Dear Cornissioner Iradferi:
f Last week we learned that !.'ot. 2d. has plans to release Krypton from the plant. What is Erypton? Uhat will it do to myhhildren? Why does it have to be released here? Haven't we had enough? An I supposed to believe that they will actually release it at the rate they say they will?
I believed, for exanple, that they wouldn t release any water into the i
Susquehanna without first testin; it, 2nd they did it anyway. Eernan Diechtap said, 'ilf it's necessary to convince the public, I'll drink a class of it be-fore it ;oes into the river." (York Daily Record, June 19, 1979) so far I hwen't heard any reports of his being on site tbpin(; a.iraple of the recently re-unle sh d A
leased 4,000 ;.llons.
Havs ycu?
Eow could that dunping possi?:ly hr.ve hr.rpenea anpr.y? He knew about it tuo days before it was on tae news. Tas the l'RC nware of it?
I realize you storpea i..t.a from dunping any more, but what about the 4,000 gallcc.s c'.rer.dy in the river? Should we fool safe eatin; loce1 neat taa. u ink'.nj the wator?
But here is what ren11vEcts my goot,*' Arc i%cy oing to be fined or pe cal-ined in any way whatsoever? I'll bet not. They have already subjected us to one outra;e after a..dther and they just keep etting awe.y with it.
What are they.
(;oin; to have te do before conchody stops then?
Should I take ny childron away from 1:idllotcwn when the clean-up of Unit II begins? D3 '2 7.Y KFC'.7 UHAT TII2Y AR2 DOII:0? If'we were to answer that aucation i
[
based on pactpo::for.i:anco, I do not like to think about it.

r we going to inadvertantly find out about "cinor errors" after they have happened?
This brings to nind the question of all of the accidental dosage of radiation that we have already received fron):et. Ed.
Nobody seens t'o under-stand this nor are ce ever able to get a clear explanation anywhere. Could you please explain to me in layman's terms about the amounts of reported dosage and their cumulativ_e effect? For example, this Krypton that they're talking ra$out releasing is going to (supposedly) be eaitted at a rate of "one =illirea f
k per day" and soce of the readings at the tine of the accident rore 100 millirems per hour. Doesn't that mean that in two day's time one would in fact receive I
two millirens of Krypton or in two hour's time, 200 cillirens of whatever?I really hope you can clarify this for me.
On the brighter side. Finally. In last Sunday's Patriot (July 28) there aprecred an article about the URC.
In the text cention was nade of you and e
Connissioners Gilinsky and Ahearne and your stance on keeping the plant closed atlleast until such time as the hearings are completed..In the midst of all of the post-accident turmoil which constantly surrounds us, it sonetires seems as if the proverbial deck is stacked against us.
It is more conforting than you can imagine that somebody is considering our well-being. Thank you.
Sincerely yours, M
