/6/25/0/2 (32 Submitter Information Name: Lynn Flanagan Address: 37 Jaipur Lane Saratoga Springs, NY, 12866-9278 ifi 7)rn c7'CA)General Comment There is no longer any legal basis for plants like Indian Point to avoid studying the environmental impacts of long-term nuclear waste storage in fuel pools or dry storage. At Indian Point, spent fuel has leaked carcinogenic nuclear waste into groundwater and the Hudson River, and its unfortified storage structure has been considered as a target of terrorists.

The U. S.Court of Appeal's decision forces the NRC to address the risks of nuclear waste disposal before any U.S. nuclear plant, including Indian Point, may be licensed or re-licensed.
