~ The: Issue.
Governor Dukakis and his mob of supporters are resorting to fintimidation'through mob action to influence the Commission ~and public~sentimention the Seabrook question. Recent polls show that
- the majority:of campaign support for Mr. Dukakis comes from Seabrook opponents, and2Mr.'Dukakis actively cultivates this support for political purposes and his own aggrandizement. In effect, a q
multi-billion' dollar project'is-being held hostage to the whims'and
ambitions of one man,.Dukakis. This.is a perversion of the law; and represents a' state of. regulatory anarchy.
iJ Seabrook is built. The Commission has a duty to - see that ;
"1 1
it is operated safely _with the. strictest safety' standards.and
' operating procedures.
q The mobs of Dukakis' supporters, who resort.co' anarchy as-a means' 3
of influencing the Commission, ciannot be rewarded with further:
1 delay. At the low power testing. level, the risk of any.significant.
problem is de minimis. The Commission-could well' approve' low power-testing without-any evacuation plans.at all.
The Commission must,.in the interim,xand'whileLlow power tests continue, adopt procedures-to eliminate the influence o~f.
j anarchy 4and mob rule on the. licensing process. Mr; Dukakis'cannot-

be allowed. to: hold New England hostage. to his presidential campaign.1
,l The: embedded cost? of Seabrook must and ultimately.willLbe-amortized through rates. charged to users. Some ofL the Lprime movers -

- 4. any longer. Dukakis and his supporters recently resorted to mob
'l action against the' Governor of New Hampshire, and against Seabrook f
'f itself. While styled as " civil disobediance," the conduct of the Dukakis regiments is not civil disobediance, as the term is understood, but rather incipient anarchy and mob rule. Civil
^
disobediance is.only appropriate in the context of a near or total-lack of adequate civil rights'and legal remedies. The Dukakis group has been afforded every procedural opportunity'to make its case. The regulation and construction of massive multi-year nuclear generating stations cannot turn on ephemeral, changes in public office. Otherwise, utilities would have to stop/ start and f
stop/ start with every turn of the election wheel. Seabrook is
. builts PSNH should be given a chance to operate the station ~
lawfully and within the parameters of the strictest safety standards.
l CONCLUSION j
The time has come to put an end to the antics of Dukakis and his mob of lawbreakers. Taxpayers and ratepayers are-being forced to absorb tens of millions of dollars so that Dukakis can run for I
the White House as an " anti-Seabrook" candidate. The Commission must put an end to this obotruction and allow the station to go on line with all deliberate speed.
