Sunday, March 03, 2019 4:45:04 PM Docket_ID_NRC-2018-0279 NRC, Hearingdocket@nrc.gov RE: Docket ID NRC-2018-0279 Pilgrim Nuclear: Consideration of Approval of Transfer of License and Conforming Amendment I am writing in deepest concerns for my family & community's health & well-being and deeply fearful you are not in any way acting on our behalf. You are FAILING THIS COUNTRY and should be deeply shamed of your COMPLICITY in protecting the corporations' whose ONLY concern is their profit and future profit and HOW TO WEASLE OUT OF ANY RESPONSIBILITY-FINANCIAL OR MORAL-to END THE NUCLEAR NIGHTMARE that continues at PILGRIM, MAKE CERTAIN THAT THE RADIOACTIVE WASTE that will be

'stored' on site for HUNDREDS or THOUSANDS OF YEARS...is AT MINIMUM, done in the SAFEST WAY POSSIBLE....HOLD ENTERGY RESPONSIBLE and NOT ALLOW HOLTEC to dodge its FINANCIAL BURDEN by going CHEAP on its design, implementation, installation &

maintainance of the well-known inadequacy of the storage casks we are being STUCK WITH...., and allowing for LOCATION OF THOSE CASKS to be knowingly placed in HARM'S WAY WITH IMPENDING (within this generation's lifetime) CLIMATE CHANGE & SEA RISE.

As a concerned citizen living within the affected area, I am writing in support of both the Commonwealth of Massachusetts Petition for Leave to Intervene and Hearing Request in Docket No. 50-293 & 72-1044 and Pilgrim Watchs in the same proceeding filed February 20, 2019.

The Commonwealth and its citizens have DEEP & ongoing financial, health, safety, and environmental concerns related to the decommissioning of Pilgrim that must be adequately addressed BEFORE that process is allowed to go forward.

I support in full the contentions, bases and facts brought forward in both petitions, and submit that:

  • There is insufficient evidence to provide REASONABLE SAFEGUARDS THRU LAW that there are sufficient funds to decommission the site, risking leaving the Commonwealth as the payer of last resort.
  • IT IS WELL-KNOWN TO THE PUBLIC THAT The NRC agrees that a shortfall in funding would place public health, safety and the environment at risk....and YET, why is it even open to DISCUSSION????
  • Pilgrim Station has a long history of poor management. and the NRC IS CULPABLE IN MY CITIZEN'S -OPINION THAT YOU MUST CONVINCE ME & MY COMMUNITY OF YOUR SINCERE COMMITMENT TO MAKING SURE THEY WILL NOT BE ALLOWED TO PASS THAT HISTORY ONTO MY CHILDREN & GRANDCHILDREN THRU THE DECOMMISSIONING PROCESS>>>SUSPECTED BY CITIZENS TO BE INADEQUATE!!
  • In order to accurately determine decommissioning costs and identify what requires cleaning up in order to protect public health, safety and the environment, WE DEMAND a thorough site analysis must be performed at the beginning of the decommissioning process.
  • Pilgrim's location is unique - all communities facing Cape Cod Bay require a clean environment, and Cape Cod Bay drains into Massachusetts Bay.
  • Previous documents do not bound environmental impact, and NEPA requires an analysis, as decommissioning is a major federal action.WE DEMAND TOTAL COMMITMENT TO OUR HEALTH, SAFETY & WELL_BEING....EVEN WHEN ENTERGY & THE NUCLEAR INDUSTRY;S WEALTH & POWER ARE AT STAKE": WE THE PEOPLE COME FIRST!!!

We look forward to a hearing required to protect our communities now and into the future.

Thank you for this opportunity to provide input into this process.

Sincerely, Lillia Frantin, my husband Herb Edwards, my family, my community.
