l71 i Dear commission _ Chairman lando Zech; considering the conocluences of nuclear power cd4fdliy eno,d]gn in theAs a concerned, y inspection and opening of nuclear reactora.

As a 1.assachusetts citizen,I am very concernad.1about nuclear ener7y, primarily about the Seabrook-and Pilgrin plantstin"hystato.I feel that

.the Seabrook reactors should not be turned on.2irstly,thr4re is not an adequate evacuation plan for such a densely populated area,having very ~

few entrances or exits to the area. Secondly,I feel that the safet,y re-quirements for the two plants have not been met. .

Although the 130's reputation may have suffered in all of the pub-licity,it's thought of as an unefficient committee who's only concern is to promote nuclear energy,and open as many plants as possible-recardless  ;

of the problems prestnt.It's said that you change safety standards and  :

operating requirements just to open plants. Records show that-you've never turned down a license for a completed plant,and almost always

' allow closed plants to reopen.Nhat Cood does nuclear energy do if it's going to kill us?

If an evacuation plan is supposed to be for safety,how can you change the evacuation zone just to open Seabrook7dhat good does an evacuation zone do if it doesn't cover the whole area that would be affected if an t accident we c to occur?  ;

i firmly believe thu s as long as there are even ginor problems pres- j ent,a nuclear plant should7't be opened because there can be no cmall 1

flaws when it comes to the safety of people,and the preservation of cur.

carth.

In closinc,I thank you for taking time out of your schedule to listen to my opinions,and wish you would consider my viewpoint.It vould also be e much appreciatea if you answer ny questions. .

Sincerely, I 1.manda Ecwland 44 nushing St.
