Dear Mr. Beecher:

l Rank you fbr your prompt reply to my letter of July 2d,1997, relanting procedures and policies for l

NRC public meetings. Yoer response indicates eat thus is no established procedure or policy covedag the vosobedulias of a public masting, it seems that in abeemos of snok a specino procedure or pony for ru obedaling, the saladna procedure on sehedelias/announcias pebile messags would be la effect. If this reasonable assumption is inconsistent with NRC practice, please infona let me know.

la your response, you spesif,ed that approvel ls writing by b appropriate breach chief or high level manager is required for public meetings that need to be sobeduled la less than 10 ders. ! call your assentien to NRC Press Aalease No. I.9746 dated April 9,1997. As this press release indicanes, a public messing sabedaled for 6e following day, April 10,1997, in ibe White Flat esses to disous se Nias Mile Point Unit 1 core shroud inspection was resobeduled for the following Monday, April 14,1997, la Feitos, New Yoik. since this public messing wm announced less the 10 calendar days rf 7 in advance, I respectfuly request, pursuant to the Freedom ofInformation Act, a oopy of ibe wriansa j( approval. _

In your response, you indicated that " members of the public must obsma pdor Commission approval" to speak danas a Commission meeting to allow "NRC business to be administered la a fair and orderty fashina? I will give you " orderly,' but I deeph resent your charassariassian of eis NRC pressies as " fair? I formally asked the Commission Apr permission to outline our sonneras on austear safety at Maine Yankes during the February 4,1997, Coasmission brienas. I asked for 15 mientes te cover my maserial. I was granted 5 minutes. Pdor to the meeting, I was instsveted by a member of the Osce of es scoretary not to go ova 8 minates. I rushed through my abbrevissed maserial in order to avoid the smiberraessant of bang out off la mid. presentation, a fate whink one of my sneessaars, Mr.

Raymond shadis, susseed. Prior to our pr==*=tana, both the Maine Yankee liosasse med the NRC stad went well over their allotied presentation does without any consequence. ' Fair" is densed in my dictionary as "Aus aus favor toward sibr or any side? NRC's public meeting me simply not fair to the public s
