Dear NRC Decision Team:
As a director responsible for the energy expenses of a significant business I wish to offer my support for the license renewal for Point Beach nuclear plants 1 & 2. Energy costs for businesses in Wisconsin represent a large overhead cost that is difficult to pass on to our customer base. Rising health care costs in Wisconsin can only be brought under control by reduction of overhead. Energy is one of the largest expenses our industry faces.
We are very fortunate to have a well maintained, fully amortized nuclear plant producing a percentage of our energy to help control these costs. To replace this power production today would not only mean a large capital investment but either the environmental damage of a burning coal or the use of precious national gas which is needed for heating our homes. Nuclear plants still represent the most environmentally sound form of energy production we have available to us and keeping this plant operational as long as possible is critical to Wisconsin's economy and environment.
