The spokesman said officials determined it would be quicker and more economical to build another unit there at this time i because contractors already were on the job in connection with the first unit.

and Metropolitan Edison are subsidiaries of the General Public Utilities Corp. (GPU). A GPU1 spokesman said the Three Mile Island project may cost between $350 million and $400 million by the time it is finished. He said the two GPU subsidiaries will split the cost based upon how much of the generated power they will be using. He said their cost shares have not been determined as of this time.

Asked why GPU's two other subsidiaries the New Jersey Power Light Co. and the Pennsylvania Electric Co are not participating, he replied that the units are being built specifically to help meet the power needs of and Metropolitan Edison customers. originally was planning to immediately build a second unit at its Oyster Creek nuclear-fueled station in Lacey Township, Ocean County, but WASHINGTON The Atomic Energy Commission has scheduled a public hearing on another nuclear reactor project involving the Jersey Central Power Light which serves Monmouth County and parts of Ocean and eight other New Jersey counties. This one would be built at the Three Mile Island Nuclear Station under construction on a Suquehanna River island in Londonderry Township, about 10 miles southeast of Harrisburg, Pa. The hearing will he held Oct.

"I think this is an unfair inference for bim to make, which is extremely bad publicity for a seashore resort." the freeholder director charged.

Mr. Landis replied that he did not file the suit nor make the Inference. But he said everyone concedes there are polluted waters in Ocean County, and he said he knows that an area in Barnegat Bay is closed to shelifishing. "Here again is what I term a gross exaggeration," Mr. Makin retorted.

"He talks about areas of Barnegat Bay being closed to shelifishing. Why doesn't he say that Ocean County has more bay areas open to shell- fishing than any county in the state of New Jersev? "I think a recent survey has shown that about 90 per cent of the shellfish in the' state of New Jersey are taken from the clean waters that we advertise in Ocean Mr. Makin added. Mr. Landis said the county's waters are relatively clean when compared with those in the more urbanized counties to the north.

But he said immediate action is needed to keep tSm clean. "Ocean County should be moving now and not waiting until everything is closed, as happened in Raritan Bay," he said. "The water should be maintained in a clean state, and should not be allowed to become polluted before action is taken to eliminate sewage MED A CAR TO RENT? about a year ago, and the companies hope to have the unit in commercial operation by the end of 1972. Work to prepare the way for the second unit started about six months ago, with completion slated for late 1973. The upcoming hearing, which will be conducted by the ABC's Atomic Safety and Licensing I Board, will involve plans for a pressurized water nuclear reac- tor for the second unit.

Landis added, "if the would establish a county sewer authority, that county sewer authirity does not have to go out and beg for consent of local towns." Mr. Makin said the matter has been discussed with municipal officals and "they do not feel this is an answer to their problems." Mr. Landis avoided saying whether the Clean Water Council will recommend that the state Commissioner of Health use his control over federal and state aid purse strings to block any attempt by Ocean County to go its own asked what the Conner will recommend to the commissioner the chairman replied: "It's a little premature, except that I already sensed the feeling of the members there (at the recent hearing) that Ocean County has been lax in their reaction to the problem of cleaning up the waters."

Earlier in the program, Mr. Landis said the Ocean freeholders have been "totally inactive" for almost two years, ever since getting a report recommending a single county sewerage authority- "It seems to be here that the freeholders would not like to have any responsibility," he added, "and the way of avoiding the responsibility is to say, "We're going to leave it up to the municipalities." The state official said something has to be done to clean up the waters "and the freeholders have the power to do it, and it is my feeling that they should." Mr. Makin insisted, however, that the freeholders do not have the power to force any municipality to join or participate in a countywide sewerage authority.

"If we wanted to avoid our responsibility, we could very easily appoint an authority and then walk away from it, because then our responsibility would be over. "But," the freeholder director continued, "that authority would have no jurisdiction over any community until that community showed its desire to be a part of that authority, so we would be accomplishing absolutely nothing." Mr. Makin said the only thing the freeholders can do is provide leadership, which they have been doing by holding meetings with municipal officials. "A great deal has been accomplished," he asserted. He aid a plan for a three-munwipality sewage disposal system will be presented soon to the state Department of Health, and progress has been made In other areas toward setting up several sep-arate authorities following the lines of "natural drainage basins." Mr.

Makin said a single authority would cover too large an area it would be too difficult to get all the municipalities to agree on how it should be set up. But Mr. Landis said the municipalities could be forced to cooperate by the power the state has over the allocation of state and federal aid funds. If one county authority was created, he explained, the state would not permit any state or federal funds for Bmnn knu ana Frimn Duplieatta Larot Aitertmtnt of Ltttit Fashion SOI Ctdar Bridga Avt.
