Dear Sir:

On Hay'9. 1988, the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) published a propored: change to its emergency planning requirements for fuel loading and low-power opera ~. ion of nuclear power plants.

The proposed rule charge 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.

As a resident of the Seabrook nuclear plant area, I vigorously cppose the proposed amendment to existing safety tequirements.

'['

The proposed rule has been developed with only the utility's interests in mind.

Tne NRC is once again moving to place the public risk for the sole purpose of allowing Seabrook Station to obtal a low-power license, even though the question of n

whether

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

Sincerely,

~ /1fcz,1 W S QA.<. [
