	"description": "Thank you for submitting a comment to Philadelphia&#x27;s Air Management Services office about SEPTA&#x27;s proposed Nicetown gas plant! Air Management Services (AMS) is the city agency that monitors air pollution and enforces city, state and federal air quality regulations. SEPTA has applied to AMS for a permit for Nicetown gas plant, and AMS has announced that they intend to issue approval. AMS is accepting written comments until Tuesday, June 27th, and the agency will hold a public hearing that evening. We encourage everyone who is concerned about the plant to submit a comment expressing their objections and to speak at the hearing. How to Submit a Comment AMS only accepts comments by mail. In order to make it easier for people to submit input, we&#x27;ve created this webform. If you enter your comment here, we will print it and mail it to AMS. You can also email you comment to us at 350philadelphia@gmail.com. Please let us know if we can also share your comment with elected officials and with the public. You can also mail your comment directly to: Air Management Services, 321 University Avenue, 2nd Floor, Philadelphia, PA 19104, Attn: Debra Williams. Suggestions for Your Comment Please urge AMS to deny a permit for the proposed gas plant and to carry out additional study. We encourage you to mention what is at stake for you personally, especially if you live, work, or go to school near the location of the proposed gas plant. know someone who does. In addition, Air Management Services has not fully examined the potential health impact of SEPTA&#x27;s proposed gas plant. The methods that AMS has used are not sufficient to protect public health. Neighborhood residents are already overburdened with air pollution and with associated illnesses. A 2012 health study indicated that 31% of children in the 19140 ZIP code have been diagnosed with asthma--far above the average for the city. In addition, 19140 has the highest rate of childhood asthma hospitalizations in the city. AMS has not considered the ways in which those burdens make community members especially vulnerable to additional pollution from the gas plant. AMS has not examined a pollutant that is especially concerning: ultrafine particles. There is growing evidence that ultrafine particles are especially harmful to people&#x27;s health, and several studies have found that ultrafine particles are emitted in large numbers by natural gas power plants. Though ultrafine particles are not yet regulated by the federal Environmental Protection Agency or the Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection, there is ample reason to be concerned. AMS should examine the ultrafine particle pollution that is already present in the neighborhood and the ultrafine particles that will be emitted by the proposed gas plant.",
