CTUR is an organization of citizens of

• arrant County, Texas, who, and many of whose families, reside and either werk er attend school in Tarrant c unty, which is approximately thirty-five miles northeast of C manche Peak Steam Electric Statien. Therefere, CFUR and its members have a direct and proper interest in the safe Opera-ti:n of C manche Peak Steam Electric Station and in Ony regulat:ry prcceeding concerning Texas Utilities Generating Company's applicati:n for an operating license for C manche Peak Steam Electric Station.

The members of CFUR also are all residential cust:mers of Texas Electric Service C:mpany, an affiliate of Texas Utilities Generating C:mpany, which plans to deliver and bill cust:mers for pcwer generated by C:manche Peak Steam Electric Station. Therefore, CFUR and its members have a direct and pr:per interest in any ccats incurred by Texas Utilities Generating C:=pany as a result of cw.;tructien, reg-ulation and operation of Cemanche Peak Steam Electric Station which would optimize the cafe operatien thereof.

CFUR has been a participant, either as a public participant er as Intervenor, in electric utility and gas utility rate cases affect-o ing residential consumers in Tarrant County since January, 1976.

CFUR is currently an Intervenor in hearings in Austin, Texas, bef:re the Public Utility Cceraissicn of Texas in Re: Application of Texas Electric Service C:mpany for Authcrity to change Rates and Inquiry by Public Utility Commissien of Texas into certain Affiliated

?ransactiers of Texas Electric Service Company, Texas Pcwer & Light Ccmpany and Dallas Pcwor & Light Company (Decket No. 1903, also ::cc-kat Ncabers 1517, 1789, 1913 and 2019). Cn'R was also an Interven:t in the criginal Application of Texas Elecaic Service C =pany f:r Authcrity t: Change Rates ( riginal Docket 1303) in 1978 bef:re the Public Utility C--4ssion of Texas.

As such participa..t and/or Intervencr, CFUR's interest in such regulatory proceedings has been frem the standpoint of the residential censumer with an environmental awareness.

CF"R has thus demonstrated an engeing, respcnsible participation in regulatory preceedings over a peried cf three years.

CFVR is financed c:mpletely and 7:luntarily at O f the pc=ket.;

cf its meeers, and has never solic;ted contributa 's from anyone.

Contributiens fr m mecccrs have always been c:::.pletely channelec into CFLT.'s participation in a particular regulat:ry prtee+31ng. ::a :ccm-bor of CF"a has ever received remunerati:n Or ::nJ t jeration cf valae for such .M rticipation, ner has CFUR re sived Jm: . There Lre, it can be seen that CFUR is in a strict sense a 1: cal, cita: ens Organi:4-tien which has participated in government regulat un resp:nsibly.

II I???EFESTS TO 9E AFTEC??O WHEREAS CFUR's members reside, ge about their daily lives, Own preperty, persvnal and/:r real, and in seme cases +arn their liveli-hoods, in an area about thirty-five miles from Cf.1anche Peak Stasm Electric 't. len, and pay electric races affected by all cos:s ass:-

• EEREFCRE, it can be seen that CFLV and its  ?. ambers have a direct and creper interest in these same abcve-capti:ned reculatory pr:cced-ings, and shculd be permitted Inter /enor status by the :.uclear Reg-ulatery Cemrtission.

FURTMERMCRE, the participation of Cn.*R is necessary to assure the broad public participation in such proceedings which is intended by the Rules of the !Tuclear Regulatcry Cerntissi n and by, the public an;.:uncements of the ::cclear Regulatory Ccemis sien, as well as by its mandate trem the United States Congress.
