Indian Point EIS Comments
Dear Bo Pham,
Indian Point is a dangerous and badly run power plant. It will
take courage on the part of public officials and decision-makers like yourself to take a real look at the risks and dangers of operating this nuclear plant in such a populated place. But I
urge you to do so.
I formally request that the Nuclear Regulatory Commission
address the following environmental and public health issues in the Draft Environmental Impact St atement for the Indian Point nuclear power plant:
1: the impacts of a terrorist a ttack or large-scale accident at Indian Point on the Croton Reserv oir, a drinking water supply for New York City and Westchester County residents;
2: the impacts of Indian Poin t's once-through cooling system on the Hudson River fish populations - including entrainment, impingement, and thermal pollution - using the most current scientific studies;
3: the build-up of high-level r adioactive waste at Indian Point and the ongoing radioactive leaks or iginating from at least two spent fuel pools;
4: the alternatives to Indian Point's nuclear power, using a
combination of renewable energy (wind, solar, geothermal), conservation, and clean natural gas, as offered by the 2006 National Academy of Sciences report.
Sincerely, Eddie Scher
