Dear Mr. Conway:

Pmncis H.oring 0

  • Lva This is in response to'the letter of August 27 from Mr. Harold l

wilii.en Pena **. Jr. L. Price, Director of Reguhtien for the Atomic Energy Comiss{on, l i therno. Pwun n commenting on my letter to you of July 31. We vould like to emphasia:e l that we appreciate the thorough and prompt attention you have paid j l g ,3 n,,,,,6 l to this matte'r and we respect Mr. Price's official position as spokes- ,3,g man for the AEC. Dodd L P.aon.n Eacuuu secmary However, Mr. Price's letter is not particularly responsive to the issues raised in our letter of July 31. We did not question the precedent for " secret" meetings between the applicant and the ACRS and the AEC. But we did point out that the procedure in no vay can I be considered judicial or quasi-judicial. The record developed at hearings before the Atomic Safety and I [ Licensing Board, to which Mr. Price refers, must necessarily stem l from the existing docket, including amendments to the Pacific Gas and i Electric Company application developed throu8h discussion at these meetings. Amenttient No. 7to the company's preliminary hazards analysis, dated March 31, 1964, embodies what Mr. Price describes as a "signifi-cant change in the seismic design" of the reactor. We understand on I good authority that this design concept was suggested to the company by the AEC's own consultant, Dr. Nathan M. Revmark, retained by the Comission's staff to review the company's application. Thus, to pursue the parallel with judicial procedure, ve have here an agent for I l the judge acting as counsel for the applicant. This procedure must be viewed au more quasi than judicial and should not be used to argue i agair legislative action on S. J. Res. 167 l Secondly, Mr. Price offers no explanation for exclusion of. the U.S. Geological Survey personnel from the meeting of the ACRS subcom-mittee at Sodega Bay on June 3 Geology is a field discipline and j the issue of safety at the Bodega site now seems to turn on interpre-tation of field evidence of a fault through the reactor site. PG&S t I consultants--who did accompany the subece ittee--contend that the fault is a " minor offset." The U.S. Geological Survey report of December 1963, on the other hand, describes this fault as "an important I zone of weakness." It is difficult to see how the subcommittee could l receive the 1%11 benefit of its visit to the site, accompanied by e [ spokesmen 'for only one of these two opposing points of view. E9-1277 Purpo.

, ' 5onv$y, JCAE--9/14/64 ' g ) Finally, Mr. Price implies that the public attention paid to this project has had no influence on the abruptly broadened scope of examination by the ACRS c.nd the Commission's regulatory staff. The first introduction of the U.S. Geological Survey into the Bodega matter came as an attachment to a letter of May 20, 1963, from Secretary Udall to Chaiman Seaborg. The attachment contains a preliminary assessment o of the geology and seismology of Bodega Head and, significantly, relies heavily on fMngs by Dr. Pierre St.-Amand, a consultant retained by our citisens' Association. L, More comprehensive findings by Dr. St.-Amand are again cited for authority in the U.S, Geological Survey's report on seismology of the site in September 1963 In light l of this and the subsequent U.S.G.S. report which generated major design changes by the company, ve can reasonably infer that public participation has had a tangible effect i' on the technical evaluation of the Bodega, site. It is interesting to note, in view of later developments, that the Secretary of the Interior's letter of May 20, 1963, appears to take for granted that dise3very of l a fault thmugh the reactor site vould almost automatically result in denial of PG&E's The U.S.G.S. attachment rightly places great emphasis on the statement 7 application. by M&E consultant Dr. George V. Housner, that "it is quite impossible to design a power plant to survive without damage the large permanent ground surface displacements that might occur if the e hquake fault slippage occurred on the site." Since the j date of the Secretary's le r, the U.S.G.S. has confirmed the possibility, of fault displacement at the site. his possibility was sedepted by the company to the extent l that it has submitted two major design changes--Amendments Nos. 7 and 8--in an attappt to compensate for fault movement that the company's own consultant stated could not f be compensated for. These designs are only theoretical, having virtually no basis in operating experience--a fact which is hardly calculated to instill public confidence. That public attention is varranted in these paceedings is further indicated by a j comparison of the Bodega experience with the history of PG&E's application for the i Humboldt Bay reactor, as reviewed in the enclosed article from Fuelear Safety. l June 1960..This publication, prepared by the AEC staff at Oak Ridge, has an unblemished record for objectivity. The vriter finds that out of 19 reactor license applications reviewed, major ambiguities exist in the record of only one application--PG&E's at Rumboldt Bay. The writer finds substantial technical grounds for concern over the i safety of the Humboldt Bay installation. For a number of reasons, including a deceptivea public relations campaign by the company, the Humboldt Bay installation faced no significant public scrutiny. In view of this co=pany's, record vith its first and only other nuclear installation, we consider that comparable ambiguitica /' / I --affecting the public safety of the San Francisco Bay Area--very likely vould / ; remain in the record of the Bodega application vere it not for public participation i / i early in the licensing procedure. / j As conservationists ve are anxious to support the proper developent of nuclear } l power in California, to insure unpolluted air, to censerve water, and to ccuserve / energy. But nuclear power development requires a reservoir of public confidence in the reactor developer and in the ASC's regulatory procedures. Whether or not thi confidence can be assured depends entirely on experience vith the first large reactf' 1 j The Humboldt experience, though with a relatively small reactor, is not encouragin/ Bofega is the State's first large Power reactor--although other applications in / Souern California for comparable plants have since progressed further. Public / ophon recognizes the unique hazards posed by the Bodega site and by the exotic! design scheme devised to cope with them. Therefore, approval of the Bodega / installation vould irreparably damage the public confidence so crucial to sounf / develo pent of the peaceful atom in California. // Since 1 [ f Encit f D6 E.

The original building-I l plan submitted to this Co= mission conte =placed that the reactor strtetureshouldbeonso5.idrock;whereas,anewdesignsubmitted j in that amendment to the Atomic Energy Commission, contemplates I construction upon a layer of granular material such as sand. Why ..this change in design? What does it mean? Who were the experts l. whose subsequent opinions apparently changed the judgment of P.G.& E.'s original experts and the original expert opinion to ion-l struct upon solid rock? Is it possible that there is,a growing

  • l awareness by P.G.& E. that it has a risky proposition upon its hands l

l and is trying to improve it? In the battle of press releases, one press report appar-ently states that Dr. Quaide, one o'f P.G.& E. 's original experts, l '.cs been replaced by another expert. Dr. Quade allegediy stated: "There is a chance that the fault could break beneath the plant's site in case'of an earth-t quake. I think the probability is low. But it is necessary to face the moral issue. 'If there is even a sli ht chance of danger, should we go ahead and uild the plant?' This is but one of the multiplicity of doubts and questions which s q-l arise. All of which could easily be satisfied--or at least the effort should be made to do so--upon proceedings reopened (either. ] " by this Com=ission, or by request of P.G.6 E.) to present new and l l' }relevantmaterialtous. ~ In conclusion then, upon the motion of this Commission in .c view of the changed circumstances and events subsequent to'the ' original granting' of authority, I woul.d reopen this case. c / j~ /s/ William M.

This warning was contained in a letter to the Joint Congressional Atomic Energy Committee, released today by the Northern California Association to Preserve Bodega Head and Harbor. Development of nuclear power, such as envisioned in the California Water Plan, vill require "a reservoir of public confidence," the letter stated. And the presence of an l earthquake fault through the Bodega site makes it impossible to have confidence in any nuclear plant located there--because of the " unique hazards" and the " exotic design scheme" proposed by FG&E engineers to cope with them. (Last De'cember the U.S. Geological Survey reported an "importsnt zone of weakness" I through the reactor site. Last March PG&E proposed a " floating design" to withstand { i t violent shaking from the nearby San Andreas Fault while simultaneously riding over slip-I l page through the plant's foundations on a layer of specially graded sand.) ) "PG&E has consistently misconstrued the issue as nuclear vs. non-nuclear power," said David Pesonen, Executive Secretary of the Bodega association and author of the letter. "But the real issue is safe vs. reckless development of this new energy source." He noted that the utility "has insisted also that the plant would be perfectly safe, while frantically submitting new designs for the AEC's approval. The latest scheme is so far out that it has never been attempted for any building anywhere, mu~ch less an atomic If the AEC OK's this one," Pesonen said, "it will mean only one thing: that they reactor. care more abcut building reactors than defending public safety. And the public confidence in their expertise, necessary for sound development, vill be hard to restore." -end-Y. ,w,

Dear Mr. Conway:

Fr ncis Herring D8"a This is in response to the letter cf August 27 from Mr. Harold w a om Pean mott,Jr. L. Price, Director of Regulation for the Atomic Energy Coex21ss{on, Thomas P.,kinson commenting on my letter to you of July 31. We vould like to emphas$ae ,3,.,,,,3 that we appreciate the thorough and prompt attention you have paid a ma e and we re QM k. MCe's oMCM psMon as s%es-T. Eric Reynolds I man for the AEC. oovid E.Pesen.n zucusiw secretary However, Mr. Price's letter is not particularly responsive to the issues raised in our letter of July 31. We did not que.stion the precedent for " secret" meetings between the applicant and the ACRS and the AEC. But we did point out that the procedure in no vsy can be considered judicial or quasi-judicial. l f The record developed at hearings before the Atomic Safety and Licensing Board, to which Mr. Price refers, must necessarily stem from the existing docket, including amendments to the Pacific Gas and Electric Company application developed through discussion at these meetings. Amendment No. 7to the company's preliminary hazards analysis, dated March 31, J964, embodies what Mr. Price describes as a "signifi-cant change in the seismic design" of the reactor. We understand on good authority that this design concept var suggested to the compny by the AEC's own consultant, Dr. Nathan M. Newmark, retained by the Comission's staff to review the company's application. Thus, to pursue the parallel with judicial procedure, we have here an agent for the judge acting as counsel for the applicant. Thic procedure must be viewed as more que.si than judicial and should not be used to argue against legislative action on S. J. Res. 167 Secondly, Mr. Price offers no explanation for exclusion cf the U.S. Geological Survey personnel from the meeting of the ACRS subc.om-mittee at Bodega Bay on June 3 Geology is a field discipline and the issue of safety at the Bodega site now seems to turn on interpre-tation of field evidence of a fault through the reactor site. PG&S consultants--who did accompany the subco=mittee--contend that the fault is a " minor offset." The U.S., Geological Survey report of December 1963, on the other hand, describes this fault as "an important zone of weakness." It is difficult to see how tLe subcommittee could receive the full benefit of its visit to the site, accompanied by spokesmen for only one of these two opposin6 points of view.

I s i r e, Cpnyuy,JCAS--9/lW6h Q Finally, Mr. Price implies that the public attention paid to this project has j l had no influence on the abruptly broadened scope of examination by the ACRS and the Comoission's regulatory staff. The first introduction of the.U.S. Geological Survey I into the Bodega matter came us an attachment to a letter of May 20, 1963, from Secretary Udall to Chairman Seaborg. The attachment contains a preliminary assessment of the Ecology and seismology of Bodega Head and, significantly, relies heavily on l findings by Dr. Pierre St.-Amand, a consultant retained by our citizens' Association. j Hore comprehensive findin6s by Dr. St.-Amand are again cited for authority'in the l U.S, Geological Survey's report on seismology of the site in September 1963 In light of this and the subsequent U.S.G.S. report which generated major design changes by l the company, we can reasonably infer that public participation has had a tangible effect f on the technical evaluation of the Bodega site. i It is interesting to note, in view of later developments, that the Secretary of l the interior's letter of May 2G, 1963, appears to take for sranted that disedvery of j a fault through the reactor site vould almost automatically result in denial of pG&S's { application. The U.S.G.S. attachment rightly places great emphasis on the statement by PG&E consultant Dr. George W. Housner, that "it is quite impossible to design a power plant to survive without damage the large permanent ground surface displacement i that might occur if the earthquake fault slippage occurred on the site." Since the j date of the Secretary's leter, the U.S.G.S. has confirmed the possibility.of fault { displacement at the site. This possibility was nedepted by the company to the extent j that it has submitted two major design changes--Amendments Nos. 7 and 8--in an attempt to compensate for fault movement that the company's own consultant stated could not be compensated for. These designs are only theoretical, having virtually no basia j t in operating experience--a fact which is hardly calculated to instill public confidence. t That public attention is warranted,in these proceedings is further indicated by a comparison of the Bodega expe ience with the history of PG&E's application for the Humboldt Bay reactor, as reviewed in the enclosed article from Nuclear Eafety. June 1960..This publication, prepared by the AEC staff at Oak Ridge, has an unblemished record for objectivity. The writer finds that out of 19 reactor license applications reviewed, major ambiguities exist in the record of only one application--PG&E's at Humboldt Bay. The writer finds substantial technical grounds for concern over the safety of the Humboldt Bay installation. For a number of reasonn, including a deceptive. public relations campai n by the company, the Humboldt Bay installation 6 faced no significant public scrutiny. In view of this company's record with its first and only other nuclear installation, vc consider that comparable ambiguities --affecting the public safety of the San Francisco Bay Area--very likely vould remain in the record of the Bodega application vere it not for public participation early in the Ideensina procedure. As conservationists ve are anxious to support the proper development of nuclear power in California, to insure unpolluted air, to conserve water, and to conserve energy. But nuclear power development requires a reservoir of public confidence in the reactor developer and in the ASC's regulatory procedures. Whether or not this confidence can te assured depends entirely on experience with the first large reactors. The Humboldt experience, though with a relatively small reactor, is not encouraging. Bodega is the State's first large power reactor -although other applications in Cothern California for comparable plants have since progressed further. public opinion recognizes the unique hazards posed by the Bode 6a site and by the exotic design scheme devised to cope with them. Therefore, approval of the Bode 6a installation would irreparably damage the public confidence so enicial to sound development of the peaceful atom in California. Sincerely, Encl: cc: Mr. Harold L. Price David E. Pesonen i Executive Secretary 34. .o.meyJ.- 1

~ hd ..., ' Convey, JCAE--9/14/64 ) \\ 1 J Finally, Mr. Price implies that the public attention paid to this project has 1 had no influeno on the abruptly broadened scope of examination by the ACRS and the i Commission's regulatory staff. The first introduction of the U.S. Geological Survey into the Bodega matter came as an attachment to a letter of May 20, 1963, from The attachment contains a prelhiney assessment o Secretary Udall to Chairman Seaborg. of the geology and seismology!of Bodega Head and, significantly,' relies heavily on findings by Dr. Pierre St.-Amand, a consultant retained by our citizens' Association. f More comprehensive findings by Dr. St.-Amand are again cited for authority in the U.S, Geological Survey's report on seismology of the site in September 1963a In light l of this and the subsequent U.S.G.S. report which generated major design changes by i { the company, we can reasonably infer that public participation has had a tangible effect on the technical evaluation of the Bodega site. t e 's f It is' interesting to note, in view of later developments, that the Secretary of l the Interior's letter of May 20, 1963, appears to take for granted that disedvery of I a fault through the reactor site would almost automatically result in denial of PG&E's The U.S.G.S. attachment rightly places great emphasis on the statement application. T by IU&E consultant Dr. George W. Housner, that "it is quite impossible to design a [ power plant to survive without damage the large permanent ground surface displacements that might occur if the e hquake fault slippage occurred on the site." Since the date of the Secretary's le r, the U.S.G.S. has confirmed the possibility..of fault j his possibility was acdepted by the company to the extent displacement at the site. that it has submitted two major design changes--Amendments Nos. 7 and 8--in an attappt ( to compensate for fault movement that the company's' own consultant stated could not f be compensated for. These designs are only theoretical, having virtually no basis l in operating experience--a fact which is hardly calculated to instill public confidence.. } That public attention is warranted in these proceedings is'further indicated by a j comparison of the Bodega experience with the history of PG&E's application for the f Humboldt Bay reactor, as reviewed in the enclosed article from Eggagar Safety. June 1960..This publication, prepared by the ABC staff'at Oak Ridge, has an unblemished ~ record for objectivity. The writer finds that out of 19 reactor license applications reviewed, major ambiguities exist in the record of only one application--PG&E's at Humboldt Bay. The writer finds substantial technical grounds for concern over the safety of the Humboldt Bay installation. For a number'of reasons, including a deceptivea public relations campaign by the company, the Humboldt Bay installation faced no significant public scrutiny. In view of this company's, record vith its first and only other nuclear installation, we consider that comparable ambiguities / d --affecting the public safety of the San Francisco Bay Area--very likely would j remain in the record of the Bodega application vere it not for public participation eszly in the licensing procedure.
