Gentlemen:

L&R Fue It has come to my attention through reedingl variou&;;w@/) s

, articles that the Pacific Gas and Electric Comneny nlans to put a nuclear I.swered steam-clectric genereting clent on Bode 6e Head.

I have read thet this $1ont will contain seventy-five tons of two end< one-half per cent urenium fuel end three hundred seventy-five pounds o: ranium or, one hundred fifty times as much fissionable r.at.crial es there was in the bomb that caused the terrible destruction and loss of life in Hir-oshima.

If I am not mistaken, M -r . ..a be a three hun-dred foot stack atop tb  :, cc w ' .1 'oel a waste gos,

~

Iodine 131, which is v 2 ma. M thrt this waste gas decays in thr<, e '/ur daya. '.: 's its deirymen of Bo-

  • ~? tery of nilk to de6a Bay pride tt _ O ch t '.2 o stores, it is en- a ... oc .siMe Aat v.14 . 1.'a on the tables of consumers br.- tae .. m e hes d.e w % ,,

Also, tr.: . nant will o- f.rca of r m rom the San Andreas h lt--the se.w +iuh Get musec t; a Fren-cisco earthey s P 1906. .. E of 1959, 3.ur :c.,d9sion ruled that - a 1r a ple:c su h as this ruey c.? on a fault; in F* ri of 1961 ic ruled that'a tit.a - or; from one-half t c. fc.urth mile eway from e fault: end the sum-4 mer of 19c_, it ruled thet e site may be no closer r' one-fourth mile from a fault. This rule wee pessed oft & te Pacific Gas and Electric Comperly enroue cod its ele: - out this plant on Bodega Head.

I have reed also that the safety d,- to be us n this plant has never been tested, end t'. , 'irst w it was subjected to approval, it wes not er4 avec by you:- en- ,

mission.

The result of a mefor :cicteent of this pl wor & she ,

possible loss of life of S.MO recole, the por .)le in ,. c. of 43,000 people, end possibu '.one tern adiatio, demego a .s ev -

eral thousand people. The nsul; of ~ ' icr accident of this

- plent could be the same as the resui.' " one that hanpened in e olent of this type in Idaho; the a f 110 liires.

. With this much r'isk involved, ve at it is truly.

.angerous to allow this plant ti be E L"  : so do n.ot allow U.lis senseless gamble of human 1.ives.. strongly against ir.e building of this plent.  !

l s41 Thank you for allowing me to expps my views.

l Repne'ctfuUy yours, s f-P ACT!ON " 4any .
