Cx&t=7> The San Onofre nuclear plant is an accident waiting to happen!
Dear Ed,
Eight million people in California will soon be endangered by America's most
dangerous nuclear power plant if Southern California Edison power company
has its way.
The San Onofre Nuclear Generating Station (SONGS), which sits on the beach
between Los Angeles and San Diego, was shut down temporarily in January
after it was found to be leaking radioactive steam. But incredibly, Southern
California Edison - the primary electricity provider for over 14 million
people in Southern California - is now trying to bring the dangerous nuclear
energy plant back online.1
This plant is unsafe, but it's also totally unnecessary. Even without the
San Onofre nuclear plant, there's enough power generating capacity in
Southern California to keep the lights on even on the hottest days of the
year.2 We need to shut this plant down permanently, and force Southern
California Edison to stop delaying implementation of clean, safe renewable
energy generating systems.

Cx&t=8> Tell the Nuclear Regulatory Commission's Chairman, Allison
Macfarlane: Shut down San Onofre Nuclear Generating Station permanently.

When this plant was shut down in January for maintenance, it was discovered
that it had been leaking radioactive steam from the new steam generators
that had just been installed in 2010. These new generators, which were
installed at a cost of $700 million, were expected to allow the plant to
remain open for many more years. But flaws in the design of these new parts
led to an unexpectedly short lifespan despite the high cost of installation.
This came as no surprise to anyone who's been tracking this plant. Data
collected by the Nuclear Regulatory Commission shows that the San Onofre
nuclear plant is a disaster waiting to happen. Not only does the plant have
more complaints of safety problems from employees and contractors than any
other nuclear power plant in the country,3 but it's also the site of the
most complaints of employee harassment and retaliation, meaning that
employees who notice safety problems and try and speak out are being
punished.4
Even worse, this plant is just five miles from the nearest earthquake fault
line, and recent research has shown that it's probably at higher risk of
damage from an earthquake than previously thought. Not to mention the fact
that it's built on the beach of the Pacific Ocean - just like the Fukushima
plant that experienced a meltdown in 2011 - making it susceptible to tsunami
waves.

Southern California Edison is endangering the lives of millions for a power
plant they don't need. The company needs to refocus efforts on renewable
energy, and save Californians from a dangerous and aging nuclear power
plant.
The Nuclear Regulatory Commission's new Chairman, Allison Macfarlane, can
use her position to convince the commission's other members that this plant
shouldn't reopen. She's been an outspoken critic of nuclear dangers, like
the Yucca Mountain complex. She needs to know how important it is to
Californians that Southern California Edison isn't allowed to put our state
at risk for a major nuclear incident.
