Dear Pollution Control Board members,
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
.
Sincerely,
Diana Parmeter

Dear Pollution Control Board members,
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 .

Frances Nohling

Dear Pollution Control Board members,
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 .
Sincerely,
