§ DECLARATION Of KAREN HADDEN IN SUPPORT OF LEAVE TO INTERVENE IN COMANCHE PEAK NUCLEAR POWER PLANT, UNITS 1 AND 2 LICENCE RENEWAL APPLICATION PROCEEDING
- 1. My name is Karen Hadden. I live at 605 Carismatic Lane, Austin, Texas 78748. I am at least 18 years of age and of sound mind. I am the Executive Director of the Sustainable Energy & Economic Development (SEED) Coalition, a Texas-based organization that seeks to reduce radioactive risks. I am also a member of Citizens for Fair Utility Regulation and ask that my declaration to be included in this proceeding.
- 2. I frequently visit friends in Dallas and Ft. Worth and attend events in the area that are within a 50 mile radius of Comanche Peak Nuclear Power Plant. I especially like to hike and enjoy visiting Dinosaur Valley State Park in Glen Rose. I hope to visit the Fossil Rim Wildlife Center in the near future.
- 3. I oppose extending the license agreement for Comanche Peak for an additional 20 years. I am concerned about the impact that earthquakes, drought and aging on could have on Comanche Peak infrastructure, the Squaw Creek Reservoir and surrounding land, including rural areas as well as nearby Ft. Worth and Arlington, Texas. I am concerned about releases of tritium and other radionuclides and their impact on health and safety and that impacts of climate change have not been adequately considered. Security issues and the generation of vast quantities of additional spent nuclear fuel are also of concern to me.
Further Declarant saith not.
I hereby declare under penalty of perjury that the foregoing facts are true and correct and that any expression of opinion are based on my judgment.
Karen Hadden Dated: January 30, 2023 Karen Hadden
