Town of Dennis P.O. BOX 1419. SOUTH DENNIS. MA 02660-1419/ Telephone: 508-394-8300 Fax: 508-394-8309 May 16, 2003 Nuclear Regulatory Commission Attn: Commissioners Office 11555 Rockville Pike Rockville, MD 20852 To Whom It May Concern:
Please be advised that the following Public Advisory Question was affirmatively voted upon at the Dennis Annual Town Election:
QUESTION 1 - Public Advisory Question:
- 1. Whereas Cape Cod is situated down wind from the Pilgrim Nuclear Power Station over 50% of the time and in danger from any major release of radiation, accidental or deliberate, but is not included in the present safety plans afforded people in the 10 mile radius of the plant;
- 2. Whereas there is no escape route for the people of Cape Cod, since in the event of a nuclear accident, the Sagamore Bridge will be closed and only one lane of the Boume Bridge will be open;
- 3. Whereas the Pilgrim Plant is highly vulnerable to terrorist attack mainly because of their above ground, densely crowded spent fuel rod pool with no containment structure which currently houses 2,278 rods in a pool designed for 880, (with more added every 18 months);
THEREFORE, SHALL THE DENNIS VOTERS ASK:
A. The Massachusetts Department of Health to provide Potassium Iodide (protection for the thyroid gland) to our Town's Health Department (in accordance with provisions of recently enacted legislation, S 2456);
Original-.. Rccikd Paper
.9 B. The Nuclear Regulation Commission (NRC) and the Massachusetts Emergency Management Agency to provide us with emergency planning including:
- 1. Immediate notification of any serious accident or abnormal occurrence at the Pilgrim Nuclear Power Station;
- 2. Designated radiologically safe shelters;
- 3. Written instructions for each residence as to how to proceed in a radiological emergency.
C. The NRC to direct the Pilgrim Nuclear Power Station to proceed in all haste to transfer the spent fuel road to the far safer Dry Cask storage.
The Dennis Town Clerk shall send these requests to: Assistant Commissioner Nancy Ridley at the Massachusetts Department of Public Health; Commissioner McGrail at the Massachusetts Emergency Management Agency; the Nuclear Regulatory Commission in Rockville, MD; Governor Romney; all appropriate state and federal representatives; and the Dennis Civil Defense Director.
