Dear Mr. Chairman:

This is to inform the Subcommittee on Energy and the Environment that the Commission has received supplemental antitrust advice from the Attorney General in connection with Boston Edison Company's Pilgrim fluclear Power Station, Unit tio.1.

This advice is rendered pursuant to section 105c of the Atomic Energy Act of 1954, as amended.

A copy of the Attorney General's letter dated March 17, 1980, is enclosed.

In his letter he concludes:

"Since the Department rendered its advice in 1978, we have received no new information which would indicate that issuance of an operating license to Boston Edison Company would ' create or maintain a situation inconsistent with the antitrust laws.'

42 U.S.C. 6105(c).

In light of this, because of the withdrawal of the Massachusetts Municipals' Petition to Intervene and based upon other information we have received, the Department is of the opinion that an antitrust hearing is no longer necessary with respect to the instant application."

Sincerely, 8

NWSALI1MAy Jerome Saltzman, Chief Antitrust and Indemnity Group Office of fluclear Reactor Regulation
