EPA: Don't Increase the Amount of Radiation Allowed in Drinking Water!
- af: Food & Water Watch
- mottagare: President Obama, EPA Administrator Gina McCarthy and Office of Management and Budget Secretary Shaun Donovan
Right now, if a disaster were to strike – like a fracking truck spilling radioactive wastewater near your water, or even a nuclear disaster like Fukushima – the Safe Drinking Water Act sets clear limits to protect your health and safety from radiation. But the EPA is considering increasing that limit for anywhere from one year to four years after an emergency.
People should get clean drinking water in an emergency and should not be forced to drink water with a vastly higher concentration of radioactivity than considered acceptable under the Safe Drinking Water Act.
Sign to stop the EPA from increasing the amount of radiation allowed in your drinking water. Your message will be sent to President Obama, EPA Administrator Gina McCarthy and Office of Management and Budget Secretary Shaun Donovan.
Dear President Obama, EPA Administrator McCarthy, and OMB Secretary Donovan,
I am very concerned about the EPA's revised Protective Action Guides for responding to radiological releases.
These PAGs would significantly weaken radiation protections for me and my family by increasing the amount of radioactivity allowed in my drinking water.

This rule change is unacceptable. Everyone should have access to safe drinking water at all times - nobody should have to consume highly radioactive water, no matter the emergency.
Sincerely,
[Your name]
