Dear Sir:

(

On May 9, 1988, the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) published j

a proposed change to its emergency planning requirements for fuel loading and low-power operation of nuclear power plants.

1 The proposed rule change would eliminate many existing low power licensing rege'rements, including offsite emergency response plans, any pub..ic-notificatior systems (including sirens), and the training of offsite emergency response personnel.

4 As a resident of the Seabrook nuclear plant area, I vigorously i

oppose the proposed amendment to axisting safety requirements.

The proposed rule has been developed with only the utility's t

interests in mind.

The NRC is once again moving to place the 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.

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 6

t of risk to the public, including risks from low power operation.

Sincerely, s

I 8806270066 880606 I
