April 29, 2011 Gregory B. Jaczko Chairman U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission Washington, D.C. 20555-0001

Dear Chairman Jaczko,

1 want to thank you for agreeing to come up to the Hudson VaUey Region of New York to tour the Indian Point Energy Center. More than approximately 17 million people, or more than 6%

of the population of the United States, live within 50 miles of this nuclear facility. Located just 24 miles north of New York City, the population density around Indian Point is higher than any other nuclear reactor in the country, and the safety of this power plant is of paramount importance.

Following the tragic events that have taken place in Japan, there are a number of concerns that have been raised by the communities surrounding the Indian Point Energy Center. As you work to plan your schedule I urge you meet with the local elected officials in this region, so that they have the ability to address the questions and concerns of the community with the most accurate and up to date information.

I thank you for your attention to these critical issues, and ask that your contact Ben Rosenbaum in my DC Office if you should have further questions.

Sincerely, Kirsten F. Gillibrand United States Senator
