20555 Attn: John Philips, Chief, Rules & Procedures Branch Division of Administration, 4000 MNBB Re Decommissioning of Humboldt Bay Nuclear Power Plant #3 Eureka, California Docket No. 50-133

Dear Mr. Philips:

This is to add my name to the roster of residents of Humboldt County that believen we have a right to a local public hearing for the decommissioning of the Humboldt Bay Nuclear Plant.

In reviewing the DEIS, I concur with many of the concerns I have heard expressed 1

re the lack of precise information in the document.

[

Since decommissioning is a very new process, new technology, and very long terms it is absolutely necessary to be very prudent in the decision process of how and what alternative is to be used.

The local concerned citizens need to hear y,ou in a local forum and be able to ask you their questions face to face.

NEPA has always required a public hearing as well as written comments, before the Final EIS.is prepared. How else can our concerr.s be addressed in the FEIS?

The process should not be shortened for something with the possible disastrous i

environmental impacts as a nuclear power plant. If anything the public participation process should be increased.

Many local people, myself included, have grave concerns about this plant which started many years ago.

To propose to keep the plant in SAFESTOR.for 30 years may be justifiable, l

I but I vociferously disa6ree with your costelusion (4) (a) on p. v, that

" storing the spent fuel assemblies at Humboldt Bay is the sole viable alter-native for spent fuel storage at this. time." And this is based on a

' generic determination'. Come on! What exactly is a ' generic determination'?

I have many other questions and see many other discrepancies and ambiguities in the DEIK.

I sincerely hope that with this issue that will have such a long term impact on this community, that you will grant us the consideration of coming out here for a face to face public hearing.

We appreciate your extending the comment period, but that really is not sufficient.

Sincerely, Kan %Mikut W
