REQUEST TO CHAIR UPCOMING PUBLIC MEETING REGARDING THE DECOMMISSIONING OF THE BIG ROCK POINT NUCLEAR PLANT

Dear Mr. Johnson:

We wish to invite you to chair an upcoming public meeting at the Charlevoix Township Hall (Stroud Hall), Charlevoix, MI, on November 13,1997, for the decommissioning of BRP.

This meeting is being held to inform the public to Ccnsumers Energy plans to forego the 27-year long-term (SAFSTOR) decommissioning option in lieu of immediate dismantlement and decontamination (DECON). We plan to present a short description of the regulatory process during decommissioning, hear comments, and respond to questions. Consumers Energy will discuss the changes to their decommissioning plans.

The previous public meeting.; held on May 11,1995, and March 4,1997, discussed Consumers Energy plans to place the power plant in SAFSTOR following permanent plant shutdown and described, in brief, the possibility that they may elect DECON, if a low-level radioactive waste depository were available. The public meeting on November 13,1997, will provide the public with an opportunity to ask questions or make comments on the Consumer Energy decision to immediately dismantle and decontaminate the BRP plant.

I will contact you during the week of October 19th to discuss your availability to chair the November 1S,1997 meeting.

Sincerely, ORIGINAL SIGNED BY:
