Dear Mr. Hendriei As a significant user of electric power produced by the Metrespolitan Edison Co., York, Pa., we wish to express our concern with the continued shutdown .

of TMI Unit #1.

The greatly increased cost of power Eroduced by alternate fuel sources has ca'ised this plant's electric bilJ to rise more than $5,000 per month emared to a year ago when TMI #1 was optrational. Even =cre important is the waste of fossile fuels and the further aggravation of this country's foreign oil i= port problem that the 1.2ss of nuclear power generatien creates'. It f.s -

essential to the economic well being of this count"f that we make full use of our available nuclear pow r stations as well as continue to expand our nuclea.r powered generating capabu 'ty.

.Se urgency of the need f. r lower cost electric power in this heavy industry area prompts this request for your favorable consideration of an early return to service of TMI Unit #1.
