Attachment A
BEFORE THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION In the Matter of FLORIDA POWER & LIGHT COMPANY Docket Nos. 50-250, 50-251 Turkey Point Nuclear Generating Station, Units 3 and 4)
DECLARATION OF PETER STOCKER I, Peter Stocker, hereby declare as follows:
1.
The facts set forth in this declaration are based on my personal knowledge.
2.
I am the Vice President of Membership and Development of Friends of the Earth.
I have served in that position since January 2017. Friends of the Earth is a tax exempt, nonprofit environmental advocacy organization founded in 1969. Friends of the Earth is headquartered and incorporated in the District of Columbia and has an office in Berkeley, California. I am also a member of Friends of the Earth.
3.
I am familiar with the organization's mission, which is to defend the environment and create a more healthy and just world. One aspect of that mission is to engage in efforts to improve the environmental, health, and safety conditions at civil nuclear facilities licensed by the Nuclear Regulatory Commission and its predecessor agencies and oppose proposals to design and build new reactors subsidized with federal funds. To that end, Friends of the Earth utilizes its institutional resources, including legislative advocacy, litigation, and public outreach and education, to minimize the risks that nuclear facilities pose to its members and to the general public.
1
Friends of the Earth is a part of Friends of the Earth International, a federation of 4.
grassroots groups working in 74 countries on today's most urgent environmental and social issues. Friends of the Earth International is the world's largest grassroots environmental federation. In the United States, Friends of the Earth has more than 100,000 members in all 50 states, 4,800 of those members are in Florida. In addition to dues paying members, Friends of the Earth has 1.49 million online activist supporters across the country with 72,000 of them in Florida.
5.
Friends of the Earth relies on sound science and uses the law to advocate innovative strategies to conserve natural resources and protect public health and the environment. Friends of the Earth is engaged in a number of efforts before the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) to improve operating nuclear facilities and oppose new proposals and in litigation to support these efforts. The instant petition and request for a hearing in the NRC proceeding regarding Turkey Point, is an integral part of our advocacy to address the environmental, health and safety impacts from Turkey Point.
I declare under penalty of perjury that the foregoing is true and correct to the best of my knowledge, information, and belief.
