Davis-Besse Draft Environmental Impact Statement Public Meeting Good evening. My name is Jamie Beier Grant and I currently serve as Director of the Ottawa County Improvement Corporation.

I'd like to thank you for this opportunity to discuss the environmental impacts of Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station as you consider its request for license renewal.The Ottawa County Improvement Corporation is the lead economic development agency in the county and is charged with promoting the industrial, economic, commercial, and civic development of Ottawa County. Our focus is the creation of an environment in Ottawa County where existing businesses are able to successfully compete and grow in the worldwide marketplace and allow us to attract new companies to the area.One key consideration in attracting new business investments to the area is the availability of reliable, cost-effective electricity.

Over the last few years, clients I have worked with have made environmental sustainability and utility reliability a critical component of their location search, as they look to operate in areas that can provide a number of "green" options.The more than 900-megawatts of power provided through the Davis-Besse plant helps meet both the cost-effective supply of electricity and the incorporation of the "green" option into those search components.
