ROBERT E.

I was convinced that irradiated food was safe, and that any safety issues <br /> associated with the development and operation of a facility could be adequately <br /> resolved. <br /> My opinion has not changed. I know of no rational reason not to encourage <br /> <br /> the development of an irradiation facility. To the contrary there are a number of <br /> good reasons, particularly the improvement of our economy, to support such a <br /> facility. <br /> Very truly yours, <br /> Robert E.
