Brattlboro Reformer Vedio: Request emergency shutdown of Vermont Yankee Feb 24, 2011 R. William Borchardt Executive Director for Operations US Nuclear Regulatory Commission Washington, DC 20555-0001 Subject 2.206: Request emergency shutdown of Vermont Yankee because Entergy added terrorist last weekend with their release of a public relation video detailing precious security related information of the plant to the nation and beyond.

Dear Mr. Borchardt,

The Brattleboro Reformer released last weekend Feb 25, 2011 a video from their web site detailing the Vermont Yankee make up of the control room and vital security related information throughout the plant. They gave visual cues to possible terrorist including the location all the emergency core cooling systems controls, the vital core protection system including 9-5 panel and the electric system including the location of the main controls of the emergency diesel generators.

They showed us the reactor rod dive hydraulic control units and the scam discharge volume and associated piping systems. All the terrorist would have to do is gain access the buildings... it is like the terrorist already made a scouting probe throughout the plant before the event itself.

Entergy gave vital visual cues and shortened the time these terrorist would take to do their dirty deeds.

I understand Vermont Yankee has many different barriers to security of Vermont Yankee. But it is no excuse to give the terrorist a freebie with ripping security defense in depth away from the plant. Just because Entergy has gotten themselves in a dire position with public credibility issues and a future state mandated shutdown in 2012, it no excuse to allow them to give invaluable security information away to terrorists in a quest for plant survival though this sparkling and splashy public relation video extravaganza of the control room and this safety equipment.

Most troubling was visual video recording of the north control room door. The video recorded the edge of the door... it gave the thickness of the door and the potential material make up of it. They unnecessarily gave potential terrorist the amount of explosive charge they would need to gain entranced into a nuclear power plant control room. The video gave cues to the security door card magnetic reader. It gives cues in how get past the reader anywhere in the building itself without blowing the doors.

We are right now in one of most vulnerable National Security threat period ever including the period just before 9/ 11. What about the requirements of FERC in giving out detailed critical national security infrastructure information to the public? I just think this video has made Vermont Yankee more vulnerable if attacked by terrorist and placed the whole area at increasing risk.
