Dear Mr. Darby:

Thank you for your letter of August 18, 1971, which requested information on any Atomic Energy Commission regulations which prevent tours of nuclear facilities. There are no AEC regu-lations which prohibit tours of nuclear _facilitiest however, the AEC does expect any licensee conducting tours to take necessary steps to limit atnd control access of tour party members to assure the safety of the tour members as well as

^

to assure continued safe operation of the plant.-

I hope the above information answers your questions regarding tours.

Sincerely, Peter A. Morris, Director Division of Reactor Licensing ces D. F. McElroy Vice President, Engineering Northern States Power Company 414 Nicollet Avenue Minneapolis, Minnesota $5401 Cerald Charnoff Shaw, Pittmau,_Potts, Trowbridge,-

20S45 Ocar Sir!

last July, I wrote to :leMhern States Power Conpany in blinneapolis request-ing pc>u.slssion to towt their nuclear power platt at flonticetto, !lbincsota (copy attached).

1 an teaching a ccaue in Lnvironmental Geology and con-sider tilat some knowledge of nucleM electrical pcwcr generation is ' cssot-tial in widerstanding the options available to bic United States. for the future. Ify students would have benefited greatly frcm a personal experi-ence of visiting a plant and inaving bic oppoMwtity to ask questions of an

,infomed, experienced person.

tiot receiving an anstech to my Lettch and afler several

• phone catis, I was.

finalty infoved that such a towt by a decen pcMens was not possibtc.

Tite lady wiw so infewed me stated that tlicir refusal was duc -to A.C.C.

regulations.

1f this is true I am dismayed my University students, some of graduate stmuling, can have, no cypertw14ti to s4tdy the cperation of a j

nuclear power ptmit.

1 would Like to be istformed of the regulation which.

prevents such towu, mtd if thetc arc exccpticus.

I wcuts greatly appre-chate your netp in this unattch.

Hoping to hear f tcm you in bic near futarc,'I rco"ain Very.tsuty yours, d
