'87 Mt 11 P5 :19' 13 crafton street on Gallows Hill Fi : OF HCFF. W I0t-EilhG & M-Vit Salem,Jtassachusetts 01970 BRANCH 5 March 1937 l!.S. % clear Regulatory Conmission Yashin3 ton, D.C.
20555 ro: evacuation plinning
Dear Conmissioners:
I am writing to nrotest, in the strongest possible terns, your proposal to allow utilities to formulate and substitute evacuation plans for those not sub-nitted by the states.
Apart from the fact that the states are best aware of their local situation, and are charged with protecting their cit!:enry; you must be aware that what you are proposing is tantamount to letti n "he fox quard the chicken coop - that nuclear fox whose only interest is :n m king inahrook e-noney. A case in point is the egregious proposed shrinking of the vacuation zone.
Perhaps it would be less hypocritical of you to ranat$ your commission in line with your apparent goal:
the Nuclear Industry Protection Commission.
But let us put rhetoric to one side for the nonent. Yhile I cannot pretm d to be avere of all the facets surrounding all the nuclear plants in the country, I am very noch aware of those surrounding Seabrook. You see, I used to live in Newburyport, 'fassachusetts - a mere five miles from the plant.
I know for a fact that on a given su ner's day, it can take an hour to go those five miles -- and this without the "benefit" of a nuclear accident.
I'd like to invite you to spend a sunner's day at Hampton or Sslisbury Peach, and then, as the sun starts to set, head home. Vhile you are sitting in traffic, inagine what it would be like if all the residents of that trea were D5/6 ova
s minicked 1 y a nuclaar accident and trying to leave along those sane roads.
Of corrse, ;<nbrook's owners vould hav$ you i '*11 eve t'1at no such thina conll happen: iut considerin; f."I, Chernobyl, reports of irunken and drugged con-struction workers -- not to nention the two events (in the ordinary sense of tne vord) that we know of since no power testing b yen; one can see that un oventual accid'nt is statistically n1most inevitable.
It takes no genius to uee t'iat vhat we have here in a potentially rass;vely lethal situntion.
Ihnt will you say w:Ter. auch a thing acopens?
"l 'hoo n s ? " ' 'h a t will PS',':{ s iy ?
"t ' ell, we t ried ?"
In the Teantime, we are f aced with the-plans of a group whc care for nothing het roney, who will raise electric rates 'as W
soon as is practicable and who, quite likely an i however wellneanina, will cause the a.ravest of danage.
?o not allow others' greed ud a misperception ni your nandate to blind you to the words of those who %now "the situation on the tround." Mtates *mst retain the right -- for '. hey have the obligation -- to protect their citizens.
If noney-interests are allowed to substitute for that, then you are selling us all for a handful of beans.
You will be gambling with ny life. ind t'Tose of those.around ne, over our stronlest objections.
America is not about fiefdons, no natter how big the players; it is about the freedon2 of the individual, and life is foremost among then. Think about that, too, while you head hole from our beaches.
"ou'll h,ve plenty of time.
In All Earnestness, h / ;,/ g/
