DEP ARTMENT OF civil ENGINEERING N. M. NE W M A R K, H E A D 205' Civil Engineering Hall March 27, 1964 Dr. Edson G. Case Assistant Director for Facill ties Licensing Division of Licensing and Regulation _ ,

United States Atomic Energy Commission C,  ;

Dear Dr. Case:

l This will acknowledge your letter of 24 March 1964 regarding Amendment No. 6 to the Pacific Gas and Electric Company s application 8

for the Bodega Bay Reactor. I note that this amendment supersedes Amendment No. 4 I have not yet completed my comments on the questions raised at the preceding meeting in Washington, but I expect to do so shortly.

With regard to the proposed meeting during the week of April 6th, the only date on which I can be available in Washington is April 7.

It will be impossible for me to come later during that week, and I am not sure about the following week as yet.

I have not heard f rom you regarding the other matter we discussed when I was in Washington. I should like to know what the status is of any further work that I might be doing for the Commission on related problems as I am about to make arrangements to work for one of the firms that is concerned wi th the design problems for reactors.

Sincerely yours ,
