Dear Chairman Zech:

I wish to urge denial of Carolina Power and Light Company's request for an exemption from the requirement, under 10 CFR 50, Appendix E, that the Company conduct a full participation exercise of the Emergency Response Plan for its Shearon Harris nuclear power plant within one year before beginning, commercial operation of the plant or before operating at greater than five percent of rated power.

The people of the Triangle community have a substantial right under this law to reasonable assurances that the Plan is feasible and offers adequate assurances for their safety in the event of an accident or other emergency at Shearon Harris. And, a full exercise test of the Plan, before, operation of the plant is begun, is the lawfully mandated procedure for instructing the public about what to expect and what to. do in the event of an emergency, and for testing the adequacy and feasibility of the l Plan.

l In view of the substantial changes made and anticipated to

be made in the Plan since the previous exercise in May, 1985, and l of the substantial problems demonstrated by the prevjous exercise, it is especially important that a full exercise test of the Plan be conducted before the Company is licensed to begin commercial operation, or operation at greater than five percent j of rated power, of the plant.

On behalf of the citizens of the Triangle community, I l therefore urge that the Company's exemption request be denied.
