Dear Members Of The Illinois Pollution Control Board :

I urge you, to adopt strong controlsthat, by 2009, would

cut coal plant mercury pollution by 90%

.

Every river, lake, and stream in Illinois now carries a health

warning for mercury contamination . Illinois can address this

problem now and show America how requiring cost-effective

measures for mercury control will clean up local lakes and

streams and promote a healthy economy

.

Reducing m

r

issions by 90% is achievable at

reasonable co

ove this plan to protect

our families and
