But by any conception, when it comes to nuclear power generation, nuclear waste, and especially nuclear radiation everybody is a stakeholder because our sources of water, food and the health of our bodies are at stake. This includes the animals and plants. Their bodies and their sources of nourishment, air, water, food, have all been, and will continue to be affected by radiation.

But special vulnerabilities must be attributed to the young of all species; and this has been particularly well-studied in humans. (BEIR VII: https://www.nap.edu/catalog/11340/health-risks-from-exposure-to-low-levels-of-ionizing-radiation) The Gender and Radiation Impact Project https://www.genderandradiation.org/ went forward with the data from BEIR VII to show that human women are more vulnerable than men, that the young are more vulnerable than adolescents who are more vulnerable than reference man. But, in fact, all biological organisms have a stake in what is done with nuclear projects. Shrinking stakeholder to indicate those who have a specific monetary stake in projects is simply nonsensical.

Thus, my suggestion is that you increase the Environmental Justice scope of this EIS by not using the word stakeholder unless it is defined to include all biological organisms in and around Point Beach Nuclear Power Plant. In the presence of radiation, stakeholder has no unique meaning.
