Dear Mr. Pham:
As both an Indian Point Energy Center employee and a Hudson Valley region resident, I urge you to approve the renewal of the IPEC license.
During several public meetings on the subject of Indian Point, I was very disappointed by the lack of factual information communicated to the public about the benefits of nuclear power for the region.
Too often, personnel from Indian Point and Entergy are not presented with a balanced platform from which to express their views. Expert opinions on IPEC operational safety, security, emergency planning, and air quality held by knowledgeable Entergy employees and/or supporters of Indian Point are not heard with the same level of attention as are the opinions of IPEC detractors. Furthermore, the economic viability of a well-run Indian Point and its positive effect on the surrounding communities are not deemed to be fully understood by certain groups possessing a stake in IPEC's future.
Of special interest to me as an area resident is the issue of air quality. Several times over the past few years, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the American Lung Association have reported on the lower Hudson River Valley region's considerably polluted air. The population of this region has expanded with an accompanying increase in air pollution. My family and neighbors are worried about this alarming trend, and are uncomfortable with the idea of removing the area's largest source of essentially carbon-free electricity off the grid.
Since Indian Point has been located in this region, its two nuclear units have never contributed carbon emissions through the generation of over 2,000 megawatts of much needed electricity. Nuclear technology is acknowledged to be currently a key contributor to combating global warming, and is seen as playing an even greater role in the future in this regard. Even Greenpeace co-founder and nuclear power advocate Dr.
Patrick Moore has noted as much in many speeches he has given throughout this area.
For the good of the region, and in light of the need for more environmentally friendly sources of electricity
- not less of them - I ask you to support'the relicensing of the Indian Point Energy Center.
Sincerely yours, SJaroslav P. Bubniak
