Dear Chief:

I I have recently had a visit from Mr. Edwin Dienethal and Mr. Randy Robarge in reference to their concerns for the safety of the areas in and around the City of Zen.

If there is any validity to their accusations, I should like to know and, of course, would appreciate your full investigation.

1 Due to the wide media coverage of the matter, the public has understandably become very concerned about their safety and welfare.

This portion of my letter may seem a little negative. We have lived in the shadow of a nuclear  !

facility where we have always been told that "this is no problem" and after the fact we find l

2ere always was some kind of problem.

I would appreciate a response at your earliest possible convenience.
