Commisioner Jeffery S. Merrifield United States Nuclear Regulatory Commission Washington DC 20555-0001 Gentlefolk, You have before you a petition &om Carolina Power & Light (1) to allow them to transport, for long term storage, spent fuel elements &om their other plants to their Harris Plant. That plant lies proximate to my home, to Raleigh, to Durham, to Chapel Hill and to the Research Triangle. As you consider this petition we who live here would appreciate it ifyou would consider the foHowing logic.
> There is a possibility, albeit smaV, that spent fuel can cause an event that would be devastating to its neighbors. We thus face the situation Dr. Edward Teller characterized as follows, in talking about siting of nuclear plants (Yes, that Dr. Teller.):
The probability that something willgo seriously wrong is real. But the damage that ~ould be causedis infinite. So you have the peculiar problem ofmultiplying zero times infinity. (2)
> The greater the concentration of nuclear material the greater the risk of an untoward occurrence and the greater its damage potential. (3)
> In this country one has a right to expect a benefit comensurate with whatever risk he/she is asked to assume.

r Our Commissioners, herc in Chatham County, have. asked you to delay your decision beyond the February 12 deadline so that they can evaluate the opinion of consultants they hired to assist them in assessing the risk benefit/equation. Such a delay
'ould help all of us to appreciate the impact of alternate solutions to the problem before us. However the logic above is all any fair minded person needs to arrive at the conclusion that the fuel rods rightfully belong just where they are. The beneficiaries of a risk are the ones who, fairly, should assume that risk. It's that simple!
Since we, living near Harris, see no such benefit from assuming the risks the petition before you places on us, we respectfully request that you deny that petition irrevocably.
