~
l This is to supplement' Joe Fouchard's discussion with .
you on December- 26 concerning Dr. Alexander. Grandon's .
y4, request that the public hearing on the Bodega Bay. '
reactor be held in California. '
i Dr. Grendon called:the SAN information office on !
December 26 to inform AEC that s' citizen group was' I l
reported to be circulating petitions requesting that ;
the' hearing be held in California. The citizen ~ group i reportedly is implying that such a petition is' the 'only way that the hearing could be held there. . Dr. Grendon believes that some firm expression from ABC that the l
- hearing will be held in Californ*.a should be made now, j even though we still do not have an application 'for '
construction permit.
j j We recoassend that you inform Dr. Grendon that when the
/ PG end E ' application is ready for hearing, the hearing j l, will be held in California. We believe this is. consistent with past practice of the Commission where unusual citizen interest has been expressed (Elk River, for example). ;It also will help to show the citizens ~ of the Bodega area that we are aware of their interest, and we are voluntarily planning to hold the hearing in California. We believe that Dr. Grendon would plan to make your letter public.

Association to Preserve Bodega Head and Harbor is circulating a petition against - l 1
e the Pacific Gas and Electric Company Nuclear Power Plant at Bodega Head. The .j petition now being circulated in Sonoma County is aimed at the Atomic Energy s
- a. Comnission, the State Public Utilities Commission, and the Sonoma County Board of Supervisors. The petition _ appeals to the three public bodies asking for a public hearing. The measure also asks for public hearings in Sonoma County.
The AEC has yet to grant a construction permit to the utility. for the reactor. j The Association is attempting to have these hearings held on the West Coast. j ox e #

The arguments by Dr. Thom-

Specifically, the very great possibility that a temperature in- "
version in the local waterway could raise temperature for as much as a few days to a level where much of . -
the life would be kl!!cd alone makes the site most incompatible with the needs for producing
