Washington, D.C. 20505

Dear Carl:

I have received a request from a constituent for infonnation regar\\

ding the Yankee Vermont nuclear plant. HeisdebatingamovetoBernardstop, Massachusetts and is seeking some hard facts on which he can make an intelligent decision.

I hope it is possible for you to assist me in obtaining some answers.

r His questions are:

1.

Is Yankee Vernont radiating into the environment at any leve ?

2.

What is the standard safety level of radiation and how has i been detennined?

3.

Have there been any studies of the air, soil, water, and food chain supply near the plant for contamination?

=

i.

4.

In the event of an accident dat plans are there for evacuatio ?

5.

Most disconcerting is the fact that scientists seem to disagree over the significance of similar data and safety standards. What exactly is the crux of the argument?

l D

Thank you in advance for your time and effort. With my very best wishe\\s i

and warm personal regards, I am

{

Sincerely yours, i
