Dear :

Tuclear Regulatory Co= mission, I am writing in reference *o the restart of Three Mile Island !!uclear Station #1. I ver/ strongly feel that 24I 1 should :IOT_SE RESTARTED. The people in this area have been subjected to enough dangerous =istakes, How do you really psychological stress and radiation.

know what the effect of the various radioactive isotopes

'ahere that have been released will be on +2e people?

are your health studies on birth defects, cancers, and the various chronic diseases such as diabetes, asthma, etc. and how can you prove even small a=ounts of ionizing radiation will not have an adverse effect en people with these diseases? *What sort of baseline heath data did you have before the accident at CC2 and what data have And where in your policies you started collecting since?

to you even concern yourself with the suffering of individuals and families?

I firmly believe that nuclear power is a very dangerous technology and we do not adequately understand the effects of various levels of radiation from the 1400 differentedu-radioactive isotopes. I think the public is very cated to the risks and that far too much of =y tax coney has gone to precote the nuclear Sr.dustry.

I feel you will be adequately M.allenged and will have plenty to do just dealing with.he accidents and by the nuclear fuel cycle so far pullution generated and that no nuclear plant should be restarted and the Die risks ones operating should be pnased cut quickly.

are not worth the benefits in a country where one in five persons dies of cancer.

Thank you for considering =y opinion.
