Dear Sir:

t

. r On May 9, 1988, the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) published a proposed change to its emergency planning requirements for fuel j

loading and low-power operation of nuclear power plants.

h~

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 of offsite emergency response personnel.

f As a resident of the Seabrook nuclear plant area, I vigorously oppose the proposed amendment to existing safety requirements.

t

,l The proposed rule has been developed with only the utility's a

interests in mind.

The NRC is once again moving to place the

,f public at risk for the sole purpose of allowing Seabrook Station to obtain a low-power license, even though the question of whether it will ever be granted a full power license is seriously in doubt.

3

[

In the interest of public safety, I urge the Commission to reJeset g

the proposed rule change.

All offsite emergency respon.me 3

planning requirements must be in place before allowing any degree of risk.to the public, including risks from low power operation.

r I

t Sincerely,

[

y.Cg C. We u-y.
