Mount Horeb, WI, 53572 Email: sunlightrising@gmail.com Phone: 6083343515 General Comment Point Beach and all nuclear plants have routine radioactive releases that have adverse health consequences; and the public should be able to go to the Point Beach web site to obtain accurate information about all radioactive releases and other major safety information, but this info is missing-in-action.

It is unscientific to be silent about any adverse consequences, including those that are routine, that the industry considers acceptable, and that the NRC considers acceptable, but yet when these consequences are overlooked as routine, the full consequences are not properly weighed in their total cumulative numbers.

There are 65 US nuclear plants that have routine radioactive releases from cooling water intake and waste water discharge sites, including Point Beach. Federal regulations permit these radioactive releases. The public remains insufficiently informed around Point Beach that it doesnt take an accident for Point Beach to release radioactivity into air, water, and soil, as part of its everyday routine operation.

Why arent these permitted radioactive releases found as routine information provided for the public on Point Beachs web site, when these are added burdens given to neighbors living around nuclear plants?

Point Beach gets an F for failing to inform the public about any disadvantages, and behaving as if it only is an asset. Point Beachs information to the public is untrustworthy information.

Point Beach should have a moral obligation to inform its neighbors of the increased daily radioactive hazard in the air or water or soil, regardless if the release is routine or accidental. The public has a right to know the hazards to which it is exposed.

The EIS must incorporate that Point Beach provide the public with accurate information and data of its radioactive hazards, evacuation plan, and complaint process for adverse health impacts on its website.

The most rational place for the public to go for information about Point Beach's leaks into groundwater, SUNI Review Complete Template=ADM-013 E-RIDS=ADM-03 ADD: Phyllis Clark, Bill Rogers, Mary Neely Comment (127)

Currently that information appears to be missing-in-action, when it should be readily available on-line and readily transparent and readily accessible in layperson details as well as for academic and scientific thinkers.
