2542 3219 i District 9 est in a 4.500-acre tract on Delaware Bay in Greenwich Township, Cumberland County. The contract is with Overland Realty a wholly owned subsidiary of the Atlantic City Electric Co. At the time, the tract was described as a potential site for nuclear-fueled generating stations. Public Service and associated companies are building a two-unit nuclear power plant on an artificial island on the Delaware River In Salem County. And, as a result of a U.S.

Atomic Energy Commission staff report unfavorable to building two more nuclear units on New-bold Island, south of Trenton, Public Service has decided to build those units on the Sal-cm site. The floating unit concept involves building nuclear reactors on huge barges and then floating the barges to the selected site. A large breakwater for the site off Ocean County is planned for enclosing the floating units. The total cost of the project has been estimated at $1.4 billion. Public Service it awaiting federal and state regulatory approvals for its offshore project.

Among other things, the state must approve a riparian grant for use of the offshore site. The timing of today's announcement two days after the gubernatorial election indicates Public Service is proceeding with a certain amount of confidence From Tage 1 for nuclear plants. In announcing his company's decision to buy two more, Edward R. Eberle, chairman of the board of Public Service, said: "These units may be placed in bays, rivers, dredged land areas near any navigable body of water, or the ocean. Early announcement is being made to give sufficient notice to the public and various regulatory agencies." Under the present schedule, the units destined for the site off Ocean County are to be in operation in 1980 and 1981.

The second two were ordered for operation in 1985 and 1986. Mr. Eberle said operation of the units would lessen Public Service's dependence on foreign fuel imoorts. "Each unit this size will eliminate the need to burn approximately one million barrels of oil a month," he said, "and will have a positive effect on the nation's balance of payments." The Jersey Central Power 4 Light Co. and the Atlantic City Electric Co.

have each contracted for a 10 per cent interest in the first offshore nuclear project, but are not at this time parties to the second proposal. The Public Service spokesman said there will be discussions with both and Atlantic City Electric regarding the possibility of bringing them into the second project. The spokesman said the decision of where to place the two additional units may be at least a year away. Mr. Eberle's statement indicated the company may be thinking in terms of a Delaware Bay site rather than of another site in the ocean.

Last April, the state Board of Public Utility Commissioners approved an arrangement under which Public Service had contracted to pay $7 million for an 80 per cent inter air flights 10 per cent. An order to lower federal agency thermostats and forbid the 500.000 federal vehicles from being driven faster than 50 miles an hour except in emergencies. A recommendation to the Atomic Energy Commission to speed the licensing of nuclear power plants and an order to the Transportation Department to give priority processing to grant requests for purchase of mass transit buses. Congress Reacts To Crisis Plea WASHINGTON UP) -Congressional leaders have promised prompt action on most or all of the energy saving measures requested by President Nixon in his address to the nation. Senate Interior Chairman Henry M.

Jackson said his committee would hold public hearings on emergency legislation today and would report a bill out by tomorrow. Senate approval could be expected next week, Jackson said. On the Houseside, Democratic whip John J. McFall, predicted action on the President's proposals before the December recess. "If he wants a bill, we'll give him a bill," said Rep.

Torbert H. Macdonald, chairman of the House subcommittee on power. In his address last night, Nixon accused Congress of failing to act on any of the energy measures he had sent to the Hill. The President said it was now "imperative" that Congress pass legislation establishing year-round Daylight Saving Time, authorizing relaxation of clean-air standards, the tapping of naval petroleum reserves and giving the government power reduce speed limits nationwide and restrict working hours. Crisis Plan WASHINGTON (AP) -Here at-a-glance are President Nixon's legislative proposals to conserve energy.

TRANSPORTATION Allow transportation agencies to adjust carrier schedules and service points after summary hearings. Lower speed limits on the nation's highways to 59 miles an hour. POWER Open the Elk Hills Naval Petroleum Reserve in California to increased oil production. Impose "energy conservation fees or taxes," perhaps on the consumption of natural gas or the excessive use of electricity. Authorize the Federal Power Commission to suspend price regulation on new natural gas.

Authorize the Atomic Energy Commission to grant without public hearings tern-. porary operating licenses lasting up to 18 months for atomic power plants. TIME Extend Daylight Savings Time throughout the year. POLLUTION Allow the Environmental Protection Agency to exempt for one year power plants and factories from air and water quality laws on a case-by-case basis. Exempt such federal action from the National Environmental Policy Act, which requires prior preparation and review of environmental impact statements.

BUSINESS Curtail outdoor electrical advertising and ornamental lighting. Reduce commercial operating hours. RATIONING Develop standby plans to ration gasoline and home heating oil if necessary. 1 9 133 117 105 141 264 207 155 316 335 277 248 355 2- 1156 621 892 890 3217 1942 2636 2543 7926 3727 7012 4600 ea 11083 5412 9328 6843 Atlantic Highlands 1252 490 810 953 109 141 73 164 Colts Neck Twp. 1186 814 664 1380 104 64 74 89 Eatontown 1688 699 1053 1322 368 232 270 318 Englishtown 138 95 92 140 2930 1439 3171 1733 Fair Haven 1551 537 676 1433 2230 1289 2037 1455 Farmingdale 147 134 72 211 7017 3763 5661 5016 Freehold 1971 701 1378 1387 451 371 364 411 Freehold Twp.

Home heating oil, jet fuel, diesel fuel, kerosene and propane gas already are under mandatory federal allocation controlling their distribution at the wholesale level. Love said mandatory allocation would be extended soon to all petroleum products under existing presidential authority. Nixon's action and requests for new authority were brought on during recent weeks by the Middle East war and the Arab nations' decision to cut off oil to friends of Israel. "We have an emergency now," Love told newsmen yesterday. "The potential of real economic disruption does exist," he said.

Explaining the urgency of the administration's requests, Gov. Dale Bumpers of Arkansas, one of those briefed by the President, said: "I think the people of this country don't want to be blackmailed and don't want to be dependent on Arab oil." Nixon ordered immediate steps already within his power, urged legislation to grant new powers, and proposed what he called "Project Independence" to get the United States moving under its own power by 1980. The immediate steps taken by Nixon were: A public appeal to conserve energy. Homeowners were asked to lower thermostats 6 degrees and businesses were asked to achieve the equivalent of a 10-degree thermostat reduction by reducing working hours or Air Codes Are Eased Bv Cahill From Page 1 ins; of something will have to happen." Gut he contended the emergency regulations" will make it less likely. The regulations will last from mid-November to mid-March and do not require legislative approval.

A spokesman for the oil industry contended Cahill's decision vindicated the industry's contention that the fuel shortage was real and not manufactured by the major refiners and distributors. Among the other plans and proposals by Cahill were: The possibility that the speed limit on state roads would be lowered to 50 miles per hour. A request to Congress to reinstitute daylight savings time to provide an extra hour of light that would help reduce the need for lights. And if that fails, the possibility that state employes would be required to begin their day earlier and finish earlier. A chance that temperatures could be lowered to 60 degrees in state buildings, elimination of nonessential outdoor lights including those which illuminate the State House dome at night and an order to turn off every third light in state buildings.

Encouragement of greater use of car pools by state workers to reduce the number of vehicles on the roads.

He also, thanked the news media for the way they covered his campaign. "You didn't always say what we wanted you to say" but he said he thought the coverage had been fair. He also said he thought the media "had been an essential part of getting this campaign to the people." Asked whether he had any new thoughts on tax reform for the next four years, Byrne responded with a laugh, "The future is no more foreseeable today than it was before," he said. His Republican opponent, Rep. Charles W.

Sandman accused Byrne during the campaign of planning to im-' pose an income tax. Byrne had said the state did not need such a tax "in the foreseeable future." As for his relations with Sandman. Byrne said his opponent was "very gracious to call me" election night. "I told him I thought we fought hard on the issues but we kept it clean. I respect him for that." Byrne also said he thought some of his positions had been misrepresented on billboards and he said the last-minute attempt by anti-abortionists and some church groups to picture him as favoring abortion "could be called dirty." But he absolved Sandman of any blame.

"I've known Giarlie Sandman since 1955 and I consider him a personal friend," Byrne said. Asked about legislative priorities, Byrne mentioned strengthening drug laws to provide life sentences for pushers of hard drugs and liberalized voter registration laws to permit citizens to register by mail.

Byrne said it would be "meaningful to. have the cooperation of both houses of the Legislature." He also indicated he intended to play some role in selecting legislative leadership.

"I hope my role will be a full role, that there will be discussions." He said the leadership would be selected by the Legislature itself, "but I hope they'll chat with me." The governor-elect said he would appoint a committee in the near future to plan the transition between the outgoing Cahill administration and his own administration.
