[Shop-talk] living near a power plant

[Ron Horwitz <ronglue@yahoo.com>]

I found a house that I like (garage is 28 x 21, it may have bedrooms and a 
kitchen), but it is within sight of the stack from the local oil fired steam 
plant.  From MS Streets, I would estimate one mile straight line.  Now, I'm a 
fan of electricity and conceptually this doesn't bother me, but I feel the need 
to be informed.  When I look at the environmental release form, it puts out 
2000lb lead, 30k lb vandium, 50k lb nickel, 66k lb hydrochloric acid and 450k 
lb sulfuric acid per year.  I still don't feel informed.  Does anyone have 
practical experience or know of a reference related to living near a power 
plant?

Thanks,
Ron
