Dear Mr. Margullos,

1 As citizens living on Long Island, and in particular, Nassau l County, we are dooply concerned about the health hazards that throaten our own and our children's futuro. For example, our drinking water in contaminated and we are exposed to contaminatien frem hundreda of to ic waste dumps on tho Island.

Nansau County han one of the highent cancer rates in the entiro country. Wo aro living on the brink of major environmental catastrophe which will affeet a population of well over one million, thron hundred thounand in Nasnou and over two million, nix hundred thousand in both Nassau and Suffolk Countion.

One of our major health concerna in the potential for mansive radioactive contamination on Long Island in the event of a radiological accident at the Shorohan nucionr power plant. The potential for auch an accident is no great, we believe, that all offorts to open the plant must be stopped until the safety of evory Long Inland ronident can be absoluto1y guaranteud. Wo know of the growing number of cancer deaths and illnessen af fecting the people around the Three Milo Inland nucicar power etation since the radiological accident in 1979. The une of the Nannau Votorans Memorial Colincum in LI LCO'n ovacuation plan endangern our safety by allowing the possibilit y of an accident at the l Shoreham plant to happen and to affoct un in the following wayn: 1

1. We will be victims of radiological poinoning just en the Throo Milo Inland ronidento are
2. We will be affocted by the influx of an entimated half a million people fleeing 0506210274 850619 i PDft ADOCK 05000322 I Q PDN l l
