Indian Point EIS Comments Bo Pham
Dear Bo Pham,
At the meeting in September about the environmental consequences of another 20 years of Indian Point, I was amazed that the environmental issues included so much money: specifically that many of the Indian Point supporters have received or are receiving so much financial support from Entergy - African American business groups, local non-profits - so they're all keen on Indian Point continuing...probably forever.
I was also struck by comments from people who work at Indian Point about how safe the plant is. I have concluded that the plant is much safer for those who work INSIDE it than for those of us OUTSIDE it who are subjected to air-borne and water-borne releases of radioactivity on a continual basis. Although the National Academy of Sciences has now determined that THERE IS NO SAFE LEVEL OF EXPOSURE TO RADIOACTIVITY, the NRC has not taken a single step to revise downward the "safe" level of exposure, either for workers or for the general public - at least not that I'm aware of. In consideration of another 20 years of ANY of the nuclear plants around the country, I believe those everyday emissions levels need to be revised.
At this time I am formally requesting that the Nuclear Regulatory Commission address the following environmental and public health issues in the Draft Environmental Impact Statement for the Indian Point nuclear power plant:
1: the impact of a large-scale accident at Indian Point on the Croton Reservoir, a drinking water supply for New York City and Westchester County residents; 2: the impacts of Indian Point's once-through cooling system on the Hudson River fish populations - including entrainment, impingement, and thermal pollution - using the most current scientific studies;
3: the build-up of high-level radioactive waste at Indian Point and the ongoing radioactive leaks originating from at least two spent fuel pools; 4: the alternatives to Indian Point's nuclear power, using a combination of renewable energy (wind, solar, geothermal),
conservation, and clean natural gas, as offered by the 2006 National Academy of Sciences report.
