.k'ashington, D. C. 26545 i
Dear Dr. Seaborgt l
i t
One of my constituents, Miss Susan Fowler of North Hampton, New Hampshire, has j
sent me the attached copy of a letter of hers shich recently appeared in the Portsmouth Herald. In this letter to the Herald she has l
set forth some concerne she has regarding the l
possible construction of a nuclear power plant I
in the area of Seabrook, New Hampshire.
i I am wondering, Dr. Seaborg, if you l
I, could have someone prepare some comments on the question Miss Tovier raises in her letter? I 1
went to be better informed on this subject.
l My tnanks to you.
\\
Sincerely, j
A
