A(Edavit of Deborah Katz
' ~
I, Deborah Katz, being duly swom, appear and state the following:
t
- 1. I live at 80 Davenport ltoad in Rowe, Massachusetts. My home lies within 17 miles of the Vermont Yankee Nuclear Power Station (VYNPS) i
- 2. I am a member of Nuclear Information and Resource Senice and the President of the Citizens Awareness Network (CAN) i
- 3. I am concerned aboot the effects of the experimental transfer of fuel at the Oyster Creek Nuclear Power Station while the reactor is operational into dry cask storage. The i
fuel will be transfered over the operating reactor vessel. It will have a direct effect on my health and safety. Since Vermont Yankee is a Mark 1 boiling water reactor as is the Oyster Creek reactor, the precedent that will be set by the process at Oyster Creek can directly effect me. In particular, I have the following concerns:
a) I travel regularly to Greenfield, MA and I3rattleboro, VT which are within the 10 mile radius of the Vermont Yankee Nuclear Power Station. I am concerned that should a fuel -handling accident occur, I and my children would be exposed to unsafe radiation levels.
i B) I am also concerned about the potentially devastating effects on my and my children's health and safety by a radiological accident at VYPS due to the movement ofirradiated finel in containment. We live in the effluent pathway of the reactor. Our family and our emironment could be permanently contaminated by such an accident.
C) I am also concerned about the movement of finel at VYPS since the Nuclear Engineer of Vennont, Mr William Sherman, announced at a town meeting in lluckland, MA that VYPS would begin dry cask storage of their I
fuel within 5 years.
1 am willing to have Nuclear Information and Resource Senice represent my interests at the hearing and during the intervention process.
