6 c: CA, Submitter's Representative: self Organization: individual Government Agency Type: Federal Government Agency: NRC General Comment Last month, Southern California Edison requested a license amendent with a "No Significant Hazards" consideration that would allow it to re-start Unit 2 at the San Onofre Nuclear Power Station at 70% power. Take action to keep San Onofre shut down now.
Both reactors have been shut down since January 2012 when a radioactive leak led to discovery of extensive damage.
Though Edison has tried to minimize the damage of Unit 2, a September report revealed that its damage is nearly as bad as Unit 3 and more than 400 times what is normal for new steam generators in the entire country. Even Edison's own consultants have stated that if Unit 2 is restarted, another leak could be expected within months.
No significant hazard? According to a 1982 NRC study, a meltdown at one of San Onofre reactors could cause 130,000 prompt fatalities; 300,000 latent cancers, and 600,000 cases of genetic defects within 35 miles of the site. Since then, the population in the area has increased substantially with over 8 million people living within 50 miles of the reactors.
San Onofre must not be allowed to restart, and must have a public adjudicated license amendment hearing with testimony from independent experts before any decision is made.
