Dear Sir:

[

On May 9, 1988, the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) published a proposed change to its emergency planning requirements for fuel loading and low-power operation of nuclear power plants.

l The proposed rule change would eliminate many existing low power licensing requirements, including offsite emergency response l

plans, any public-notification systems (including sirens), and the training of offsite emergency response personnel.

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

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

interests in mind.

The NRC is once again moving to place the I

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.

l In the interest of public safety, I urge the Commission to reject l

the proposed rule change.

All offsite emergency response planning requirements must be in place before allowing any degree l

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

Sincerely, WW 0 fhr*~- V&
