MI, Email:eobrien@c21scheetz.com General Comment I am a resident near the Palisades Nuclear Power Plant, and voicing concern over the rushed decision to re-open this plant. It was decommissioned several years ago. Because of this, any maintenance was neglected. This power plant had constant problems when it was open so we all know repairs are needed.
We were all glad to see it shut down. It doesn't belong here. IT IS ADJACENT TO A STATE PARK, FEEDS INTO ONE OF MICHIGAN'S GREATEST RESOURCES (LAKE MICHIGAN), AND IS SURROUNDED BY MANY HISTORICAL HOMES THAT ARE EITHER ON THE HISTORICAL REGISTRY OR IN THE PROCESS OF BEING APPROVED. These are all reasons for denial, or at the very least an investigation (EIS).
I understand the failed infrastructure is there, but it was not safe before and in need of massive improvements and gov't oversite and regulation if re-commissioned. I would like NO exemptions approved for re-opening. A full EIS is required, and any protocol for a NEW license should be followed.
Since when do you rightfully "extend" a license that has been revoked? There is a MASSIVE amount of money involved. Do not freely give out these funds without finding out how this impacts the area! A great part of Michigan's income is from vacationers. We've based our school year, working crews, and so much more on this. We must protect our beaches and waterways if we want this to continue. The last thing Michigan needs is more bad press from lack of oversite (IE:Flint)!
