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,
Fredrick Holland

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,
Gregory Lapin

Dear Pollution Control Board members,
As a human race, we are contaminating
ourselves . Please, take whatever action is
necessary to insure that mercury emissions are reduced
as much as possible . Please,
don't
give in to corporate lobbyists who care only about
the profits of their
company . There
are millions of citizens just like me who care little for money but
are very concerned about the overall well being of this country, its land, and its
future generations who will inherit the land, air, and water after us
. The world as
we know it is dying . We, as a race, are changing so fast that the earth and her
ecosystems can't keep up with us
. I have not lost faith that the human race can
create a sustainable culture through responsible living
. It's not too late to act
responsibly with long-term effects in mind .
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

What will happen if we do not reduce mercury emissions? Do you think the problem
will go away? No, it will build up in our air, lakes, rivers, and streams
. The
problem will get worse . We have to keep our environment clean, or we will eventually
suffocate ourselves with our own industrial filth
. The long-term should not be
ignored . Please think twice .

Gary Teune, Jr .

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
mercury exposure
its main
harms
source
the human
is coal-fired
brain, heart,
power
and
plantsimmune
. Studies
systemhave
.
shown that
Developing fetuses and children are especially at risk as even low-level mercury
exposure can cause learning disabilities, developmental delay and decreased IQ
.
technologyplantsModern,
.
inexpensive
IEPA's
. Please
rule
support
pollution
would simply
the
controls
rule
require
to
can
make
Illinois
capture
it clear
coal-fired
90%
that
of the
putting
power
mercury
our
plants
from
children
to
poweruse
atthis
risk for brain damage is not an acceptable cost of doing business in Illinois
.
