Hearing.Docket@nrc.gov Washington, DC 20555-0001 RE: Request for Hearing on Indian Point License Transfer, NRC-2020-0021 To Whom It May Concern:
I am writing as a resident within 50 miles from the reactors at Indian Point.I am most concerned about the lawless record of Holtec - the company Entergy has chosen to sell to for decommissioning the plant. They are currently in legal trouble in New Jersey for bribery of local officials. They have been banned from doing business with the World Bank for 10 years and have walked out on decommissioning sites in other countries. A representative of the company made a presentation to citizens and not one person left the room feeling confident of the ability of this company to handle the decommissioning of Indian Point is a safe and secure manner. There were too many items left out - like the lake of radioactive water under the site or detailed information about the thin walled Holtec casks that are having so much difficulty at other reactor sites. Their written report was no better. The gas pipeline that runs so near the spent fuel pools was not even mentioned as something they would have to remediate.
The fact that they submitted a PSDAR prior to procuring the license says volumes about their regard for and knowledge of regulations.
Decommissioning Indian Point is not a local matter. It concerns all of us who live within the 50 mile radius of the plant. Therefore, it is essential to have a hearing on license transfer in our region. Our County Executive George Latimer has offered you a place in our community to hold this meeting. I hope that you will accept his offer for the health and safety or our community.
Sincerely, Pat Schories
