from the BOMSA BAY ATOMIC REACTOR'S NORMAL OPERATIONS The Atomic Energy Commission ( AEC) will hold a hearing on the Bodega Bay Atomic Reactor VERY SOON. The Builder-Operator of this Atomic Reactor has stated to the Commission that RADIOACTIVE IODINE -131 will radiate from the etack during normal operations.

RADIOACTIVE 10 DINE-131, a deadly substance, does not exist in Nature. This RADIOACTIVE IODINE-131 from Bodega Bay Atomic Reactor will fall on and contaminate:

Surrounding pasture land Vacation and recreation areas Drinking water Ducks and other fowl Fish, crab and shrimp Game and domestic animals When RADIOACTIVE 10 DINE-131 is taken in by man, game, domestic animals, ducks and other fowl, the digestive processes tend to treat it as ordinary IODINE and will accumulate it in the body. Concentrated RADIOACTIVE IODINE 131 will cause i

throat cancer and/or leukemia in MAN, and similar damage in game, domestic animals, ducks and other fowl. Harmful effects may appear within hours, weeks, months or year later. Once RADIOACTIVE IODINE is ab-hereditary defect. sorbed by the body IT CAN NOT BE REMOVED, and may appear in future gener as an REMEMBER--- R ADICACTIV,E IODINE-131 will be radiated from the atack of the Bode A t omic Re ac t or during n ormal ope ra tion s ---------------THER E FOR -------------- ga Bay The only true safe course is to relocate the Bodega Bay Atomic Reactor away from:

DAIRY LANDS---over 90% of the Bay Area's milk comes from near-by farms.

GAME AREAS---a greater variety of wild life than any other area in the state.

FISHING POOLS---some of the ve ry bat in the entire state.

DRINKING WATER--- local residents are dependent on near-by rervoirs.

COMMERCIAL FISHING---an import.mt source of fish, crab, shrimps ano clams.

VACATION AREAS--- close by is Point I}cyce National Park and Russian River resorts I

OTHER FOOD PRODUCTS---apples, wines, prunes, cheese and eggs.
