Hearing on TMI may mean little
The June 5 1980 hearing before Rep Allen E Ertel drew three TMI community voices Dr Judith Johnsrud Jean Kohr and Francis Michelini to press for NRC cleanup progress Yet experts warned oversight hearings rarely drive direct policy and may yield limited impact beyond public relations The session could influence funding or legislation as Udall weighs reauthorization of the Atomic Energy Act and considers aiding residents with legal costs But officials and observers cautioned the hearings often produce few concrete results despite broad attention from cameras and the public.
