As you know, ISPIRG has been an advocate for a curbside nick -up annroach for some time. We believe that such an arproach will provide a good basis for an eventual program of total solid weste recycling. Therefore, we were very pleased to learn of the rec- commendati.on of the City staff members of such a program. I understand that the program will require 80% cooperation to be viable. I would like to offer ISPIRG's services to ,you in any way that would be helpful, in assuring that cooperation. It mip;ht be of interest to you to know that we are now making plans for an in- formatic,nPl meeting about recycling and as plans proceed, I will keep you informed. Once again, thank you. Your direction in this matter will prove to be, I am sure, of the greatest benefit to Iowa Citians.

The safety systems installed in presently operating nuclear power plants are crude and untested.. A number of design weaknesses in these safety systems have been confirmed. Moreover: there is extensive evidence that the workmanship going into nuclear power plant construction is far from adequate The increasing number of quality assurance problems, maintenance deficiencies, management review oversights and operator errors is disturbing_ The Atomic Energy Commission (AEC) itself has acknowledged that there have been a number of "near misses" in the brief operating history of commercial reactors, accidents that could have resulted in major public health incidents. An official AEC assessment of some of the operating records of the nuclear reactor program is that the absence of direct injury to the general public to date is "largely the result of good luck-"*-/ 0-r Accident A major accident in a nuclear power plant has the potential to create a catastrophe of very great proportions.

Henry W_ Kendall, Nuclear Reactor Safety- An Evaluation of New Evidence, Union of Concerned Scientists, July 171 acquired in previous studies on the effects of nuclear weapons explosions. The AEC has itself completed a secret study on the consequences of a major nuclear power plant accident; the results of the AEC investigation have recently been made public, although not voluntarily, and confirm our independent assess- ment.. The size and scale of a reactor accident is the consequence of the prodigious quantities of radioactive material contained inside these complicated machines. A typical nuclear power plant routinely contains a quantity of radioactive material that is approximately equivalent to the radioactive fallout from thousands of Hiroshima -sized nuclear weapons An appreciable fraction of this radioactive material is gaseous in form and could be easily borne away by the wind if accident- ally released by a nuclear power plant accident A release of even a small fraction of a reactor's inventory of radioactive material could depending on weather conditions, cause lethal injuries at distances up to several dozen miles from the reactor and damage to health at far greater distances. The AEC's secret study of the consequences of a major reactor accident estimated an "area of disaster. of Pennsylvania-*./ equal to that of the State Given the defects in nuclear power plant workmanship, operating procedures, and safety systems: discussed below: we believe that the possibility of a major accident involving of .•AEC`i[!tL£nal•=mer�orandu::�--fro►t Albert P :!.Ke�aheke;•-Min�eat of Steering Committee on Revision of WASH -740, January 28 19G5T. , t .4- a 4 - a catastrophic release of radioactivity into the environment is very real. The "ECCS" Controversy The "ECCS"--emergency core cooling system --is a very basic reactor safety system. Its function is to restore cooling water to the hot nuclear reactor core in the event that a pipe rupture causes loss of normal cooling water. if this backup cooling system fails-toygork effectively. the reactor core would overheat and the stage is set for the kind of major radiation release into the environment described above. It has become apparent from our technical studies that very much less than the extremely high level of diligence required has been devoted by the nuclear industry to reactor safety system design and testing. An array of design defects in present ECCS is apparent. The ECCS testing program has been narrow in scope and of a calibre very much below the capabilities of engineering science. There is a large backlog of unanswered questions about the most basic aspects of ECCS performance It is clear that adequate experiments to confirm * / Daniel F.

Moreover our study of the limited experimental data available suggests that there are a number of independent reasons why present ECCS might fail if called upon. Our assessment of ECCS effectiveness is quite widely shared by the community of scientists familiar with reactor safety technology.. The AEC's own ECCS research scientists: whose work and views we are intimately familiar with: do not believe that available information confirms ECCS effective- ness.. UCS carried out analyses of safety system weaknesses in 1971 whose consequence was to force the AEC to hold a public hearing in which the views of these AEC scientists; given as sworn testimony under cross-examination by our attorneys, could be put on the public record_ The most senior and experienced AEC safety research scientists expressed their disavowal of present AEC safety policy. And AEC internal memoranda,. which we forced onto the public record. support our fundamental criticism of AEC policy. For example: ---Dr.. Morris Rosen. then Technical Advisor to the Director of Reactor Licensing at the AEC: wrote that the "consummate message" from AEC safety analysis was that reactor safety */ Daniel F..

Na. 4034: May 5, 1972. SN system performance "cannot be defined with sufficient assurance to provide a clear basis for licensing.. George Brockett: a leading ECCS researcher identified by the AEC Regulatory Staff as one of the country's leading experts in reactor safety technology, testified that present AEC reactor safety analysis was "unverified:" "inadequate." "incomplete:" and "uncertain." -- J Curtis Haire. the man who was in charge of the AEC's primary research effort on reactor emergency cooling systems, testified that the AEC was "censoring" reports from his safety research laboratory to prevent the Congress from raising embarrassing questions about nuclear power plant safety.. Our group has received, from sources within the AEC: hundreds of AEC internal documents replete with fundamental criticisms of the effectiveness of basic reactor safety systems. For example: an AEC internal memo from Milton Shaw then head of the civilian nuclear power program to R E Hollingsworth. General Manager of the AEC: stated: **/ AEC internal memorandum from M. Rosen and R. Colmar to ECCS Task Force, June 1, 1971. *** George Brockett; et al., Loss of Coolant/Emergency Core Cooling Augmented Program Plan: August 1971 */ Testimony of J Curtis Haire, April 6, 1972: AEC Docket No. RM -50-1, Tr. 7591-7593 -7-- 0 "Although test information is available on the response of simulated fuel pin bundles to a range of emergency coolant flow conditions: no assurance is yet available that emergency coolant can be delivered at the rates intended and in the time period prior to clad and sub- **/ sequent fuel melting due to decay heat generation " In aggregate, the AEC's internal reactor safety studies and the public testimony of the leading AEC safety experts document the clear concensus of AEC safety experts that effectiveness of the importantareactor safety system: the ECCS, has not been demonstrated. Confirmation of USC Conclusions As a result of the accumulated evidence on ECCS, several groups of scientists: independent of USC, have reached con- clusions about reactor safety similar to our own: --- The Reactor Safety Committee that advises the German government (Federal Republic) has recommended a moratorium on reactor operating licenses until more research on ECCS is completed; .-The Federation of American Scientists, following a review of the ECCS issue. has identified extensive deficiencies in AEC safety research and has called for broad restrictions on nuclear power plant operation together with increased emphasis on Alternative power generation technologies; **/ AEC internal memorandum from Milton Shaw to R E •� 1DH6-1t-ing54woirthzwF@bruary 19; -%1Q72:_ P*Bt;!ithatnls&'^ffiemorandam_from Andraw JL:, Pressesky, .

Bjorn Kjellstrom, AB Atomenergi, Miljocentrumkonferens, Uppsala, Sweden, June 14, 1973.. The public, obviously, cannot accept the 'say-so' of the nuclear industry about reactor safety. Objective scien- tific evidence relating to reactor safety must be provided.. It is most noteworthy that all of the technical reviews of ECCS effectiveness by groups such as ours, who are independent of the nuclear industry, have reached the same conclusion (We have listed above all of the independent reviews of the ECCS issue that have been made public-) The existence of such strong doubts of ECCS effectiveness among scientists who have investigated this issue should warn the public that AEC safety assurances are open to serious question. Radioactive waste Storage and Other Problems In addition to major reactor accidents. the reactor pro- gram is beset by other difficulties. One of the most impor- tant of these problems involves the storage and disposal of radioactive wastes. The radioactive wastes created in nuclear power plants are extremely toxic and persistent poisons. These radioactive wastes will have to be stored ---somewhere: somehow for tens or hundreds of thousands of years. They can never be allowed to return to the envircnment- Nuclear power plants are expected to have a service life of no more than about 40 years. Yet the wastes they create will become a legacy from this transient existence to future generations for nearly geological periods of time.. According to the AEC no technically or economically feasible method for long-term storage or disposal of radioactive ••10•• *j wastes is yet available- All proposed techniques for storing these wastes are in a -research and development stage Many people have come to believe that present nuclear power plant construction plans, which imply accumula tion of more radioactive wastes, should be halted until a proven method for safely storing radioactive wastes is available_ The AEC has already experienced major difficulties in storing the wastes accumulated from the nuclear weapons production program- For example, in June of this year it was discovered that 115:000 gallons of high level radioactive waste had leaked from a tank at the AEC's waste storage **, facility in Hanford, Washington. The official investi- gation revealed that the tank had been leaking for several weeks, that no automatic alarm system alerted anyone to the leak, that the management in charge of the storage facility did not review monitoring reports that would have shown the leak, that there was no preventive maintenance applied to the */ F K Pittman, Management of Commercial High -Level Radio- active Waste, a paper presented at a summer course on Nuclear Fuel and Power Management, Mass.. Institute of Technology, Cambridge: Mass., July 25, 1972 **J Union of Concerned Scientists letter to AEC, June 23: 1973. *_**/ USAEC, Report on the Investigation of the 106 T Tank Leak at the Hanford Reservation, Richland, Washington: July 1973. monitoring equipment• and that persons with responsibilities for overseeing the storage of these waste materials had no formal training to assist them in the execution of these important responsibilities. All in all: we are profoundly disturbed by the prospects of accumulating radioactive wastes that the country does no", have the secure technology to cope with and which we are today dealing with in a supremely careless manner_ Another public safety and national security issue associated with nuclear power plants is the theft of special nuclear materials. This class of materials, which includes certain types of uranium and plutonium, may be used to construct nuclear weapons. As more and more reactors come into operation, the quantity of these materials present in the nation will increase. The theft of these materials as they are trans- ported routinely through the notoriously insecure commercial transportation network: can be used as the basis for blackmail and terrorism.. The principal obstacle that a terrorist group would face in the fabrication of a nuclear weapon is the ac- quisition of the special material from the reactor program It is within the capability of sub --national groups (e , g . , "Black September") to construct a nuclear weapon from such materials that are available in the commercial nuclear power program. Moreover: given the hazards of plutonium. it would not be necessary t•o turn this material into a weapon in order to undertake a terrorist campaign. The threat simply to dis- perse this immensely toxic material. among the most potent of -12- cancer-causing 12- cancer-causing agents, would be adequate for the terrorist purposes. (A quantity of plutonium the size of a grain of pollen is sufficient to cause lung cancer in mammals ) A host of subsidiary problems --cancer among uranium miners the public safety hazards from residues from uranium mining: emissions of radioactive materials for nuclear fuel reprocessing plants --would complete the list of public safety considerations which must be entertained in connection with a review of the risks associated with nuclear power plants. Implications The public safety problems associated with nuclear power constitute, in our view, ample justification for a curtailment in this country's nuclear power plant construction program It is clear that no public airing of these important safety issues was made prior to the startup of the present reactor construction boom.. Indeed the magnitude of the pre- sent hazards was not even fully identified. Instead. the AEC quietly worked with U.S. reactor manufacturers and utility companies to promote a dream that they mutually shared cheap, abundant: safe electric power. We, and others who have made detailed scientific and technical investigations of the nuclear !Jr The public safety problems associated with the nuclear fuel cycle, su-marized here, are discussed in a forth- coming major report from the Union of Concerned Scientists. -13 power program and who, because of our position outside the nuclear industry: are able to speak freely: have come no longer to regard nuclear power as a dream but as an ultra - hazardous technology that it is now wise to deemphasize and to avoid- U New Evidence on the Biological Mechanism of Environmental Radiation Ernest J. Sternglass Department of Radiology School of Medicine University of Pittsburgh Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania November 27, 1973 exposed to low levels of radiation from fallout and radioactive wastes from nuclear facilities have shown disturbing indications of large rises in infant mortality, cancer, and heart disease,there has been wide reluctance to accept radiation as the principal causal factor, largely because of the lack of a plausible biological mechanism that could explain the unexpectedly large magnitude of the observed effects. Such a mechanism now seems to have been provided by the discovery made by A.Petkau of the Canadian Atomic Enerqv Laboratories in Manitoba that comoletely contrary to the case of genetic damage, the dose required to produce cell -membrane damage decreases rather than increases as the dose -rate declines (Health Physics, Vol. 22, pp. 239-244, March 1972). Thus, his experiments show that whereas a phospholipid membrane can absorb 3,500 rads before rupturing at typical diagnostic x-ray dose rates of 26 rads/minute, when given at dose -rates of 0.001 rads/minute by a radioactive isotope as encountered for environmental exposures from localized fallout, cellular membranes rupture at less than 1 rad, probably as a result of indirect, chemical effects of radiation that are dose -rated dependent, becoming more efficient at low ion concentrations in the cellular fluid. Petkau concluded that the effect was probably of the indirect type involvina the formation of free radicals such as 02 in the aqueous medium surrounding the membrane, which would be expected to be more efficient at low than at high ion densities. He deduced from his results that the effect was probably enhanced by the electric field produced by the membrane • 2. • behaving like a micelle, the field increasing the number of free radicals able to reach the membrane surface and inducing an oxidative reaction leading to a weakening of the molecular structure. This large increase in efficiency with which radiation produces cellular membrane damage when it is spread out over many hours or days has been independently confirmed by measurements on blood -cell membrane permeability by Scott and his co-workers at the University of California Medical Center, San Francisco in a very recent article (Archives of Environmental Health, Vol. 26, pp. 64-66, February 1973. Thus, Scott reports that at an additional dose of only 8 millirads spread out over a period of a month, corresponding to a mere doubling of the natural background level, he was able to observe a statisticallv significant increase in the uptake of rubidium -86 through the cell membrane. Petkau's findings are further confirmed at the other extreme of very high dose -rates by recent studies published by B. Shapiro and G. Kollman (Radiation Research, Vol. 34, pp. 335-346, 1968) showing that the dose needed to affect blood -cell membrane integrity at very high dose -rates of 1900 rad/min, such as encountered at Hiroshima from the direct bomb radiation at the instant of detonation.is indeed very large, or in excess of 2,000 rads. (See enclosed plot) These results have very serious consequences for the expected health effects of low-level, protracted radiation both for the worker and the public, which may be briefly summarized as follows: (1) All present estimates of risk to large human populations from low-level radiation have been based on studies of human or animal pop- ulations exposed to external radiation at high doses and dose -rates, either diagnostic and therapautic medical bomb radiation produced in a matter of a radiation, or direct nuclear few seconds. 3• (2) The differences in risk=estimates that result from not taking dose -rate effects into account are as large as 100 to 1000 times, thus leading to a serious under -estimate of the health effects to be expected from protracted occupational or environmental radiation. (3) Since recent studies of children exposed to diagnostic x-rays in utero by Diamond and his co-workers at Johns Hopkins (Am. J. of epidemiology, Vol. 97: 283-313, May 1973) have shown that not only leukemia but all causes of death, including respiratory disease deaths, are increased by about the same factor of 2-3 at very low doses, the total health impact in terms of number of individuals is some ten times greater than when only cancers are considered in the estimate of the likely health effects of radiation. One.consequence of the importance of dose -rate effects on cellular membranes is that one would expect effects on the immune response system and on hormonal function as well as damage to the cells lining blood -vessels leading to cardio -vascular, pulmonary and other chronic diseases to be far more serious at low dose -rates than expected on the basis of earlier information derived from high dose -rate studies. Furthermore, if local tissue damage and immunological factors are indeed involved in the proliferation of cancer cells in man as has been widely suggested in recent ,years, then somatic damage to cell membranes may also show up as an increase in cancer deaths in the population. That the risk of lung cancer appears indeed to be much greater at low dose rates than at the high dose -rates of direct bomb or medical radiation is indicated by the recent studies on lunq cancer in dogs induced by low -activity natural uranium oxide dust just published by L.J. Leach and his co-workers at the University of Rochester (Health Physics, Vol. 25, pp. 239-358, Sept., 1973). As these authors point out, although no pathological effects were _I detected in the first five years after radiation exposure began, by the time 6 to 12 years had elapsed 4 out of 9 dogs had developed lung cancer. This is an incidence rate of 44% compared with a spontaneous rate of only 0.1 to 0.5%, or an 80 to 440 fold increase for a total dose of 560 to 660 rads to the lung over a period of five to ten years. This corresponds to a doubling dose of only 1.2 to 8.3 rads, compared with typical estimates obtained from the high dose -rate gamma -ray and neutron exposure at Hiroshima of some 10 to 15 rads for adults, and even higher values for the case of medical x-rays that range all the way to 100 rads. The existence of a strong dose -rate dependence of the type expected on the hypothesis that cellular membrane damage plays a role at least in some tvoes of cancers is further supported by the existence of a non- linear dose -response relation at Hiroshima that is convex upward, or a response that rises more rapidly at low total doses than at high doses when the duration of the exposure is held constant,as was the case in Hiroshima for all levels of total dose absorbed. Such a "super - linear" dose -response relation has just been reported in the latest U.N. Report of the Scientific Committee on the Effects of Radiation (Annex H., Vol. II., pp. 402-447, 1972) for bone sarcomas and lung cancer, and also in a recent article by J.W. Baum (Health Physics, Vol. 25, pp. 97-104, August, 1973). A similarly greater risk per unit dose at low doses has also recently been observed among the uranium miners in the studv of F.E. Lundin et, al. in the Joint Monograph No. 1 of N.I.O.S.H.-N.I.E.H.S.*, No. 1, 1971. * N.I.O.S.H.=National Institute of Occupational Safety and Health N.I.E.H.S. = National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences radiation may be far more serious than had been expected on the basis of high dose exposures as a result of the unexpected direction of the dose -rate dependence, both the paper of Baum and the recent findings of Bross (New England J. of Medicine, Vol. 287, pp. 107-110, July 1972) indicate that wide differences in susceptibility of different population groups would lead to a more rapid rise of health effects at low doses than expected from the observations carried out at high doses. Bross reports a more than 10 -fold greater risk of leukemia among children exposed in utero who had a history of early virus disease, bacterial infectious or allergy. Such factors act therefore in addition to the factor of age, since both Diamond's recent study and the earlier work of Stewart (Lancet, June 6, 1970) shows a much larger sensitivity for the early embryo than for the late.fetus just prior to birth, all other factors being equal. Both the unexpected direction of the dose -rate dependence and the evidence for wide differences in susceptibility to radiation among different sub -groups of the population can now explain the findings of much larger health effects of environmental radiation than had been expected on the basis that the effect would be dose -rate independent. Thus, both the rises in infant and total mortality above expected rates correlated with strontium -90 levels in the milk reported by L.B. Lave ("Low Level Radiation and U.S. Mortality", W.P.-19-70-1, Carnegie-Mellon University, Grad. School of Ind. Adm., July 1971) as well as the infant mortality rises observed by E.J. Sternglass ("Environemntal Radiation and Human Health", Proc. 6th Berkeley Symp. on Math. Stat, and Probl., Univ. of California Press, 1971, p. 145) for fallout and by M.H. DeGroot .2> • 6, • (Proc. 6th Berkeley Symp. on Math. Stat, and Probl., U. of Cal. Press, 1917) J.C. Tseng, (Thesis, Northwestern University, Evanston, Illinois, Dept. of Environemntal Engineering, June, 1972) for nuclear facilities, would be explained by the greatly increased somatic damage to critical cells controlling immune response and hormone production during intra- uterine development which is implied -by the results of Petkau and Scott. Similarly, the sharp rises in cancer rates in Japan for organs known to concentrate fallout isotopes, amounting to as much as 1200% for pancreatic cancer over a period of some 20 years following the first detonation of nuclear weapons as reported recently (Sternglass, Proc. 1972 Hanford Radiobiology Symp., AEC Symp. Series 29, "Radionuclide Carcinogenesis", pp. 254-277, copy enclosed) can now be explained in terms of the combined action of organ concentration, dose -rate effects and population susceptibility differences. In fact the observed rises in cancer among the most susceptible groups are consistent with doubling doses of the order of 100-200 millirads seen previously only for the early embryo in the studies of Stewart compared with doubling doses'of 10 to 100 rads deduced from high dose -rate exposures of adults, or doubling doses some 100 to 1000 times smaller than had been expected. These recent findings will have to be taken into account in evaluating the relative health impact of nuclear vs. fossil fuel power generation, especially since testimony presented by a number of scientists at the recent hearings held by a committee appointed by Governor Milton ShaDD of Pennsylvania+ indicated significant rises of cancers and infant mortality around the Shippingport Nuclear Reactor near Pittsburgh. + Hearings held at Aliquippa, July 311 1973 (See R.S. Lewis, "New Scientist ", Sept. 6, 19739 p. 552) 13- • 7. ' • have The evidence presented also suggests that radioactive releases may been hundreds to thousands of times greater than those reported to the Environmental Protection Agency bringing population exposures into the range of 100 to 200 mr per year, and thus explaining the rises in cancer rates infant mortality and heart disease in the arealdeclining with distance in all directions. Once again in the history of the biological effects of fallout radiation, a totally unexpected biological mechanism seems to have been uncovered that greatly multiplies the expected effects on man and all other forms of life. But if the effect of protracted radiation on cell -membranes should indeed be the dominant -mechanism whereby low-level radiation acts to increase cancer, heart, and other chronic disease so characteristic of old age then a new way may have been -opened to understand the effect of natural background radiation on the cellular aging process itself. In that case, we may be able to use the knowledge gained at such terrible cost since Hiroshima not only to prevent and perhaps end forever the scourge of cancer and heart disease that has been rising so ominously all over the world, but we may also be able to prolong the useful life -span of man on this planet. 00 c Z c< 07- N W cr J O 0ix— Z \ Q O = C3 0 W W Z cA d 'ya-----_-- Q O �� d g Z L o � 4o - Z �r. .- w Y W V 0 N • N Z Q O O O O — O W O O O O V 0 O O 0 0 — 0� In 0 a O 1 O In 0 :5 O U O Z W m J J 10 O cr oa oa a� wa �cr w 4.4 +p o Zm 0 O J w 0 �O Ln 1 O f- :5 O O Z J J Jp � a� ti � 0 � O Y 4.4 O Zm O Q Lr w cn0 a- TESTIMONY`ON THE PRICE -ANDERSON ACT August 149 1973 by Harold P. Green Mr._c',reen is a professor. of law at the George Washington University National Law Center. As an attorney for the Atomic Energy Commission in the early 1950'sq he participated in the drafting of the Price - Anderson Act and has since written extensively on the subject. His article, "Nuclear Powers Risk, Liability, and Indemnity" appears in the January 7.973 issue of the Michigan Law Review. Testimony was prepared for hearings on the Price -Anderson Act convened by Herbert S. Denenberg, Insurance Commissioner of Pennsylvania, on August 14 & 15, 1973• Commissioner Denenberg, Ladies and Gentlemen: I am pleased to have the opportunity to appear before you today to of the relationship. between the Price - discuss the important question Anderson Act and the risks inherent in operation of nuclear power plants . As one who was a resident of Pennsylvania for the first twenty years of his life, I am particularly happy to try to help Pennsylvania understand and deal with the complex question of nuclear power. In his dissenting opinion in the Power Reactor Development Co. case in 1961, Mr. justice Douglas characterized nuclear power as "the most awesome, the most deadly, the most dangerous process that man has ever conceived." While this statement involves considerable hyperbola, 1.it is nevertheless true that nuclear power is an extraordinarily hazardous • 2_ • technology. perhaps the most hazardous in our life today in terms of potential damage in the event of a serious accident. The very existence of the Price -Anderson Act is indisputable proof of this statement. The Price --Anderson Act was enacted in 1957 because the nuclear power industry was concerned about the possibility of an accident that might result in billions of dollars of liability, while the insurance industry was not able to provide liability insurance in excess of $60 million, which, incidentally, was about four times as great as any liability policy ever previously written. This circumstance led to a refusal by Industry to invest in nuclear power for fear of bankrupting liability, I the Price -Anderson Act was enacted specifically to eliminate the and liminating this "roadblock" to possibility of such liability, thereby e development and introduction of nuclear power. In order to persuade Congress of the need for this extraordinary legislation, the AEC had its Brookhaven National Laboratory undertake a study that showed, under extremely pessimistic, and perhaps unrealistic, assumptions, that a catastrophic accident in a nuclear power plant of the 1956 era (con- siderably smaller than at present) could result in 3 , 400 deaths, 43,000 injuries, and $7 billion in property damage• Once the Price - Report was hastily disowned Anderson Act was enacted, the Brookhaven by its sponsors. Obviously consequences of this magnitude are many orders of magnitude beyond those that can be visualized, or even imag fined, as resulting from any other man-made source. The Price - Anderson Act itself, on its face, contemplates a catastrophic accident that could result in liability in excess of $560 million. I do not intend to discuss all of the provisions of the Price -Anderson Act, some of which are clearly desirablebut only those directly related , to the question of the risks of nuclear power. The Price -Anderson Act requires each utility licensed to operate a nuclear power plant to carry the maximum amount of insurance available from private sources. At present, this is $95 million. In addition, the licensee is required to enter into an indemnity agreement with the AEG whereby the AEC will indemnify the licensee and any other person who may be liable to -rs of the public as a consequence of an accident causing release membe ount of the indemnity is $560 million of radioactive material. The am s the amount of in carried., or $465 million. The premiums less mi of insurance presumably reflect the underwriters' paid for the $`� 5 m the AEC a fee for the $465 assessment of the risk. The licensee pays million indemnity, but this fee bears no relationship to the risk and admittedly is considerably less than premiums for equivalent insurance, uld be. To give you an example of how this works, one if available, wo licensed nuclear power plant pays an annual premium of $250,000 recently for its $95 million insurance coverage and an annual fee to the AEC of $73,500 for its $465 million indemnity coverage. In addition, and most importantly, the Price -Anderson Act provides that all liability is cut off at $ 560 million, the sum of the insurance and e in excess of this amount, indemnity coverages. If liability claims ar -rata among claimants. Thus, the $560 million fund is apportioned pro a if an accident causes damages of a billion dollars, each person injured will recover only about fifty percent of his loss. The effect of these provisions is remarkable. Members of the nuclear power industry can construct and operate nuclear power plants totally free of any possibility that they will have one penny's worth of liability out of their own pockets. The costs which they bear as a consequence of public liability are limited to their insurance premiums and indemnity fees. It was clear in 1957 that industry would not invest in nuclear power without protection of the kind afforded by Price -Anderson. It seems clear that the same was true in 1965 when Congress extended the Act for an additional ten-year period until August 1, 19 77. It remains to be seen whether industry will now demand a further extension. Thus, the existence of Price -Anderson has been, and perhaps still is, the sine qua non of nuclear power. It is anomalous, to say the least, that members of the public in the shadow of nuclear power plants are compelled to assume the risk of a nuclear power plant catastrophe while industry refuses to assume the very same risk without the protective umbrella of the Price -Anderson Act. The mythology spouted by the atomic energy establishment is that the possibility of a catastrophic accident is exceedingly remote, infinitesimally small, because of the extraordinary safety precautions taken and the stringency of AEC safety review and regulation. The Price -Anderson Act exists, it is suggested, primarily to protect the public by making funds readily available — to the extent of $560 million — to compensate injured persons if this exceedingly improbable accident occurs. Thus, the mythology goes, AEC regulation adequately protects the public against the possibility of a catastrophe, while the Price - Anderson Act protects both the public and the industry against the enormous financial losses which may result if somehow a catastrophic accident occurs despite the regulation. It has always been recognized that one function of tort lav in imposing liability for negligence has been to deter careless activity. In recent U years, there has been an increasing tendency on the part of courts to impose liability without fault, particularly with respect to ultrahazardous activities, and it is clear that one underlying purpose has been to deter the conduct of such activities. It has been recognized that whether or not an activity is ultrahazardous, so that strict liability will be imposed, depends in large part on the magnitude of harm that may result from an accident, even if the accident is unlikely to occur. Thus, whereas our legal system, in imposing the threat of substantial liability for the ultra -- hazardous nuclear power industry, is expected to deter nuclear power activities, this salutary legal principle is subverted by the Price -Anderson Act which explicitly encourages, and indeed subsidizes, these activities. In terms of economic analysis, it is apparent that potential liability, or the costs of insurance to protect against such liability, are recognized as elements of cost by an enterprise considering whether to engage in a hazardous undertaking. If these costs incident to potential liability are excessive, the market system flashes a red light to halt the hazardous activity. The market system is, therefore, society's first line of defense against catastrophic accidents. It is only after the market system flashes a green light that regulation begins, since until that green light is flashed there is nothing to regulate. The Price -Anderson Act, therefore, may be viewed as contemplating a complete substitution of regulation for the market forces, and results in a situation in which society's only protection against catastrophic accidents rests in the effectiveness of regulation. How effective is regulation of nuclear power in protecting the public interest? Is the public interest adversely affected by the present public policy of encouraging this ultrahazardous activity subject to stringent regulation? There is no question in my mind that the AEC's regulatory structure is in fact stringent and that it is administered by an outstandingly competent and dedicated organization. Indeed, I personally believe that the quality of this regulation is such that nuclear power plants are as safe as they possibly could be, consistent with their operating at all in an economically viable manner. The problem, as I see it, is that after all economically feasible safety precautions are taken, and given all of this stringent regulation, the very existence and operation of nuclear power plants poses the real risk of catastrophic accidents of an unacceptable magnitude. Shortly after James R. Schlesinger became Chairman of the Atomic Energy Commission in 1971, he pointed out that the development of nuclear power since 1954 has been extremely rapid, and analogized it to the situation which would have existed had commercial aviation pro- ceeded from Kitty Hawk to the Boeing 747 in only 25 years. The rapid development of the nuclear power technology has resulted from a number of factors. First, the underlying technology developed entirely at government expense from 1942 until 1954 was handed to private industry on a silver platter. Since 1954, the industry has been the recipient of additional government bounty in the form of direct and indirect govern- ment subsidy, including the Price. -Anderson Act, and of intense factors have largely neutralized and government moral support. These out -weighed the normal deterrent forces of the marketplace.. Unlike the typical technology which is developed slowly through a process of trial back from the market at each stage, and error experience, with feed nuclear power has been developed and introduced without the necessity for reliance on trial and error experience, and, insofar as safety is concerned, without regard to the potential liability costs of accidents. Experience has been leapfrogged as industry has moved to successively larger and more sophisticated systems before adequately absorbing the lessons of experience with earlier generations of systems. Of course, experience to date has been good, and there have been no accidents that have affected the public. But no nuclear power plant in the United States has been in operation for as long as seventeen years. Nevertheless, they are being licensed to operate for forty years. The regulatory system accepts the technology as adequately safe because the experts have carefully and thoroughly analyzed the systems and components, run them through sophisticated computer analyses, and concluded that they will operate and behave as predicted. In short, the public health and safety is totally dependent upon the validity of predictive judgments made by the experts as a substitute for the lessons of experience. Given the inherent fallibility of mortal man, this is a slender reed on which to base reliance. Indeed, even if we could assume the validity of what the experts tell us, there are countless ways in which a catastrophic accident could nevertheless occur: for example, as a consequence of human error or idiocy, sabotage, an act of God, or some totally unforeseeable event or combination of events . The point I am trying to make was made much more effectively by the Swedish Nobel Laureate, Dr. Hans Alfven, in the May 1972 issue of the Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists. Addressing his statements to the claims of the experts that nuclear power is safe, he said: "The real issue is whether their blueprints will work in the real world and not only in a technological paradise. Fission energy advocates say that in all other technologies one accepts certain risks and that there is no way of completely eliminating all hazards. They claim to have taken all reasonable precautions to eliminate risks. What more can they do? "This may very well be true, but it is irrelevant because we are facing risks the nature of which we have never before experienced. The consequences of nuclear catastrophes are so terrible that the risks which are considered to be normal are unacceptable in this field. „F• :..: , is siV_LL io JULG v�asy sa. u iausiw .• vi "`�`�"�•� devices work as they should, if a number of people in key positions follow all their instructions, if there is no hijacking, if the extremely dangerous material does not get into the hands of ignorant people or desperadoes . No acts of God can be permitted. If all of these condi- tions are met, one has the technological paradise that he is discussing." In short, we should recognize that the presence of nuclear power plants in our society poses enormous risks . The risks are enormous because of the magnitude of the catastrophe that they can cause, even - 13 h an occurrence is extremely if it be assumed that the possibility of suc remote. My plea is not that nuclear power be abandoned, but only that the magnitude of the risk be recognized. The fact that nuclear power ot mean that we should not have nuclear involves enormous risks does n power. It may well be that our need for energy dictates that these risks be assumed. This is, of course, a political question that should be resolved through the normal political processes. Some say that this political question has already been resolved. This is true in a sense. It is clear that we have today a national policy that nuclear power plants should be built and operated, But this national policy has come about without any real public discussion or debate about the balance of the risks and benefits of nuclear power. For the better part of the past two decades, there has been a calculated effort on the art of the atomic energy establishment —'industry, the AEC, Committee on Atomic Energy — to minimi4e and the joint Congressional and conceal the risks.

Seydel presented a note from Kay Maune requesting the Com_ mission's desire to tape a 28 -minute radio show on WSUI - "Your Turn". The Commission would select its own topic for discussion. Tentative time for recording set late in January. It was the consensus of the Commission that such a program would be a good opportunity to review the problems of the Commission and their Tenant -Landlord Study. However, a January taping would not allow enough time for preparation. Requested Seydel aograo ask for another taping time. Branson suggested also be presented on KXIC. Seydel reported about his NAHRO meeting in Washington, D.C. Apparently it seems that the federal government will not release the new administration manuals for Section 23 Housing and the $140 million for new construction for another year. There are some loopholes in the manuals that need filling before the manuals are distributed.

Dear Mayor Czarnecki: IOWA CITY, IOWA 52240 ---. • PHONE: A.C. 319 338-3305 Jan. 23, 1974 Would it be feasible in future sidewalk construction to cut through the curbs at street intersections and slope the sidewalk down to street level? That is,substitute a "ramp" effect for the six-inch vertical drop from sidewalk to street level which is now the standard procedure at street or driveway intersections. This plan would benefit the users of almost any device with wheels, i.e., bicycles, tricycles, wheelchairs, and so on. It would eliminate a hazard for the very elderly and for handicapped people. Perhaps I have overlooked the disadvantages. At any rate here is a suggestion for your consideration. May we give many votes of appreciation for the continuing attention given by you and the council bo the welfare of the people of Iowa City. • IOPLAY PATENTED TENNIS COURTS • TENNIS COURT SUPPLIES • CONCRETE - ASPHALT STAINS Sincerely, • ADVISORY TENNIS COURT CONSTRUCTION TENNIS PROGRAMS CLINICS pu, yvui � F _ l y 1�•::.19.7q� �. nage t - f 1 3 � 4 f t� A � v.

As I stated on the phone, we were never informed ofmsuch a plan either while our new station was being planned, under construction, or since it opened for business in early November, 1973• Our history in Iowa City has been a per�lexing one, but we have always managed to adjust to the many temporary and permanent changes in our area, while we werelocated at Burlington and Clinton Streets. Of course, we had hoped such disruptions would be over once moved one block east. Perhaps when we are able to discuss this matter with the City Council we can make a better case for the additional complication this represents to us.

We feel very strongly that should act now to encourage the us means of transportation. energy crisis, people in the Iowa bicycles rather than the City Council e of bicycles as a We certainly appreciate the favorable attitude of the City Council towards the Hawkeye Area Bikeway plan in general and -a small number of bike lanes and routes that have been established in the city in particular. However, bicycle planning and implementation has always had a very low priority in the budget and it is time for a change. Statistics from the bicycle stores in the Iowa City area show an increase of between 30 - 50% in the number of bicycles sold over the past four years and bicycle registrations have gone from 594 in 1969 to 3,325 in 1973• These figures show that the number of bicyclists has increased enormously in Iowa City in recent years, just as it has in the rest of the nation. Bicycle racks downtown, provided by the City, are almost always filled except in very cold or wet weather, and the 5 or 6 miles of marked lanes and bike routes that do exist in the City are appreciated and used. In light of these facts we would urge the City Council to take action by: 1) Directing the City Staff to allocate time and personnel to bikeway planning. 2) Ensuring that the staff coordinate road - widening and traffic plans to include bicycles. 3) Allocating funds to be used for bikeway planning and building specifically. 4) Doubling the length of marked bike routes by January 1975. Basically, the bicycle is an important mode: of trans- portation (especially with gasoline shortages) and must be treated seriously. The expertise and initiative in planning should be coming from the City Staff and not just from an interested group of citizens. We therefore ask the City Council to direct the City Staff to plan specifically for bicycles and to establish a time table for completion of plans and routes.

The Civil Liberties.Union, committed to freedo�hand diversitany act orstatute of speech and political expression, is unhappy which denies the public access to information or opinion or denies to individual citizens any -form of political expansion. We believe Section 812.2C does both of these things. Therefore, we beg your consideration of the following alterations: 1,. Outright repeal of the ban on political signs in residential neighborhoods. 2. An amendment to regulate for esthetic and sanitation reasons the size, form, and length of time political y be displayed. Thank you for your attention. Sincerely yours, Hanna B.

Washington, Civic Center Iowa City, Iowa 52240 Dear Mayor Czarnecki: UNITED STATES CONFERENCE OF MAYORS January 24, 1974 During the�past year, both the National League of Cities and the United States Conference of Mayors have been instructed by their_ memberships to assign top priority to the passage of community development.block grant legislation. The task of consolidating and simplify- ing HUD's various community development categorical programs into a single, flexible block grant has been a subject of discussion for a number of years, during which time a variety ofproposalshave been presented. -- In 1971, the Administration called for the enactment of "Urban Community Development Special Revenue Sharing" legislation, a proposal which was changed slightly and reintro- duced in 1973 as the "Better Communities Act." Alternative approaches were produced by the Senate Banking, Housing and Urban Affairs Committee ("Community Development Assistance Act") and the House Banking and Currency Committee ("Community Development Block Grants") in 1972. Within the next few months, these same Congressional Committees are again expected to report favorably community development legislation as part of a 1972 omnibus housing bill. Throughout this long process, the League and Conference have worked closely both with the Administration and with the Congress. We have now reached a critical point in the process where a series of Congressional and Administrative actions must be taken within the next few months in order to avoid the disruption of present local programs and the demise of the new legislation. The purpose of this communication and subsequent ones of a similar nature is to help acquaint you with what we see as the options available with the Congress and Administration. Within this framework, there are clearly certain interests held by each of the parties to the pro- cess—the Congress, the Administration, and the cities --which are unachievable. At the same time, there are a wide range of interests which all of the parties share and on which there is general agreement. In the area of the unachievable, the most fundamental differences can be found in the approaches of the Congress 'and _the Administration to the matter of submission requirements and of federal review and approval prior to funding. The administration proposes to allocate funds according to a national formula with few, if any restrictions on the use of the funds by communities. On the other hand, the Congressional proposals for sub- stantive application and review procedures reflect a strong conviction that this be -a program --not to be confused with general revenue sharing --which reflects the nation's willingness and ability to achieve certain national objectives while assisting local governments to meet local community development priorities. 1620 Eye Street, N.W., Washington D. C. 20006 / 202-293-7300 -2 - For the cities, it is essential that the final legislation provide direct funding to units of general purpose local government. The process of obtaining block grant assis- tance must be simple and streamlined, with the federal government retaining some reasonable method for measuring local activities against certain broad national objectives. As the shift from the old to the new is made, current local program efforts must be main- tained and strengthened where possible. These objectives are generally consistent with those of the Administration and Congress. The job is to bring the various positions of these two parties sufficiently into harmony to produce final agreement as close as possible to the interests of the cities. It is clear that the Congress will not approve the Administration's proposed "Better Communities Act." It is also clear that the Administration will not accept a new program which appears to continue the essential elements of the existing categorical programs under another name. Pressures from city interests in support of either of these extremes will be unproductive. We must work to find the common ground on which locally -determined, federally -funded community development activity can move ahead. A major item of parallel importance to cities is the prospect for continued interim funding of the existing HUD community development categorical programs during u he remain- ing a ing transition period before the start of the new block grant, probably Y 1, 75. The Administration has chosen as its strategy for moving the Congress along on the legislation the institution of a schedule which projects the termination of the present programs by July 1, 1974. However, it now seems clear that there will not be a funded and operating block grant in place prior to this July 1, 1974. Additional funding must be provided to support the continuation of existing program efforts through FY 75 until the new program is operational. The time for concerted action by city officials is now. We recommend that you begin contacting your Congressional delegation to stress the importance of moving ahead on both the new legislation and the needed interim funding. In your discussion nto with Senaesstors, Congressmen and other interests supportive of this effort, we urge y ou following basic points: 1. The legislation should consolidate the following programs: Urban Renewal, Model Cities, Basic Water and Sewer Facilities, Open Space Land, Neighborhood Facilities, and Rehabilitation Loans. 2. Community Development block grants should flow directly to units of gen- eral purpose local government rather than to special purpose agencies as has been the case in the past with some of these programs. This direct Federal -local relation- ship should continue, regardless of the size of the community. 3. Communities should be authorized to undertake a broad range of physical devel- opment activities as well as the provision of certain supportive community services and facilities. In designing its local program, communities should take into account both national goals and local.priorities. Through the submission of simplified state- ments, communities would set for the locally determined needs and objectives and locally • -3- ding such activities as increasing the supply of low and designed action programs, inclu moderate income housing and preventing and eliminating slums and blight. should be to determine riorities within the areas aueStinged by additional q.

One of the bills that ISPIRG will lobby for is Senate File 197/ House File 315, regulating the use of beverage containers. The bill, patterned after legislation enacted in Oregon in 1972, requires a 50 deposit on any disposable can or bottle used for beer or soda pop, and bans the sale of hand -opened beverage cans. In Oregon, the bill has virtually eliminated the use of non -returnable bottles and cans. This type of legislation is desirable for several reasons. Returnable bottles use only about 1/3 the amount of energy per gallon as throwaways, because the average returnable makes 15 trips before disposal or recycling. A single throwaway beverage can takes more energy to produce than the electricity consumed by an average Iowa household in one day. A switch to returnables would mean great savings in the use of both energy and natural resources. Passage of the bill would also reduce the amount of litter along highways,which is currently costing Iowans about 20-30¢ per container to clean up. A recent ISPIRG survey along a mile of high- way near Ames found an average of one container for every 10 feet of roadway after the road had been open only 62 months. Using returnable containers costs an estimated 20-30% less for consumers than using.throwaways, and Iowans could save $12.5 million per year on their beverage purchases if this bill passes. Economic impact studies in other states indicate that the mandatory deposit would result in a net increase in total employment. S.F.197/H.F.315 is now being considered by the Natural Resources Committeeof both the House and Senate of the Iowa. legislature. Powerful opposition to the bill is building, and support is needed immediately to get this bill out of committee and onto the floor for debate. . There are several things you as an organization and as indivi- duals can do to assure the passage of this bill. First, have your STATE ADMINISTRATIVE OFFICE .P.O. BOX 1059 DES MOINES, IOWA 50311 Hon. Senator George Milligan, Chairman Senate Committee on Natural Resources Hon. Dennis_ Freeman, Chairman House Committee on Natural Resources You might also send copies to the legislators from your district, and to the ISPIRG state office at Box 1059, D.M., 50311. ISPIRG is maintaining an office in the Iowa Citizen's Action Center, E.6th and Grand in Des Moines, to coordinate information and support for the returnable bottle bill. A second important action you can take right away is to come or send representatives to Des Moines to talk personally with legis- lators about your support for the bill. Stop at the Citizen Action Center (address above) for information on the current status of the bill and how you can be most effective. Ile have more information about this legislation and sample letters and resolutions at. ---our Iowa City office, Center East, corner of Clinton and Jefferson. We will contact you in the next few days to find out what you think and what you plan to do.

CITY MANAGER January 231 1974 Representative Edward Mezvinsky 1404 Longworth House office Bldg. Washington, D. C. 20515. Dear Representative Mezvinsky: Both houses of Congress are presently in the process of "marking up" various forms of community development legislation. Both houses have received the Administration's "Better Communities Act" (HR 7277, S 1743). The .Senate version of this legislation is known as the ".Community .Development Assistance Act of 1973" (S 1744)and the House version is Chapter 1, Part A -- Community Development - of the "Housing and Urban Development Act of 1973" (HR 10036). The Admini- stration and/or the Office of Management and Budget has greatly curtailed,. through impoundment, -funds necessary to execute ongoing conventional urban renewal projects such as the one in which we are engaged in Iowa City. We were told by the Area Office of the Department of Housing and Urban Development in Omaha, in March of 1973, that any additional expenses incurred during the execution of City -University Project I, Iowa R-14, would have to be borne by the City. We have revised the financing plan for the. Project as well as changed some of the physical aspects of ,it so that we may see the Project to fruition with addi- tional local funds. One point, however, which is of great concern to us, is the amount of money .necessary for us to continue to pay relocation assistance. At the time the Project was approved, we received a relocation grant of $434,000.. Subsequent to that, Congress passed, and the President signed, the Uniform Relocation Act, also known as the "Muskie Bill," S-1. This act allows for the continuation of Rental Assistance MAYOR C 1 'I..- RRANOT COUNCILMEN RORERT CONNELL EDOAR CZARNECKI LOREN HICKERSON J PATRICK WHITE CIVIC CENTER, 410 E. WASHINGTON ST. IOWA CITY, IOWA 52210 318-351-1000 Payments for people displaced because of urban renewal activities for up to four years after displacement. Of course, this provision was not built into the original budget or financing plan for our project. Because we are now subject to the Uniform Relocation Act, it is quite obvious that we are going to need additional funds to be able to meet the requirements of the Act. Representative Mezvinsky .2 - Washington, D. C. January 23, 1974 Another provision of the Act states that the federal go arn- ment would no longer participate 100% in relocation grants, but that the local government would also have to pick up either a one-quarter or a one-third share of total relocation costs. However, a Solicitor General's opinion ruled that this part of the law did not apply to projects which went into execution prior to December 31, 1970, as we aid. Thus, it is our contention that the federal government is still responsible for 100% of relocation expenses. As usual, the HUD office in Omaha told us not to worry about the relocation grant until such time as we had expended most of the funds. This philosophy is what led us to a 50%-50% shared urban renewal project instead of the 75% federal - 25% local sharing formula for which the law provides and that this project was origin- ally based on. We are within $100,000 of exhausting the relocation grant at present. While we feel we can use this amount to make initial relocation payments, there will certainly not be sufficient funds to continue Rental Assistance Payments for the next four years. We urge you removing the lid now in execution possible towards legislation. We and are counting EC:alo • to support two courses of action. First, to support on impounded funds so that urban renewal projects may continue. Secondly, move as quickly as a resoluiton of responsible community development appreciate your efforts on our behalf in the past on your continued help in the future.

As IARCO has indicated, the market value of the present uses of the building have a market value via the market, comparison and capitalization of income methods of about $302000 whereas the land has a -value of about $38,000. Consequently we should ignore the building in arriving at this property's value. IARCO values the land at $6.50 per _square foot or $39,000 less 1000 for demolition and 'Maters values it at $6900 per square foot or $369000 and adds $2,000 for the metal garage. It is my feeling that Waters erred in adding the metal building to his land value since one is not likely to both redevelop the property and keep the metal building. Similarly I doubt that the removal of the present structures would cost the $1000 as IARCO has indicated. Nevertheless, in spite of these disagreements, I do believe that the fair market value esti- mates of $38,000 by both appraisers constitutes a valid estimate of market value. Sincerely, E.

The two appraisals are quite far apart $80,000 for Staters and $67,000 for IARCO. In analyzing the property and the appraisals it is my opinion that IARCO is closer to the property's market value than is Waters. According to the rent schedule provided me,by the property's manager, the maximum gross rental income of this property would be $11,880. Actual income has varied between $11,023 and -$11,854 over the last four years. It is there- fore my opinion that the property's income statement should be as follows' Gross Rental Income $119880 less vacancy 5q 594 $11 j296 Operating Expenses 49400 , Cap Rate { 10 Capitalized Value $ 8,8 0 Another approach on a property such as this is the gross rent multiplier. If one uses a GRM of 6 we find 11,880 X 6 = 71,280. It would therefore be my opinion that this property has a market value of $70,000. With respect to Watersappraisal, itis my feeling that gross rents are too high and the cap rate is a little low. Similarly, it is my feeling that a CRM of 6.5X is too high. Waters market approach using square foot data resulted in a $68,000. This is much closer to my estimate of market value. IARCO had its expenses too high for a property in which, the gas and electric are paid by the tenants. If the 5355 expense ratio were reduced to say 43%, the results would be more in line with my experience and would result in a higher capitalized value - one closer to $70,000. Sincerely, E.

Council met in informal session on the 25th day of January, 1974 at 11:30 A.M. in the Conference Room at the Davis Building. Mayor Czarnecki presiding. Councilmembers present: deProsse, Czarnecki, Davidsen, Brandt, White (11:55). Absent: none. Others present: Wells, Pugh, Hayek, Stolfus, Klaus, Zelenka. City Manager Ray Wells stated that the Staff would go back through the details of the Tax -Allocation financing plan and would clarify some points, discuss schedule for the urban renewal referendum and question as it appears on the ballot. The general concensus was for a March 28th election. Joe Pugh, Finance Director, advised that the staff had met with the legal bond counsel on the financing, and said that on February 5th, the Council would have the financing plan -how it will work into the debt margin and allocation process. An ordinance would define the allocation process and it,plus the tax levy would be filed with the County Auditor. Each year the Council could abate the tax levy by resolution. He noted that the assesed value of property in 1968 to be paid in 1969 would be used as the base year. Each year after determining the overall levy, you subtract the debt service and the difference is multiplied by the millage rate. This is paid into a fund to pay the $6,000,000 principal and interest. A built-in safeguard is that the fund will build to twice any given pay- ment, so there is a one-year cushion. If in the early years, operating revenues are used, they can be paid back when the fund is built up. Some observations noted were: the petition for referendum after the 5th of February; it is a policy decision of the Council to go to referendum. The following meetings were set: Feb. 5th. -11:30 A.M. Design review with Project Green and developer; Feb. 6th & 8th - contract discussions; Feb. 7th -Explain to School Board at 4:00 p.m. in CouncilChambers and hold Conference Board meeting as Super- visors and executive board of Regional Planning also meeting at the Davis Building; ,Feb. --5th-Informal 4:00 p.m. -Discussion of status of legal cases by Attorney Hayek; Saturday, 8:00 a.m.- at Library discussion, of Senate File 531 and no meeting Wed. 30th.
