PROPOSED RULE 00(.KEICC' UWRC

118 JN 16 P4 36 June 6, 1988 Q7ffgyy7Qy'jy Samuel J. Chilk Secretary of the Commissjon BRANCH Attention: Docketing U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission and Service Branch 1717 H Street, E.W.

Washington, D.C.

Dear Sir:

On May 9, 1988, the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) published a proposed change to its emergency planning requirements for fuel 3

loading and Icw-power operation of nuclear power plants.

The proposed rule change would eliminate many existing low power licensing requirercents, including offsite emergency response plans, any public-nstification. systems (including sirens), and tha traini.ng o8 offsite emergency response personnel.

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

The propored' role has been developed with only the utility's in*erests in mind.

The NRC is once again moving to place the puc.ite 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.

In the 1e.terest of public safety, I urge the Commission to reject

,j the p oposed 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.

Sincerely, k
