Vermont Yankee comment To the NRC, I sent this already but am adding point number three.

I live in Conway, Massachusetts about 30 miles from Vermont Yankee. I am very concerned about the scope of the environmental impacts of Vermont Yankee on myself, my family, and all affected citizens. I deeply oppose the 20 year lease renewal and the uprate in power. Please do not approve either of these. Please listen to the citizens you are supposed to represent and protect.

These are my most urgent concerns:

1. Vermont Yankee must address the possibility of acts of terror. The spent fuel rods are currently stored in a location vulnerable to attack.

2. The NRC must require that Vermont Yankee provide a detailed analysis of the effects of a terrorist attack.

3. The increase in the river temperature needs to be fully analyzed for the affects over the new 20 year lease period. This raise could seriously affect the environment.

I hope you will address these points. Please hear the voices of the citizens directly affected by Vermont Yankee.
