Subject: Protect Our Drinking Water From Perchlorate Contamination

Dear Administrator Johnson,

I am writing to urge you reverse EPA\'s preliminary regulatory
determination and set a protective drinking water standard for
perchlorate as required by the Safe Drinking Water Act.

Perchlorate contamination in our food and water supplies is too
widespread, and its toxic effects too well known, for continued inaction
on this problem.

Many experts disagree with your assessment that drinking water with 15
parts per billion of perchlorate is safe and acceptable. Scientists from
the California Environmental Protection Agency and the Massachusetts
Department of Environmental Protection have set stricter standards to
will ensure that the most vulnerable populations \-- pregnant women,
infants, and small children \-- are protected from the adverse impacts
of perchlorate.

EPA\'s analysis fails to consider that the combination of food and
drinking water exposure to perchlorate in the U.S. population exceeds
the reference dose set by EPA. Nor does it incorporate the more
protective methodology behind the recent state regulatory actions. These
flaws must be remedied for the sake of the millions of U.S. families
exposed to dangerous levels of perchlorate contamination.

Sincerely,

Rastic Samela

Subject: Protect Our Drinking Water From Perchlorate Contamination

Dear Administrator Johnson,

I am writing to urge you reverse EPA\'s preliminary regulatory
determination and set a protective drinking water standard for
perchlorate as required by the Safe Drinking Water Act.

Perchlorate contamination in our food and water supplies is too
widespread, and its toxic effects too well known, for continued inaction
on this problem.

Many experts disagree with your assessment that drinking water with 15
parts per billion of perchlorate is safe and acceptable. Scientists from
the California Environmental Protection Agency and the Massachusetts
Department of Environmental Protection have set stricter standards to
will ensure that the most vulnerable populations \-- pregnant women,
infants, and small children \-- are protected from the adverse impacts
of perchlorate.

EPA\'s analysis fails to consider that the combination of food and
drinking water exposure to perchlorate in the U.S. population exceeds
the reference dose set by EPA. Nor does it incorporate the more
protective methodology behind the recent state regulatory actions. These
flaws must be remedied for the sake of the millions of U.S. families
exposed to dangerous levels of perchlorate contamination.

Sincerely,

Subject: Protect Our Drinking Water From Perchlorate Contamination

Dear Administrator Johnson,

I am writing to urge you reverse EPA\'s preliminary regulatory
determination and set a protective drinking water standard for
perchlorate as required by the Safe Drinking Water Act.

Perchlorate contamination in our food and water supplies is too
widespread, and its toxic effects too well known, for continued inaction
on this problem.

Many experts disagree with your assessment that drinking water with 15
parts per billion of perchlorate is safe and acceptable. Scientists from
the California Environmental Protection Agency and the Massachusetts
Department of Environmental Protection have set stricter standards to
will ensure that the most vulnerable populations \-- pregnant women,
infants, and small children \-- are protected from the adverse impacts
of perchlorate.

EPA\'s analysis fails to consider that the combination of food and
drinking water exposure to perchlorate in the U.S. population exceeds
the reference dose set by EPA. Nor does it incorporate the more
protective methodology behind the recent state regulatory actions. These
flaws must be remedied for the sake of the millions of U.S. families
exposed to dangerous levels of perchlorate contamination.

Sincerely,

Subject: Protect Our Drinking Water From Perchlorate Contamination

Dear Administrator Johnson,

WITHOUT WATER ALL LIFE WILL CEASE TO EXIST.WHAT DO WE HAVE TO DO TO MAKE
SURE WE KEEP OUR WATER PURE. WHY DON\'T YOU PEOPLE SEEM TO CARE. IT
EFFECTS YOU ALSO. IT\'S TIME YOU FORGOT THE BUSH DOCTRINE OF DESTROY THE
ENVIRONMENT FOR PROFIT OF THE BIG COMPANIES AND THOUGH ABOUT WHAT IS
RIGHT FOR THE EARTH AND ALL THE LIFE FORMS THAT LIVE ON IT.

I am writing to urge you reverse EPA\'s preliminary regulatory
determination and set a protective drinking water standard for
perchlorate as required by the Safe Drinking Water Act.

Perchlorate contamination in our food and water supplies is too
widespread, and its toxic effects too well known, for continued inaction
on this problem.

Many experts disagree with your assessment that drinking water with 15
parts per billion of perchlorate is safe and acceptable. Scientists from
the California Environmental Protection Agency and the Massachusetts
Department of Environmental Protection have set stricter standards to
will ensure that the most vulnerable populations \-- pregnant women,
infants, and small children \-- are protected from the adverse impacts
of perchlorate.

EPA\'s analysis fails to consider that the combination of food and
drinking water exposure to perchlorate in the U.S. population exceeds
the reference dose set by EPA. Nor does it incorporate the more
protective methodology behind the recent state regulatory actions. These
flaws must be remedied for the sake of the millions of U.S. families
exposed to dangerous levels of perchlorate contamination.

Subject: Protect Our Drinking Water From Perchlorate Contamination

Dear Administrator Johnson,

I am writing to urge you reverse EPA\'s preliminary regulatory
determination and set a protective drinking water standard for
perchlorate as required by the Safe Drinking Water Act.

Perchlorate contamination in our food and water supplies is too
widespread, and its toxic effects too well known, for continued inaction
on this problem.

Many experts disagree with your assessment that drinking water with 15
parts per billion of perchlorate is safe and acceptable. Scientists from
the California Environmental Protection Agency and the Massachusetts
Department of Environmental Protection have set stricter standards to
will ensure that the most vulnerable populations \-- pregnant women,
infants, and small children \-- are protected from the adverse impacts
of perchlorate.

EPA\'s analysis fails to consider that the combination of food and
drinking water exposure to perchlorate in the U.S. population exceeds
the reference dose set by EPA. Nor does it incorporate the more
protective methodology behind the recent state regulatory actions. These
flaws must be remedied for the sake of the millions of U.S. families
exposed to dangerous levels of perchlorate contamination.

Subject: Protect Our Drinking Water From Perchlorate Contamination

Dear Administrator Johnson,

I am writing to urge you reverse EPA\'s preliminary regulatory
determination and set a protective drinking water standard for
perchlorate as required by the Safe Drinking Water Act.

Perchlorate contamination in our food and water supplies is too
widespread, and its toxic effects too well known, for continued inaction
on this problem.

Many experts disagree with your assessment that drinking water with 15
parts per billion of perchlorate is safe and acceptable. Scientists from
the California Environmental Protection Agency and the Massachusetts
Department of Environmental Protection have set stricter standards to
will ensure that the most vulnerable populations \-- pregnant women,
infants, and small children \-- are protected from the adverse impacts
of perchlorate.

EPA\'s analysis fails to consider that the combination of food and
drinking water exposure to perchlorate in the U.S. population exceeds
the reference dose set by EPA. Nor does it incorporate the more
protective methodology behind the recent state regulatory actions. These
flaws must be remedied for the sake of the millions of U.S. families
exposed to dangerous levels of perchlorate contamination.

Sincerely,

Kathy Wereski

Subject: Protect Our Drinking Water From Perchlorate Contamination

Dear Administrator Johnson,

I am writing to urge you reverse EPA\'s preliminary regulatory
determination and set a protective drinking water standard for
perchlorate as required by the Safe Drinking Water Act.

Perchlorate contamination in our food and water supplies is too
widespread, and its toxic effects too well known, for continued inaction
on this problem.

Many experts disagree with your assessment that drinking water with 15
parts per billion of perchlorate is safe and acceptable. Scientists from
the California Environmental Protection Agency and the Massachusetts
Department of Environmental Protection have set stricter standards to
will ensure that the most vulnerable populations \-- pregnant women,
infants, and small children \-- are protected from the adverse impacts
of perchlorate.

EPA\'s analysis fails to consider that the combination of food and
drinking water exposure to perchlorate in the U.S. population exceeds
the reference dose set by EPA. Nor does it incorporate the more
protective methodology behind the recent state regulatory actions. These
flaws must be remedied for the sake of the millions of U.S. families
exposed to dangerous levels of perchlorate contamination.

Sincerely,

Subject: Protect Our Drinking Water From Perchlorate Contamination

Dear Administrator Johnson,

I am writing to urge you reverse EPA\'s preliminary regulatory
determination and set a protective drinking water standard for
perchlorate as required by the Safe Drinking Water Act.

Perchlorate contamination in our food and water supplies is too
widespread, and its toxic effects too well known, for continued inaction
on this problem.

Many experts disagree with your assessment that drinking water with 15
parts per billion of perchlorate is safe and acceptable. Scientists from
the California Environmental Protection Agency and the Massachusetts
Department of Environmental Protection have set stricter standards to
will ensure that the most vulnerable populations \-- pregnant women,
infants, and small children \-- are protected from the adverse impacts

Subject: Protect Our Drinking Water From Perchlorate Contamination

Dear Administrator Johnson,

I am writing to urge you reverse EPA\'s preliminary regulatory
determination and set a protective drinking water standard for
perchlorate as required by the Safe Drinking Water Act.

Perchlorate contamination in our food and water supplies is too
widespread, and its toxic effects too well known, for continued inaction
on this problem.

Many experts disagree with your assessment that drinking water with 15
parts per billion of perchlorate is safe and acceptable. Scientists from
the California Environmental Protection Agency and the Massachusetts
Department of Environmental Protection have set stricter standards to
will ensure that the most vulnerable populations \-- pregnant women,
infants, and small children \-- are protected from the adverse impacts

Subject: Protect Our Drinking Water From Perchlorate Contamination

Dear Administrator Johnson,

I am writing to urge you reverse EPA\'s preliminary regulatory
determination and set a protective drinking water standard for
perchlorate as required by the Safe Drinking Water Act.

Perchlorate contamination in our food and water supplies is too
widespread, and its toxic effects too well known, for continued inaction
on this problem.

Many experts disagree with your assessment that drinking water with 15
parts per billion of perchlorate is safe and acceptable. Scientists from
the California Environmental Protection Agency and the Massachusetts
Department of Environmental Protection have set stricter standards to
will ensure that the most vulnerable populations \-- pregnant women,
infants, and small children \-- are protected from the adverse impacts
of perchlorate.

EPA\'s analysis fails to consider that the combination of food and
drinking water exposure to perchlorate in the U.S. population exceeds
the reference dose set by EPA. Nor does it incorporate the more
protective methodology behind the recent state regulatory actions. These
flaws must be remedied for the sake of the millions of U.S. families
exposed to dangerous levels of perchlorate contamination.

Subject: Protect Our Drinking Water From Perchlorate Contamination

Dear Administrator Johnson,

I am writing to urge you reverse EPA\'s preliminary regulatory
determination and set a protective drinking water standard for
perchlorate as required by the Safe Drinking Water Act.

Perchlorate contamination in our food and water supplies is too
widespread, and its toxic effects too well known, for continued inaction
on this problem.

Many experts disagree with your assessment that drinking water with 15
parts per billion of perchlorate is safe and acceptable. Scientists from
the California Environmental Protection Agency and the Massachusetts
Department of Environmental Protection have set stricter standards to
will ensure that the most vulnerable populations \-- pregnant women,
infants, and small children \-- are protected from the adverse impacts
of perchlorate.

EPA\'s analysis fails to consider that the combination of food and
drinking water exposure to perchlorate in the U.S. population exceeds
the reference dose set by EPA. Nor does it incorporate the more
protective methodology behind the recent state regulatory actions. These
flaws must be remedied for the sake of the millions of U.S. families

Subject: Protect Our Drinking Water From Perchlorate Contamination

Dear Administrator Johnson,

I am writing to urge you reverse EPA\'s preliminary regulatory
determination and set a protective drinking water standard for
perchlorate as required by the Safe Drinking Water Act.

Perchlorate contamination in our food and water supplies is too
widespread, and its toxic effects too well known, for continued inaction
on this problem.

Many experts disagree with your assessment that drinking water with 15
parts per billion of perchlorate is safe and acceptable. Scientists from
the California Environmental Protection Agency and the Massachusetts
Department of Environmental Protection have set stricter standards to
will ensure that the most vulnerable populations \-- pregnant women,
infants, and small children \-- are protected from the adverse impacts
of perchlorate.

EPA\'s analysis fails to consider that the combination of food and
drinking water exposure to perchlorate in the U.S. population exceeds
the reference dose set by EPA. Nor does it incorporate the more
protective methodology behind the recent state regulatory actions. These

Subject: Protect Our Drinking Water From Perchlorate Contamination

Dear Administrator Johnson,

I am writing to urge you reverse EPA\'s preliminary regulatory
determination and set a protective drinking water standard for
perchlorate as required by the Safe Drinking Water Act.

Perchlorate contamination in our food and water supplies is too
widespread, and its toxic effects too well known, for continued inaction
on this problem.

Many experts disagree with your assessment that drinking water with 15
parts per billion of perchlorate is safe and acceptable. Scientists from
the California Environmental Protection Agency and the Massachusetts
Department of Environmental Protection have set stricter standards to
will ensure that the most vulnerable populations \-- pregnant women,
infants, and small children \-- are protected from the adverse impacts
of perchlorate.

EPA\'s analysis fails to consider that the combination of food and
drinking water exposure to perchlorate in the U.S. population exceeds
the reference dose set by EPA. Nor does it incorporate the more
protective methodology behind the recent state regulatory actions. These
flaws must be remedied for the sake of the millions of U.S. families
exposed to dangerous levels of perchlorate contamination.

Subject: Protect Our Drinking Water From Perchlorate Contamination

Dear Administrator Johnson,

I am writing to urge you reverse EPA\'s preliminary regulatory
determination and set a protective drinking water standard for
perchlorate as required by the Safe Drinking Water Act.

Perchlorate contamination in our food and water supplies is too
widespread, and its toxic effects too well known, for continued inaction
on this problem.

Many experts disagree with your assessment that drinking water with 15
parts per billion of perchlorate is safe and acceptable. Scientists from
the California Environmental Protection Agency and the Massachusetts
Department of Environmental Protection have set stricter standards to
will ensure that the most vulnerable populations \-- pregnant women,
infants, and small children \-- are protected from the adverse impacts
of perchlorate.

EPA\'s analysis fails to consider that the combination of food and
drinking water exposure to perchlorate in the U.S. population exceeds
the reference dose set by EPA. Nor does it incorporate the more
protective methodology behind the recent state regulatory actions. These
flaws must be remedied for the sake of the millions of U.S. families
exposed to dangerous levels of perchlorate contamination.

Subject: Protect Our Drinking Water From Perchlorate Contamination

Dear Administrator Johnson,

I am writing to urge you reverse EPA\'s preliminary regulatory
determination and set a protective drinking water standard for
perchlorate as required by the Safe Drinking Water Act.

Perchlorate contamination in our food and water supplies is too
widespread, and its toxic effects too well known, for continued inaction
on this problem.

Many experts disagree with your assessment that drinking water with 15
parts per billion of perchlorate is safe and acceptable. Scientists from
the California Environmental Protection Agency and the Massachusetts
Department of Environmental Protection have set stricter standards to
will ensure that the most vulnerable populations \-- pregnant women,
infants, and small children \-- are protected from the adverse impacts
of perchlorate.

EPA\'s analysis fails to consider that the combination of food and
drinking water exposure to perchlorate in the U.S. population exceeds
the reference dose set by EPA. Nor does it incorporate the more
protective methodology behind the recent state regulatory actions. These
flaws must be remedied for the sake of the millions of U.S. families
exposed to dangerous levels of perchlorate contamination.

Sincerely,

Betty Mencucci

Subject: Protect Our Drinking Water From Perchlorate Contamination

Dear Administrator Johnson,

I am writing to urge you reverse EPA\'s preliminary regulatory
determination and set a protective drinking water standard for
perchlorate as required by the Safe Drinking Water Act.

Perchlorate contamination in our food and water supplies is too
widespread, and its toxic effects too well known, for continued inaction
on this problem.

Many experts disagree with your assessment that drinking water with 15
parts per billion of perchlorate is safe and acceptable. Scientists from
the California Environmental Protection Agency and the Massachusetts
Department of Environmental Protection have set stricter standards to
will ensure that the most vulnerable populations \-- pregnant women,
infants, and small children \-- are protected from the adverse impacts
of perchlorate.

Subject: Protect Our Drinking Water From Perchlorate Contamination

Dear Administrator Johnson,

I am writing to urge you reverse EPA\'s preliminary regulatory
determination and set a protective drinking water standard for
perchlorate as required by the Safe Drinking Water Act.

Perchlorate contamination in our food and water supplies is too
widespread, and its toxic effects too well known, for continued inaction
on this problem.

Many experts disagree with your assessment that drinking water with 15
parts per billion of perchlorate is safe and acceptable. Scientists from
the California Environmental Protection Agency and the Massachusetts
Department of Environmental Protection have set stricter standards to
will ensure that the most vulnerable populations \-- pregnant women,
infants, and small children \-- are protected from the adverse impacts
of perchlorate.

EPA\'s analysis fails to consider that the combination of food and
drinking water exposure to perchlorate in the U.S. population exceeds
the reference dose set by EPA. Nor does it incorporate the more
protective methodology behind the recent state regulatory actions. These

Subject: Protect Our Drinking Water From Perchlorate Contamination

Dear Administrator Johnson,

I am writing to urge you reverse EPA\'s preliminary regulatory
determination and set a protective drinking water standard for
perchlorate as required by the Safe Drinking Water Act.

Perchlorate contamination in our food and water supplies is too
widespread, and its toxic effects too well known, for continued inaction
on this problem.

Many experts disagree with your assessment that drinking water with 15
parts per billion of perchlorate is safe and acceptable. Scientists from
the California Environmental Protection Agency and the Massachusetts
Department of Environmental Protection have set stricter standards to
will ensure that the most vulnerable populations \-- pregnant women,
infants, and small children \-- are protected from the adverse impacts
of perchlorate.

Subject: Protect Our Drinking Water From Perchlorate Contamination

Dear Administrator Johnson,

I am writing to urge you reverse EPA\'s preliminary regulatory
determination and set a protective drinking water standard for
perchlorate as required by the Safe Drinking Water Act.

Perchlorate contamination in our food and water supplies is too
widespread, and its toxic effects too well known, for continued inaction
on this problem.

Many experts disagree with your assessment that drinking water with 15
parts per billion of perchlorate is safe and acceptable. Scientists from
the California Environmental Protection Agency and the Massachusetts
Department of Environmental Protection have set stricter standards to
will ensure that the most vulnerable populations \-- pregnant women,
infants, and small children \-- are protected from the adverse impacts

Subject: Protect Our Drinking Water From Perchlorate Contamination

Dear Administrator Johnson,

I am writing to urge you reverse EPA\'s preliminary regulatory
determination and set a protective drinking water standard for
perchlorate as required by the Safe Drinking Water Act.

Perchlorate contamination in our food and water supplies is too
widespread, and its toxic effects too well known, for continued inaction
on this problem.

Many experts disagree with your assessment that drinking water with 15
parts per billion of perchlorate is safe and acceptable. Scientists from
the California Environmental Protection Agency and the Massachusetts
Department of Environmental Protection have set stricter standards to
will ensure that the most vulnerable populations \-- pregnant women,
infants, and small children \-- are protected from the adverse impacts
of perchlorate.

EPA\'s analysis fails to consider that the combination of food and

Subject: Protect Our Drinking Water From Perchlorate Contamination

Dear Administrator Johnson,

I am writing to urge you reverse EPA\'s preliminary regulatory
determination and set a protective drinking water standard for
perchlorate as required by the Safe Drinking Water Act.

Perchlorate contamination in our food and water supplies is too
widespread, and its toxic effects too well known, for continued inaction
on this problem.

Many experts disagree with your assessment that drinking water with 15
parts per billion of perchlorate is safe and acceptable. Scientists from
the California Environmental Protection Agency and the Massachusetts
Department of Environmental Protection have set stricter standards to
will ensure that the most vulnerable populations \-- pregnant women,
infants, and small children \-- are protected from the adverse impacts
of perchlorate.

EPA\'s analysis fails to consider that the combination of food and
drinking water exposure to perchlorate in the U.S. population exceeds
the reference dose set by EPA. Nor does it incorporate the more
protective methodology behind the recent state regulatory actions. These
flaws must be remedied for the sake of the millions of U.S. families
exposed to dangerous levels of perchlorate contamination.
