==Dear Chairman Boxer and Ranking Member Waxman:==
==Dear Chairman Boxer and Ranking Member Waxman:==
, Our thanks to b.oth,,of you for helping to ensure rigorous oversight of the San Onofre nuclear reactors..We are grateful that Ranking Member Waxman pushed the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) Chairman to seriously examine the need for a -license amendment regarding Edison's proposed restart of Unit 2 at partial power. Chairman Boxer also showed'exemplary leadership by calling attention to a Mitsubishi Heavy Industries (MHI) report that reveals new details about the design and fabrication of Edison's now crippled San Onofre replacement steam generators and about the possibility that Edison was.trying to avoid a license amendment before the faulty equipment was installed.

We appreciate that Congressional pressure:
We.were heartened by Southern California Edison's (Edison's) announcement. that: it may finally request a license amendment regarding its experimenrtal restart plan for San Onofre's Unit 2, except that the utility adds in its press release that it "will submit a 'No Significant Hazards Consideration' analysis demonstrating that the license amendment does not involve any significant safety risks." A No Significant Hazards Consideration (NSHC) would effectively deny the public a meaningful public hearing and critical independent, expert review before the license amendment is issued: This is unacceptable. Public trust will not be restored by continued attempts to avoid such a hearing process, and this type of effort to convince the public that minor technical license amendments are sufficient.

We also request that you insist the agency hold their April 3 meeting about Edison's license amendment request in the impacted region, namely Southern California. As public officials representing Southern California communities, our constituents risk being seriously harmed in the event of a major nuclear accident at San Onofre, so it is imperative to us that any decisions about restarting the crippled reactors are made with maximum deliberation and meaningful opportunity for input from the public.
