Dear Commissioner Selin-
<g8 As 'a resident of the Great takes Basin, I am wnting to express my opposttK>n to the NRC's plan to store "high-level" irradiated fuel on the shores of Lake Michigan using the VSC 24 dry <,ask storage containers: Tests done to date on these containers may seem adequate to NRC off,cials, but they are not to those of us living in the Great Lakes area. If the NRC permrts the loading of these casks wrth irradiated fuel, you will be doing ething short of an "experirnent in situ," with the largest body of fresh water on 1:r Planet at risk if your experiment fails.
Objections to the use of the VSC-24 ::a:As need to be analyzed thoroughly, and in public. For that reason I call upon the NRC to convene formal public hearings on the VSC-24 casks to address formally the charges against its use. Should formal hearings not be granted, my next letter will be to my representatives to -
Congress, urging them to cu.vene heanngs as part of the upcoming NRC authonzation proceedings, and to grea ;f reduce annual funding to the NRC, since it is no longer acting to protect the health and safety of the public and the i
environment, and no longer " regulating" in behalf of the public it is supposed to serve. Thank you.
Sincerely, hM h &
