Joseph F. Picciano Acting Regional Director Federal Emergency Management Agency RE: INDIAN POINT RADIOLOGICAL EVACUATION PLAN We, the undersigned are First Responders. We include Police Officers, Fire Fighters, EMS Workers, Transportation Workers, School Administrators, Educators, Doctors and Nurses in the communities within the 10-mile Emergency Evacuation Zone or the 50-mile peak injury zone around the Indian Point Nuclear Power Facility.

The Report by James Lee Witt Associates commissioned by Governor Pataki, has clearly determined that the existing emergency evacuation plan in inadequate to protect the public health and safety. The four surrounding counties - Westchester, Rockland, Orange and Putman - and the State of New York have refused to certify the evacuation plan because of the broad range of deficiencies identified.

We will do our utmost to make sure that the evacuation plan is executed as best as is humanly possible.

However, the large population, the lack of infrastructure, and the limited resources of this region make it hard to foresee a successful evacuation without casualties, regardless of the cause of a significant radiological release.

We are concerned that even our best efforts may not be enough to adequately protect the public health and safety of the citizens of this region.

In conclusion, we request that the Federal Emergency Management Agency ("FEMA") and the Nuclear Regulatory Commission ("NRC") not certify the emergency evacuation plan for Indian Point.
