Dear Sir or Madam:
Thank you for the opportunity to comment during this period of consideration for the renewal of the license of the Omaha Public Power District's nuclear power plant.
The management and employees of OPPD have a long history of civic involvement in our community. Last year alone they contributed over
$290,000 to the United Way campaign. The average gift per employee is well above our community average. Employees at Fort Calhoun contributed nearly a third of this total.
OPPD employees freely volunteer their time and talent to a wide array of important charitable and civic efforts in our community. These gifts of time and money have a significant positive impact on the quality of life in our community, addressing issues as diverse as early childhood education, and public safety.
Also, all of the individuals and organizations in our community benefit directly from the very affordable electric rates that result from the efficient management and operation of the power generating facilities.
Your approval of the license renewal for the Fort Calhoun plant would ensure the continued presence of a great corporate citizen that provides value in so many ways to our entire community.
Thank you again for the opportunity to share my comments.
Sincerel
