I am flabbergasted that this issue is seriously being discussed or considered.

These safety standards have been in place since the 1950's (when the consequences of radiation exposure were plain to see).

Perhaps, consider an alternative view point: http://www.counterpunch.org/2015/09/08/radiation-is-good-for-you-and-other-tall-tales-of-the-nuclear-industry/

I live in close proximity to Ginna Nuclear Power Plant, the age of which is worrisome enough. I have no desire to worry that the aging plant will be permitted to release more radiation into the surrounding environment, which is precisely what will happen if the new standards are adopted.

There is no safe level of radiation. I hear this every time I go to the doctor for a evaluation of the sun damage to my skin. It's the reason I do not have dental x-rays on every visit for a cleaning.

Yes, it is safe to assume, that if I had a vote, it would be a resounding "no".
