the Commis s ion, Nuclear Regulatory Commission

'~lashingt on, D.C. 20555 Sirs:

ATTENTION: DOCKETING AND SERVICE Though I will not be able to personally appear at the hearing on the Turkey Point Nuclear Generating Station and Che proposed amend->>

ment to Units 3 and g, I submit the following for the record:

Due Co the extreme dangers and likelihood of explosions of nuclear storage sites, and the dangers of the entire nuclear fuel cycle, I urge that nuc3 ar energy be banned from the state of Florida, and other regions also.

'Ntith the explosion of the nuclear w aste storage site in the Khystym region of the Soviet during 1957-1958, I arrge you Co recommend that Florida ?gwer and Light work towards reestablishing safe forms of en rgy for generating electricity withtn. our state L

Radon, which is dis.bursed, into Che atmosphere by the nuclear industry (enclosed on nuclear industry practices from the International Agency for Atomic Energy at Vienna,, Austria) turns into alpha, beta and gamma rays according to pIarie Curie (Treasury cf Nor1'd Science, Dagobert TIunes, Editor, Philisophical Library> N.Y.); garma rays are extremely penetrating, and I can personally testify that for at least eight to ten yeas@ I have been able to detect the oddr of radiation in the atmosphere at least once every Cwo or three

weerks, though lately less frequently (though the odor persisted today briefly), and e nclose a

photograph showing radiation burns suffered by me from two after-noons.I outdoor work on September 30 and October 1, 1977. Photogryyh was taken about four days later:

The top burns show where the penetrating rays entered and exited my skin on the leg, and the lower burns are a large blotch from combined radfati;on.,

1 realise the problems faced by utility companies,,

and know that Chere is not enough coal (itself with certain drawbacks)'or us-ing that form of energy; other forms of alternatives could be d eveloped

however, and I urge the Nuclear Regulatory Commission to work towards this goal. I conserve,.

and know that many could conserve more also,.

but they think that nuclear power is endless-Chat uranium will last forever and think it safe.

Breeders, the only way that nuclear fuel could last long enough to be a solution Co the energy problem, are too undafe to use even though foreign counhries such as England and'rance have several.

You witness their massive demonstrations.

where even offic-ials in public office march ~ith the opposition to nuclear po'~er....

In Sweden Prime 'Minister Thorbjorn Falldin resi~ed over Che nuclear dispute; he knew that Sweden was sending spent nuclear fuel up the coast of Florida after entering the

>i<iami port, yet their panel~ s majority wanted to c ontinue with nuclear po~er. I hope that our of-ficials have more comprehension as to future'dan ers.

Thpn you.

WILLIAMGARNER, Alabama Anti-Nuclear Attorney ='eneral who died on January 17, 1979, will be greatly missed., DAVID CO.KY, Mide1y known environmental leader who died in an automobi1e accident on January 5, 1979. A NUCLEAR REACTOR STORAGE SITE EXPLODE) contaminatin-. a thousand square MILES in the southern 'Jral region of the SOVIET'NIOi>>, a DISASTOR which "EXPERTS" said could NOT happen, durin". 1957-1958. Reports were suppressed and location not given urt'1 revealed in ENGLAND by, Zhores Medvedev, former,Soviet scientist, who ~ives details in his book, SOVIET St.IENCE, ('~l.i. Norton, 1978}, pages 9Q-98 and Appendix II, pages 232-2g~..) The nuclear disastor oc-curred in a region whe~re nuclear reactor WASTES had been stored in shallow trench-like sites in the Ural region near Chiliabinsk and Sverdlovsk, where thousands died immediately, many more lat-er, as hospitaLs were not prepared and evacuation was delayed because of lack of any plan. The zone is heavily contaminated, being a thousand times more so than test laboratories for test-ing radiation. The two above cities are approximately 200 miles

apart, and winds carried and 'spread the severe contamination a

thousand aquare miles in a circular area; the public is not per-mitted there even today though test stations are on the outskirts. The DIRECTOR of the PORT O'IAMI has banned radioactive materials from the port following the Motorcade up Floridais east coast. It is sad that local Florida newspapers criticized the group, as they and we are preparing for a safer nation and world. These shipments trav-elled up the coast of Florida by truck and train to South Carolina for reprocessinc (Any wishing past CARP issues on this'ssue may obtain them by sending 42 F00), Last month personal friends driving south through Tennessee passed through an area near Monteagle north of Chattanooga where a truck containing radioactive materials overturned; all traffic was rerouted, and the Tennessee State Highway Patrol wrote me that there was no leakage.. The truck was drivhg from Chica".o. It is such a small amount of the total need for ener:~ and electricity which nuclear energy fills, that there is no need to RISK future life on our EARTH for this dangerous form of energy; alternative, safe forms

exist, and are waiting for a subsidized industry to turn some attention and funds to d evelopment of solar, wind, hydro-and hydrogen energy.
