Non-Binding Public Opinion Advisory Question
Whereas, Massachusetts Emergency Management Agency (MEMA) Director Kurt Schwartz
has acknowledged that Cape residents and visitors are "in harm's way" in the event of a
radiological accident at the Pilgrim Nuclear Power Station in Plymouth;
Whereas, MEMA has determined that Cape residents and visitors will not be evacuated but
plans to relocate Cape citizens after exposure to dangerous radioactive materials released in
an accident;
Shall we, the citizens of the Town of Brewster find this State response to Pilgrim's threat to
dour health and safety unacceptable and in violation of the public trust and shall we
respectfully request that Governor Deval Patrick call upon the Nuclear Regulatory
Commission to uphold their mandate to shut Entergy's Pilgrim Nuclear Power Station in
Plymouth because the public safety, particularly Cape and Islands residents and visitors,
cannot be assured?
