I am concerned about: The irreparable damage to wild life and our ecology in this area both on land and in the sea around this area of coastline Our areas of outstanding natural beauty and unique ecological habitats being destroyed and I have no confidence that EDF's plans can offer a reasonable alternative or solution The negative impact on tourism to RSPB Minsmere and our surrounding areas managed by Suffolk Wildlife Trust. The levels of air pollution, light pollution and noise pollution being significantly increased The management of dust and disposal of construction waste How our local roads and transport links can sustain the amount of traffic this project will generate - eg A14 and the Orwell Bridge, A12 and local roads through and around our Suffolk villages New roads being built that would remove more of our beautiful Suffolk countryside, wildlife habitat, divide communities and destroy established footpaths and bridleways The ability of healthcare, social care and emergency services to serve the sudden increase in local population (due to workers brought in by this project during the many years of construction) and that vulnerable people will suffer as a result. The probability of property devaluation This not being the right place for such a large project with such a long timescale The safety of the nuclear reactors, both in the event of catastrophic natural events or terrorism, and the storage of nuclear waste
