The Honorable

Marcus Rowden, Chairman
Nuclear Regulatory Commission
Washington, D.C. 20555

Dear Marc:

On January 16, 1976, I requested Chairman Anders to provide information concerning export of highly enriched uranium. While this request was fulfilled partially in a letter dated March 23, certain of the requested data was not provided. In particular, as you noted, the list specifying the end use of the highly enriched uranium was incomplete. In addition, there was no indication of the extent to which the NRC keeps track of the materials once it leaves the United States.

I would appreciate your undertaking to insure that the remaining information is provided expeditiously.

Sincerely,

Morris K. Udall, Chairman
Subcommittee on Energy and
the Environment

MICHAEL C. MARDEN
MINORITY COUNSEL

[blocks in formation]

A recent press release (76-12) notes the Commission's interest in insuring adequate opportunity for staff members to communicate their views to top management. I wholeheartedly support such a policy.

Public confidence in the regulatory process is a necessary concomitant to a viable nuclear energy program in the United States. To achieve such confidence requires that diverse viewpoints are represented on the NRC staff and that channels exist through which disparate views may be heard.

The Subcommittee on Energy and the Environment is considering holding hearings concerning the contention of some public interest groups that the public interest is not sufficiently taken into account in the Commission's decision making. I would appreciate, therefore, your informing the Subcommittee with regard to the manner by which the Commission is assured that diverse perspectives are well represented on the staff and with regard to procedures which encourage expression of views by low and mid-level staff.

Sincerely,

Morris K. Udall

Chairman, Subcommittee on
Energy and the Environment
