Re: Docket ID NRC-2014-O1 09 ..I am submitting these comments for the record concerning Docket No. NRC-2014-0109
-- theDTE Electric Company's application for. a 20-year extension of the operating license for EnricoFermi unit 2. , , , .:..I amsuperintendenlt of the Jefferson Schools here in Monroe County. Jefferson Schools servesroughly 2,000 children living in Frenchtown
- Township, Berlin Township and a portion of the cityof Monroe. I offer these comments for the record in SUpport of DTE Energy's application for alicense to extend the ilife Fermi 2 for an additional 20 years.I approach this subject for two reasons.
The first involves the fact that millions of DTE Energycustomers
-residents, businesses and institutions
-depend on the power generated by Fermi2. A license extension is the most cost-effective way of ensuring the availability of this supply ofclean, reliable electricity far into the future.The second involves Fermi's importance to our community.
Jefferson Schools is not aresource-rich district.
Roughly 45 percent of our students qualify for the free or reduced-fee school lunch program.
Fermi's contribution to the district's tax base is significant and makespossible a level of service that otherwise would not be possible.
i have toured the inside of the Fermi 2 plant and know many of the people who work there. Isee firsthand the commitment they possess, to protecting the health and safety of the public andalso our environment.
The standards are high -as they should be -and their dedication, tothose standards is just as high. ,I can personally attest to the active and engaged community efforts of the DTE Energyemployees.
From United Way support to Habitat for Humanity and dozens of other efforts, theemployees are active supporters and participate in many volunteer efforts in the community.

fact two of our schools are partnership schools with DTE Energy. Employees from the Fermi 2Nuclear Plant help as mentors for our robotics program as well and making in-kind materials and donations available from the DTE Energy Foundation for many years.Without a doubt, the Fermi complex, located in Frenchtown
- Township, provides a foundation notonly of tax revenue for the district and greater community but is source of economic and non-economic stability that benefits the entire community.
It is no secret that southeast Michigan as a region and Michigan as a state bore adisproportionate burden through recent economic downturns.
But throughout the good timesand the bad, Fermi 2 has always been our area's most stable employer and helped ourcommunity weather that economic storm.We are fortunate to have Fermi within our community.
While some controversy accompanies any discussion concerning nuclear power, we know that DTE is committed to safety andwholeheartedly endorse and support DTE Energy's pursuit of a license extension for Fermi 2.Thank you for this opportunity to comment.Sincerely, Craig A.

Employees from the Fermi 2Nuclear Plant help as mentors for our robotics program as well and making in-kind materials and donations available from the DTE Energy Foundation for many years.Without a doubt, the Fermi complex, located in Frenchtown
- Township, provides a foundation notonly of tax revenue for the district and greater community but is source of economic and non-economic stability that benefits the entire community.
It is no secret that southeast Michigan as a region and Michigan as a state bore adisproportionate burden through recent economic downturns.
But throughout the good timesand the bad, Fermi 2 has always been our area's most stable employer and helped ourcommunity weather that economic storm.We are fortunate to have Fermi within our community.
While some controversy accompanies any discussion concerning nuclear power, we know that DTE is committed to safety andwholeheartedly endorse and support DTE Energy's pursuit of a license extension for Fermi 2.Thank you for this opportunity to comment.Sincerely, Craig A.
