L A letter and a flyer from the Vermont Yankee Decommissioning Alliance has recently come to my attention.
I am writing you at this time to express my deepest concern.
As with any literature that takes either an unpopular, negative or alarmist stand, there is a tendency to discount it in some fashion,but reading it over again, I could come to n&cether conclusion th6I if even a part of the flyer" were accurahe,[l'tisof.d5Spconcern.
Therefore,I jbin with the Vermont Yankee Decommissioning Alliance in requesting / demanding a full investigation, open to the public into the safety and management of Vermont Yankee Nuclear Power Plant.
Ifd.Y.N.P.P. has nothing to hide, it l
shouldwelcomepublichyringswiththeNRCandindependentexperts.
.Certainly after Three Mile Island, nobody can say that nuclear
. power.is predictable._as safe as was thought before or anywhere neah l.
Trtrblem-fre e. -
- t The probleros of the plant are a real concern to me, but another l
concern is the polorization of people around the issue.
The lack of public information, accurate information, the use of propaganda has caused a strange tension in people in Vermont and New Hampshire. Somehow what has developed is a mind-set that if one is against or even questions nuclear power it is an unpatriotic act.
This is fueled by our politicians, community leaders and others.
How pathetic it is that we are dividing into camps over something that if it malfunctions seriously will be equally a hazard to the ones for it and pointing fingers A$1 those against.
I call upon you to consider this request seriously.
