RE: INDIAN POINT RADIOLOGICAL EVACUATION PLAN
We, the undersigned are First Responders. We include Police Officers, Fire Fighters, EMS Workers,
Transportation Workers, School Administrators, Educators, Doctors and Nurses in the communities
within the 10-mile Emergency Evacuation Zone or the 50-mile peak injury zone around the Indian Point
Nuclear Power Facility.
The Report by James Lee Witt Associates commissioned by Governor Pataki, has clearly determined
that the existing emergency evacuation plan in inadequate to protect the public health and safety. The
four surrounding counties - Westchester, Rockland, Orange and Putman - and the State of New York
have refused to certify the evacuation plan because of the broad range of deficiencies identified.
We will do our utmost to make sure that the evacuation plan is executed as best as is humanly possible.
However, the large population, the lack of infrastructure, and the limited resources of this region make it
hard to foresee a successful evacuation without casualties, regardless of the cause of a significant
radiological release.
We are concerned that even our best efforts may not be enough to adequately protect the public health
and safety of the citizens of this region.
In conclusion, we request that the Federal Emergency Management Agency ("FEMA") and the Nuclear
Regulatory Commission ("NRC") not certify the emergency evacuation plan for Indian Point.

the10-mile Emergency Evacuation Zone or the 50 mile peak iniury zone around the Indian Point Nuclear
The Report by James Lee Witt Associates commissioned by Governor Pataki. has clearly determined that
the existing emergency evacuation Alan is inadequale to protect the Dublic health and safety. The four
suroundina counties. Westchester. Rockland, Orange and Putman, and the Slate of New York have
refjsed to certify because of the broad range of deficiencies identified.
The Garge population, the lack of infrastructure. and the limited resources of this region render it impossible
to have a successful evacuation regardless of the cause of a significant radiological release
We are dedicated to our positions as public safety professionals and we are also dedicated familt
members. We are concerned about the potential conflict of interest this could present in an emergency.
In conclusion. we request that the Federal Emeraencv Management Agency ("FEMA") and the Nuclear
&egulatorv Commission {"NRC") not certify the emergency evacuation plan for Indian Point.

RE: INDIAN POINT RADIOLOGICAL EVACUATION PLAN
We, the undersigned are First Responders. We include Police Officers, Fire Fighters, EMS Workers,
Transportation Workers, School Administrators, Educators, Doctors and Nurses in the communities
within the 10-mile Emergency Evacuation Zone or the 50-mile peak injury zone around the Indian Point
Nuclear Power Facility.
The Report by James Lee Witt Associates commissioned by Governor Pataki, has clearly determined
that the existing emergency evacuation plan is inadequate to protect the public health and safety. The
four surrounding counties -- Westchester, Rockland, Orange and Putnam -- and the State of New York
have refused to certify the evacuation plan because of the broad range of deficiencies identified.
We will do our utmost to make sure that the evacuation plan is executed as best as is humanly possible.
However, the large population, the lack of infrastructure, and the limited resources of this region make it
hard to foresee a successful evacuation without casualties, regardless of the cause of a significant
radiological release.
We are concerned that even our best efforts may not be enough to adequately protect the public health
and safety of the citizens of this region.
In conclusion, we request that the Federal Emergency Management Agency ("FEMA") and the Nuclear
Regulatory Commission ("NRC") not certify the emergency evacuation plan for Indian Point.
