i Chairman Selin:
b' I am writing to you in response to the proposed construction of the
' United States' first privately owned uranium enrichment plant near two low-income communities in rural Louisiana.
I urge you to advise the NRC licensing board to deny Louisiana Energy Services' application to construct the facility in Homer, Lousiana.
l I remind you that the local communities of Forest Grove and Center
}
Springs are adamantly opposed to having the LES plant located in their l
backyard. Not only would the plant contaminate the water and air in I
that community, it is completely unnecessary.
Current DOE facilities are running at only 50% of capacity, there is already a worldwide' overcapacity for producing enriched uranium, and the cost for LES' enriched uranium is higher than for the DOE's, i
The proposed plant would also utilize technology that'can.be used to
{
produce the highly enriched uranium needed to mEke nuclear weapons.
e Given that DOE is looking into technologies that pose no such threat, I see no reason whatsoever to construct this plant.
Please take a close look at this issue before mt. king your decision.
h Sincerely, I
