[Vanessa Paulman]

>Hi All,

>Thought you might like the chance to find out about the proposed Yankee
>Vernon Uprate. The 20% Uprate of a 30 year old power plant looked like a
>sure thing to be fast tracked with this outrageous pro-Nuke
>administration's NRC. Due to quite a bit of political resistance the
>approval process has been delayed by one year.
>
>Even though the Plant is within 10 miles of Greenfield's borders, most of
>us are not aware of it because it lives in Vermont. Bordeing Massachusetts
>and New Hampshire involvement could be of great assistance in stopping this
>scarey uprate proposition so forums are being set up in adjacent states to
>explain the problem and what can be done.
>
>Hope you can make it to the meeting, and maybe you could forward this
>message to someone you think would be interested.
