Dear Molly Mattison,

Law Clerk Atomic Safety and Licensing Board Panel Nuclear Regulatory Commission molly.mattison@nrc.gov (301) 415-0181 Thank you for allowing to speak at oral limited appearance statement on Monday, September 23, 2019, regarding the license amendment request made by NextEra Energy Seabrook, LLC, (NextEra) concerning the operating license for Seabrook Station Unit 1, Thank you for submitting my written statement to the AS&LBP https://www.nrc.gov/docs/ML1922/ML19220B091.pdf I am Submitting a copy of the Speech Brian Campbell gave to the AS&LBP on Monday, September 23, 2019, regarding the license amendment request made by NextEra Energy Seabrook, LLC, (NextEra) concerning the operating license for Seabrook Station Unit 1, THANK YOU.

Thank you, my name is Brian Campbell and I am a US NAVY VET, Ecomodernist, and BSEE who Studied Utility and Renewable Energy at UMass Lowell. What is the Most Dangerous Nuclear Reactor?" Answer, the one that is NOT Built like Seabrook 2 or the one prematurely closed like PILGRIM NUCLEAR. Why, because their potential Electrical Generation (EGEN) was replaced by Fossil fuels. Nuclear Power is the Safest method of EGEN including Renewable Energy (RE).

Anti-Nuclear, Douglas Foy, former president and CEO of the Conservation Law Foundation, led the fight in court to shutter the Seabrook Project. Seabrook 1 was built, but 22%

completed Seabrook 2 was canceled. This, and other lawsuits, doubled the Cost of Seabrook. Thirty years later, Foy says Seabrook 1 needs to stay up and running,

recognizing its emission-free generation.

Public health and environmental scientists at Harvard studied the emissions from Brayton and Salem Coal plants in 2002. They concluded that Salem Harbor was responsible for 30 deaths, 400 emergency room visits, 2000 asthma attacks and 50,000 incidents of upper respiratory symptoms per year. Had Seabrook Unit # 2 been completed in the Mid 1990s, its No emission, 1246 MW, Electrical Generation (EGEN), could have displaced and closed coal-burning Salem Harbor Power Station, and still operating Merrimack Station in Bow, NH in the 1990s.

Anti-Nuclear, C-10, Ally, NH State Representative Peter Somssich supports Granite Bridge pipeline proposal by Liberty Utilities to build a connector pipeline from the Manchester area to Exeter. Rep. Somssich sees more Gas as a bridge to Unreliable Renewables. Anti-Nuclear, MASS Sierra Club calls more pipelines A Dirty Bridge to Nowhere. Thus, Reliable, emission-free Seabrook Station Nuclear Power providing 57% of NH s, total Electrical Generation can be replaced by Gas infrastructure and extra emissions.

Remember the 2018 Merrimack Valley gas explosions?

This is what Massachusetts Taxpayer supported C-10, and similar groups are really advocating. NH and New England needs More Nuclear Power, not more Gas to really reduce emissions.

Thank You Brian Campbell 285 Pearl Street Cambridge MA 02139
