Dear Honorable Margulies:

Treasurer T r.nc. E. smoi.,, Esq_ I recently became aware that in official testimony cau =' before the Nuclear Regulatory Commission, LILCO and the Fran Echorn Nassau Chapter of the American Red Cross have committed omnci c** the North Merrick school facilities, along with 52 other school districts in Nassau County, to a LILCO plan of evacuation in the event of a radiological accident at the Shoreham Nuclear Plant.

The North Merrick School District has not been contacted regarding this matter by either the Red Cross or LILCO.

Please be advised that the North Merrick Union Free School District has not entered into any agreement with the American Red Cross or LILCO to serve as a relocation center, or as a decontamination and monitoring facility for a Shoreham emergency. Any such agreement would have to have been approved by the North Merrick Board of Ed-ucation, and no such approval has been granted.

The North Merrick School District did agree to allow the American Red Cross to use school district facilities for a mass care shelter in the event of a natural disaster, but that agreement does not grant the American Red Cross or LILCO permission to use our facilities as a relocation center, or as a decontamination and monitoring facility, pursuant to LILCO's proposed plan to deal with a radio-logical emergency at Shoreham.

I am appalled and outraged at the misrepresentation of the Red Cross and LILCO.
