Subject:

REG:CTE Docket No. 50-205

Dear Mr. Beck:

We appreciate your September 17th letter which was in re-sponse to a letter we sent to President Johnson on August 22, 1964. Thank you for sending us the pamphlet, " Licensing of Power Reactors" and the rules of practice.

On Augus t 19, 1964, we wrote to Mr. W. R. Price, Assistant re-Director, Division questing that of Licensing certain questions and Regulation,No be answered. A.E.C.

reply,has been received to our request, and we are wondering if you will be kind enough to give us the answers:

1. Could the Federal Channel at the entrance to Bodega l

Harbor be closed at any time? That is in the case of a nuclear accident at the plant, or at times of chang-ing the fuel core? Any other circumstance?

2. Would the U. S. Coast Guard Station on Doran Park come within the exclusion area?
3. Would there be any circumstance that would result in evacuation of the town of Bodega Bay?

Naturally all of the above questions refer to the proposed nuclear plant on Bodega Head.

Sincerely yours, Ray ebel Dg 1297 RR:MR Secretary-Manager CC Mr. E. R. Price, Ass't Director Rec'd Off. Dir. oY Reg' .
