========================================================================================

Dear Friends and Colleagues,

Thanks to our environmental coalition co-counsel, Terry Lodge, who has written these Palisades Environmental Scoping Comments. They are in opposition to Holtec’s unprecedented, unneeded, extremely high-risk (for health, safety, and the environment), and insanely expensive (for the public) restart of the closed for good Palisades atomic reactor. They are intended as coalition comments — organizations and individuals are welcome to sign on.
The deadline to sign on is 5pm ET on Monday, July 29, 2024. A number of us requested a significant extension to the short, 30-day public comment deadline, but alas, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission said no a couple days ago. So we have to meet NRC’s 11:59pm ET, July 29th deadline.
To sign on, please email me back at <[email protected]> with the following information:
Organizations — Person’s name, title, organization name, address, city, state, zip code;
Individuals — Person’s name, address, city, state, zip code.
Please spread the word to your networks. Thank you.
—Kevin Kamps, Beyond Nuclear
