Dear Sam:
'"63 x m I-' c3 Over the past several weeks, the Indian Point new siren system has been tested extensively, throughout Rockland County. 1,understand that this testing is a necessary step towards
- completion, and Rockland County will continue to support this process. However, during this testing it has been observed by members of my staff, county employees and the general public that the volume levels produced by these sirens is less than desirable, and in many areas of the county, the volume is so low that residents would have no idea that the sirens had been activated.
I am aware that the decibels being measured for these sirens meet the federal requirements, but it appears that additional sirens are going to be required throughout our county. I am requesting that FEMA and the NRC not accept this new siren notification system unless a commitment by Entergy is reached that they will provide additional decibel readings in remote areas of our county and a plan is submitted to rectify the situation, which could include installing additional sirens. I am also requesting that this decibel testing be performed when there are leaves on the trees. The final acceptance of this new system should not be granted until the volume level meets or exceeds federal requirements throughout Rockland County.
