealth Edison, f eel that "insignif icant" is in the eyes of the beholder. We, of Hesidents Against a Polluted Environment would like to strongly voice are dicpleasure at your propsed nlo changes.

2 We trust you will listen to the 'public and realize we are speaking of the health of not only odeselves, but generations to come.

do no t cow to the monetary and political power of the nuclear industry.

Sincerely,
