m l W!US.ilidundER y E ROPQSED RULE E LJC r E ;i.: J:( i rg *r Nancy E. Guilbert ' "M WC 33 Holmgren Road Stratham, NH 03885 '88 JUN 23 P7 :42 '88 JJN 23 F Secretary of the Commission fOCKE ij,4,; e, 0. Attn Docketing and Service Branch QFF C.- U. U.S. Nucleat Regulatory Commission U0CKET E e. L~vict Washington, DC 20555 To Whom this may concern: I believe that for low-power testing, it would not be necessary for a plant to have the same full-scale public notification system in place that is required for full-powered operation. The risks to public health are much lower, the time _available for emergency action is 10 hours longer, and the plant would only be operating at 5% instead of 100% (which the safety system is designed to handle). Also, Seabrook is designed with a doubled-walled containment structure that would not fail, during low-powered testing, even without the safety systems. Seabrook has built a safe plant and has met every regulatory requirement. They have designed and submitted a new notification system to take the place of the original system that was met with disaproval Trom Massachusetts. I feel that Seabrook Station is necessary to help relieve the energy shortage. Thank you for your time. Sincerely, QA W l Nancy E. uilbert l i l 8807050069 880623 PDR PR 50 53FR16435 PDR l DS@ .}}
