Dear Pollution Control Board
You hold the key to eliminating a ney 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
.

Dear Illinois Pollution Control Board
:
You hold the 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 far 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 .
Sincerely,
