Dr. G lenn T. Seaborg Chairman U. S. Atomic Energy Commission Washington 25, D. C.

Dear Dr. Seaborg:

Recent events cause us to believe that you may have given at least tacit approval of construction of a nuclear power reaccor on Bodega Head by Pacific Gas & Electric Co.

Ee are surprised that you would permit your name and office to be used by PG & E's propaganda machine, without first going through at least the gesture of'a public hearing before the Atomic Energy Commission. Recently several newspapers have carried articles wherein they have quoted your statement, "I would live next door to the Atom". This has not been l qualified in any way - such as, "-- were the site found to be l a safe one", or "-- should our U. S. Government Geologists and Seismologists recommend the site as being one that is safe from i earthquake hasard".

We feel the integrity of your office should cause you to publish a statement qualifying your enthusiasm for the Atom, particularly since Pacific Gas & Electric Co. is disparaging the findings of U. S. Government Geologists and Seismologists.

The enclosure (PG & E Progress) is just one example of the manner in which PG & E has arrogantly caused it to appear that the Atomic Energy Commission is "in the palm of it's hand".

Very truly yours,
