- Carl, VY Power Uprate is a licensing issue that is being handled by NRR. Greg is brokering items. I think things like this are going to the VY PM for public response.

Vermont Yankee Uprate I am writing to express my extreme concern with the planned uprate of the Vermont Yankee facility in southern Vermont. I am a resident oNaI nearby town though in a different state. Our town is in the evacuation zone in case of an emergency at the plant. I feel it to be a gross disregard for public safety to even consider granting Vermont Yankee with this uprate. The facts are:
04G
- Vermont Yankee at best has a questionable safety history
- The proposed uprate would be the highest ever granted by the NRC
- Vermont Yankee's safety equipment is grandfathered so that even though there have been technological advances which could greatly improve safety, there is no plan or requirement to improve the facilities I feel particularly strongly about this matter because, as a resident in the evacuation area, problems with the plant might require me to pick up and leave a town that I love, possible for a time of numerous years.
The fact that this decision to uprate could occur without so much as an independent safety assessment terrifies me. I will be unable to attend the public meeting on the matter (3/31 in Vernon, VT), but I refuse to stay silent about this issue. I feel that a plant in Vermont has no right to put residents of Massachusetts (as well as its own) in jeopardy by uprating a facility that isn't even currently operating at 100%. Please do not grant this aging facility its requested uprate for the sake of safety of MY TOWN if no other reason.
Sincerely, Jared Libbb, I?
