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,
Robert Lehmann

Dear Pollution Control Board members,
I am writing to urge you to support the IEPA mercury rule to reduce 90% of power
plant mercury emissions by 2009 .
Mercury is a known neurotoxin that already contaminates fish in all Illinois bodies
of water . The main pollution source is coal-fired power plants, making them an
obvious focus for regulatory measures to reduce mercury levels in our environment
.
Studies have shown that mercury exposure harms the human brain, heart, and immune
system . Developing fetuses and children are especially at risk of toxicity since
exposure to low levels of mercury are capable of causing learning disabilities,
developmental delays, and decreased IQs in these individuals .
Modern, inexpensive pollution controls can capture 90% of the mercury produced in
power plants . IEPA's proposed rule would simply require Illinois coal-fired power
plants to use this existing 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 .

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,
Mark Tortoriello
