Dear Hro AnderE!,
. 2800 Ath Lake Shore St *. Joseph 7 Michigan Septeober 22 7 1975 Drive According to an article. in our local papert* the Palisades nuclear power plant* on August 28 and 29 exceeded the allm*mble 1 imits of the. radioactive concentrations i.n discl?-arge into Lake Hichi.gan.
As a citizen living in the area of St.
I am concerned that any amount of radioactivity is released into the source of drinking water and for millions of people" I am therefore concerned about nuclear power* plants sited on the shores of Lake :Michigan and the other Great Lakes. (This is only the beginning of my concern) ** More specifically, at this time, I would like to address myself to the problems*
of tb.e Pal isade.s plant & I have. the.se. que.stionso*oo
.. 1 .. How many times, how much-and what conce.ntration of radio-.. ' active. material-has been leaked .into -Lake :Michigan in .the.
of **.this* plant? the 11 ailo-wable 11 limit at}.d how rnany .tilnes has it been excsede.d?
2o \4hat ne;w threat is posed to the la.ke. by the on going erosion of the. shore along the beach adjacent to the plant? 3o \;Jhat does Palisades do viith its radioactive.
waste -both low and high level? How much is stored on site, how and for how long? Where is it shipped for reprocessing or disposal? . 4. It/hat does the monitoring of e.raiss ions show in regard to pollution of the air and surrounding farmland *with and.other substances?
5o Is the basic problem with the difficulty of op2ration
.* of the Pal isade.s plant due to the inherent ff:aterial problems associate.d
- with zirconium alloys and the current ct._. sign of reactors?
Thank you for 2ny information you e:an give me. on the above. (_\
