Deac Mr. Seaborg, On August 22nd I wrote you a letter that has not been acknowledged, and recently there has been a most unusual reaction from the president of the company to which that letter referred, which makes me wonder if they actually have their people in key branches of govern-ment, such as your department.

I presume the thought is preposterous; nevertheless, a letter from you stating whether or not you received my letter of August 22nd would be appreciated. .

Very truly yours, l W Gerald A. Petersen, P re sident.

Mr. Glenn Seaborg,

, Chairman, Atomic Energy Commission, WASHINGTON 25, D. C.

Dear Mr. Peterson:

l

)

This is in response to your letters'of August 22 and October 28 )

l concerning the' application by Pacific Gas & Electric Company for a j construction permit for the proposed Bodega Bay reactor.

I am enclosing a pamphlet which describes the procedures relating totheliensingofgowerreactorsby'theAtomic:EnergyCommission a, - w -

which I answer some of the concern expressed in your letter.

He feel confident that these procedures will enable all interested persons to acquaint themselves with the datails of the Pacific Gas &

Electric Company's proposal and that they will assure thorough con-sideration of all aspects of the proposed plant bearing upon the ij question of whether tha it can be constructed and operated at the k 4

l proporad site without undue risk to the health and safety of the l

public. However, such matters as local zoning, conservation and l the esthetics of a proposed reactor site are matters within local

-Q and state jurisdiction and are not within the purview of the Atomic i

Energy Commission.

In response to your specific request that yourletter not be for g publication and in view of the reasons given for this request, your l

letters of August 22 and October 28 have been withheld. Under I Commission rules and regulations all correspondence forvarded to

~

the Commission regarding an application for a license constitutes j I

concerned. I wish to assure you that the contents of your letter z 1

1 therefore, do not see how there could be any connection between your letter and the " reaction from the President of the Company" referred to in your letter of October 28.

I wish to express appreciation for your stated interest and l hope that the material which is enclosed will be helpful to you.
