Dear Pollution Control Board :
You nuio toe key to eliminating a key threat to Lake Michigan - mercury contamination .
A recent NOAA 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. Eating predator fish from Lake Michigan, which contain mercury, is
discouraged for people, and is unavoidable for bald eagles, loons and other wildlife
that depend on lake fish .
Modern, inexpensive pollution controls can capture 90% of the mercury from a power
plant. In fact, several states are requiring power plant owners to use this technology . I
encourage you to adopt similar rules here in Illinois .
