Covert, MI, 49043 Email:anngoldenscott@gmail.com Phone:6308420445 General Comment My family first came to the community of Palisades Park in 1956 when I was only 4 years old. It is a community was founded in part by renowned naturalist Arthur Quick. Our community members have for over 100 years respected the land, the shoreline and of course beautiful Lake Michigan.
Then in 1967 construction began on the Palisades nuclear plant which then started producing power in 1973. The Palisades plant has not been a good neighbor to our community.
There have been numerous well documented safety issues over the years putting our community and surrounding communities and frankly, the world at risk.
Over the years, our community has suffered serious health issues including cancers that have occurred at a rate significantly higher than the general population - that has escaped attention due to homeowners having second addresses spread across the country - we are funding the research and will soon have documentation of the extraordinarily high level of cancers typically connected with poisoning from nuclear wastes.
There are well documented safety issues and actual accidents that have potential for catastrophic outcomes. Spent nuclear fuel that is stored in cement casks precariously perched on fragile, easily eroded sand dunes. all of this - alongside the World's second largest fresh water supply. YOU WILL PUT THE WORLD AT RISK.
The plant cannot produce and sell power without being subsidized by hundreds of millions of dollars of 7/26/24, 6:07 AM blob:https://www.fdms.gov/d75ef952-56c2-48af-9331-804c2fc98141 blob:https://www.fdms.gov/d75ef952-56c2-48af-9331-804c2fc98141 1/2 SUNSI Review Complete Template=ADM-013 E-RIDS=ADM-03 ADD: Laura Willingham, Mary Richmond, Antoinette Walker-Smith, Marlayna Doell, Mary Neely Comment (43)

taxpayer dollars, our money. Recognizing both the economic and safety reality, Entergy shut down the plant and sold the plant to Holtec for decommissioning.
And now the NRC has a decision to make. Either bend established NRC safety requirements and allow for the first time ever a nuclear power plant to be reopened after being closed for 3 years. Or, do the right thing and close the plant as was the plan when sold to Holtec three years ago.
