Dear Sir; j l \

I e.m writing as a very concerned citizen about the events surround-ing tne Ofst6r Cree'c Huclecr Power Plant in for.ced River, New Jersey.

We live end work in the crea of the power plant and for years have hecrd all the quick, pat answers on the part of tne Jersey Central Power and Lich C Company telling the co.runity how scfe these plants are, and ho.y they were not releasing any rt dioactive ut.stes into the bay etc.

In Dec. taere was nn e.aergency shut down due to human error ciid as a result there ere some 150,000 gallons of rt dior.ctive, enromated water in the baseraent of t.2e power ple.nt. Inis incident was no t anr.ounced until three weeks .f ter it occured. Taere have also bcen repeated fich kills in Oyster Creac, whic. still hr.ve not been fully explained.

The Envioronceatal Protection Agency has done tests on Barnegat Bay and toey scy that adior.ctive elements are significtntly increased and they rtiso clait bue power plcnt le dumping 30,000 cc11ons of rec.ior.ctivo .; tcr fe_ . L .. i. 00 .. ., m. j . 2..c .a . . _ co...pt ag d ein e s tnis of cource.

W are very upset by the , lies,and misinf6rustion on tae pr.rt of the JCPAL Co. Se fr cts r:1wcf o see.a tobe overs.ia.dc ;ed by e::rre.r.es on ei t..er side. I do,n' ; buy the t.; eor 7 tnat t'.e plant will explode anymore t.n.n I buy the power coapanies speec.. ..at t..cp perfec tly sc fe and no t to worry. Tne A.E.C.. rad. the powev companies are selling a product and it seems that they will do anytaing to keep that pr6 duct on the mar.:e t. T;e only problem is t is product could have very diverse effects on tae surrounding communities. Are the peoples health and oar bay cnd ocean waters expendable in tce name of progress?

e Witc. all of these problems tne JCP&L wants to build a second plant
