Subject: Protect Our Drinking Water From Perchlorate Contamination

Dear Administrator Johnson,

Aloha -

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,

William Guse

Dear Administrator Johnson,

I am writing to ask you to rethink your initial assessment and reverse

concern than it appears to be raising in the EPA at present.

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.

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
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
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
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
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
flaws must be remedied for the sake of the millions of U.S. families
exposed to dangerous levels of perchlorate contamination.

Sincerely,

mauro oliveira

Dear Administrator Johnson,

I am writing to urge you reverse EPA\'s preliminary regulatory

Water Drinking Act is lax in itself as our clean streams and ground
waters are being polluted to the extent of extinction due to the
perverse rulings of the EPA in order to satisfy the Bush
Administration.Living in Tucson AZ.,one realizes the problems with
Perchlorlate pollution as we had seven wells polluted in the area of the
Huges, now Ratheon,plant where Govt.projects are worked on.When do you
people plan to do what you always have done since your founding.These
past eight years have put a dark spot on your history and your political
ethics as your job is to protect the people by stoping the polluters and
get rich riff-raff that come into power.You have done a piss poor job
for the people.Sold out to Bush and his insane ideas.You are responsible
to many families across this nation today and in the future.DO YOUR JOB!

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.

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,

Eli Blavin

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,

Judy Lazzara

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,

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,

Jennifer Lee

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,

Carol Rowe

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.

Dear Administrator Johnson,

We want health-protecting limits set on PERCHLORATE in our drinking
water.

We get too much of this poison already through other food sources. The
combination of the various sources results in overexposure to this known
poisenous substance. (As an aside, why would we even ALLOW ANY traces of
poison in our food and water???)

We want swift action\--action that sides with the general consumer AND
NOT with industry!

We are tired of the EPA & other government offices acting in favor of OR
siding with the industry\--we do not want more\"Erin Brokowitch\"

Please lower limits of perchloride in my drinking water!!!

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
