Dear Ms. Presley:
Thank you for your.recent letter concerning the Seabrook Nuclear Station.
.Since:the Seabrook Station is currently the subject of licensing hearings.
a before the Commission, it is inappropriate for me to comment on the merits
-l of the issues. You may be assured, however, that protection of the publ.ic
]
health and safety'will be the paramount consideration in decisions I may make on the hearing record.
l Your letter also expressed concern about the Commission's' proposed changes to its emergency planning regulations. The proposed rule (copy enclosed)*
has been published for public coment, and the comment period has been-extended to June 4, 1987. The Commission will decide whether to adopt the proposed rule after evaluating the public comments we receive.- Should you have more specific comments on the rule, please send them to the address listed in the notice.
I appreciate and we'1come your views on the Commission's responsibilities.
Sincerely, JJ-W
