or certiorari to cmpel the Boemi to revoke a soning use pemit grant to Pacific Gas and Electric Cctspany for a proposed nuclear power reactor at Bode 62 BeFs has been carefully considered.
Cacnission u.ay wish to intervene or to file a brief amicus curiae.You have s letter confims my tele & rom sent to you today as to the possibility of This participation by the Atomic Energy Commisaica inthe proceeding.
The Ccmission does not desire to participate in the present proceeding.
We have carefully considerei the outline of the proposed ar6ur.ent by the County of Scace.a as set forth in your letter of March 22, and have concluded that participation by the Commission in the case as amicus curiae or as applicant for intervention is not an appropriate mechanism by vnich the Commission would wish to undertake the resolutica of any quos-tious which might arise concerning its authority in relation to that of states and local authorities.
I What I have said should not be construed as constituting either concurrence 2n or disgzwement with any of the statements of fact, opinicn or law in N
pargraph XVII or elsewhere in the petition. As sua are probably cvare, acco of the statements of fact and opinica in the yetitian as to the effects of radiation are ccanenly accepted as correct while others are at Isaat highly controversial.
The Ccenission will of course be 6 ad to make available to any party in 1
the proceeding any pertinent information which muy pror4rly be disclosed.
