- mercury contamination .
A recent NOAH study found that Lake Michigan is the most contaminated with mercury
of all the Great Lakes, and that coal-burning power plants contribute the lion's share of
the pollution . Illinois plants are among the top sources of mercury into Lake Michigan
.
Mercury pollution poses serious risks for human health as well to the health of
Lake Michigan

discouraged for people, and is unavoidable for bald eagles, loons and other wildlife

I am writing to urge you to support the IEPA mercury rule to reduce power plant
mercury emissions by 90% by 2009 .
Mercury is a known neurotoxin that already contaminates fish in all Illinois
waters-and its main source is coal-fired power plants
. Studies have shown that
mercury exposure harms the human brain, heart, and immune system
.
Developing fetuses and children are especially at risk as even low-level mercury
exposure can cause learning disabilities, developmental delay and decreased IQ
.
Modern, inexpensive pollution controls can capture 90% of the mercury from power
plants
. IEPA's rule would simply require Illinois coal-fired power plants to use this
technology . Please support the rule to make it clear that putting our children at
risk for brain damage is not an acceptable cost of doing business in Illinois .
