[External_Sender] NO 40 year permit for westinghouse As a resident of Lower Richland and an organizer for the National Sierra Club, I have been working to inform my neighbors to write, call and email The Nuclear Regulatory Commission to tell you not to give Westinghouse a 40 year permit.
As you well know this is an Environmental Justice Community (Lower Richland) that you and others in the Federal Government have written us off as COLLATERAL DAMAGE. To give Westinghouse a 40 year permit would be condemning us to early death or major health issues if we get the virus and survive it. We are more likely to catch the virus because the organs in our body have been weakened by exposure to air, water and soil pollution that Westinghouse and other polluters located in Lower Richland have released over the years.
The building that Westinghouse operates in is over 50 years old and sits on heavily contaminated soil and groundwater.
People who live in close proximity to Westinghouse fear contamination of their drinking water wells. This facility has a poor safety record and over the years instead of getting better it has gotten worse. You (NRC) have said that you expect the plant to continue having spills or other accidents in the future.
Would you give Westinghouse a 40 year permit if you lived where I do? That question I am asking is as ONE HUMAN BEING TO ANOTHER.
