PUBLIC SUBMISSION As of: 7/30/24, 6:54 AM Received: July 29, 2024 Status: Pending_Post Tracking No. lz7-9f2f-fcfk Comments Due: July 29, 2024 Submission Type: API Docket: NRC-2024-0076 Notice of Intent to Conduct Scoping Process and Prepare an Environmental Assessment Holtec Decommissioning International, LLC and Holtec Palisades, LLC; Palisades Nuclear Plant, Unit 1 Comment On: NRC-2024-0076-0001 Holtec Decommissioning International, LLC, and Holtec Palisades, LLC; Palisades Nuclear Plant; Notice of Intent To Conduct Scoping Process and Prepare an Environmental Assessment Document: NRC-2024-0076-DRAFT-0065 Comment on FR Doc # 2024-14112 Submitter Information Name: Bonnie Williams Address:
Alexandria, VA, 22305 Email:vastforever@gmail.com General Comment Comments from Bonnie J. Williams on Holtecs request to re-open the Palisades Nuclear Park.
Re: Docket ID NRC-2024-0076 I am writing to ask that ask that an Environmental Impact Study be conducted before considering allowing the Palisades Nuclear Plant to re-open.
My family has had a cottage in Palisades Park for five generations, since the park opened early in the last century.
We are well aware of the history of that plant and the reasons it was eventually shut down.
The plant has a history of safety violations and emergency shut downs; it was not properly maintained and did not have the proper investment or funding. And now, it may be handed over to Holtec, a company with apparently no experience operating a nuclear plant. It is unthinking to go forward without a full and honest assessment of the big picture that demands attention here.
I am writing to ask that NRC to do its proper oversight role by conducting an Environmental Impact Study (EIS) to understand what it involved in restarting and running this plant.
This plant is not safe, and there is no reason to believe it will be safe, especially without conducting an EIS. If this plant were to open and have an accident, heaven forbid the destruction it could cause.
It is nothing short of reckless to re-open a plant with such glaring and avoidable dangers for the 7/30/24, 6:55 AM blob:https://www.fdms.gov/0c61326f-ac8c-433c-8bb8-582498d702d4 blob:https://www.fdms.gov/0c61326f-ac8c-433c-8bb8-582498d702d4 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 (65)
