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,
G . Trubow

As an avid angler and outdoor enthusiast, I am especially concerned about this issue
and hope you will act to ensure these controls are put in place . It would be nice to
think I could take my son fishing and that we could eat those fish without fear of
being poisoned . Catch and release has it's place and it's purpose, but some of my
fond memories of childhood include grilling fish we had caught and cleaned . Please
act to help our waterways .

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,
Elyse Friedman

mercury exposure harms the human brain, heart, and immune system

Dear Pollution Control Board members,
As an expectant mother, 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
. I
love eating fish, and it has been a sad and frustrating endeavor finding fish that
are safe enough for me to eat during pregnancy .
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
. There
is no excuse for not being able to eat the fish from our own lakes!

Lisa Phillips
