NRC-2013-0063-DRAFT-0046 Comment on FR Doc # 2013-10792 Submitter Information Name: Eleanor Fox /Z/:,,_._ , Address: 406 E. 80th St.New York, NY, 10075 General Comment With 20 million people living within a 50 mile radius of the Indian Point plant, it is disgraceful that 20 years have gone by without Entergy complying with established fire safety regulations.

The NRC shouldn't even consider granting Entergy an exemption.

• The NRC should deny the exemption and require Entergy to comply with the regulations, which were written to protect the plant and the public from the very real risk of a fire that could lead to a meltdown at Indian Point.-The NRC failed to do an Environmental Impact Study (EIS) of the risks and impacts of granting the exemption, including looking at alternatives, such as replacing the insulation.

At a minimum the NRC must conduct a full EIS, look at all alternatives and allow time for public comment.* The NRC should hold a public hearing in the vicinity of Indian Point to fully explain its exemption process, and take public input on Entergy's failure to comply with fire safety regulations that were established over 20 years ago.SUNSI Review Complete Template = ADM -013 E-RIDS= ADM-03 Add= D.
