Congress Aims for Better Ties With CIA After Casey
Senate Intelligence chair Sen. David Boren says relations with the CIA may improve now that William Casey has resigned. He comments as Reagan aides press Congress to continue funding Nicaraguan rebels and as a push to curtail funds grows amid Iran arms sale disclosures. Boren notes Robert Gates differs from Casey and may avoid dual roles. He questions Stokes proposed covert action notice rules but warns rules alone cannot prevent evasion. Separately, Southern Air Transport bought two cargo planes with funds from a Panamanian account, raising questions about CIA-linked supply lines to the Contras.

Feds weigh rule to start nukes without local emergency plans
NRC staff proposes a rule to allow startup of new nuclear plants even if local authorities refuse offsite emergency planning and utilities cannot guarantee resident protection. The rule targets Seabrook in New Hampshire and Shoreham on Long Island, amid opposition from governors Dukakis and Cuomo. Rep. Markey denounces the plan as an outrage while NRC officials acknowledge controversy.
