Because
Oyster Creek operates a safe and reliable plant and is a
committed community partner, there are a number of public
officials, the business community and labor representatives
who support the station's relicensing efforts. |

"Nuclear
power is clean, safe and reliable. NJBIA urges you to support
the continued investment, growth and operation of Oyster
Creek Generating Station. Keep the lights on and the emissions
at zero."
---Sara Bluhm
Director, Energy and Federal Affairs New Jersey Business |

Oyster Creek alone produces nine percent of all the electricity
we use in New Jersey . It has a direct and dramatic positive
economic effect on the local, regional and state economy.
The loss of Oyster Creek would be devastating to those economies"

"Several officials from the Borough of Seaside Heights
visited Oyster Creek, and they were impressed with the
facility. It would be a shame to lose the large amount
of clean, efficient energy that is produced by this plant.
Many families in our area rely not only on the clean electricity
produced at Oyster Creek, but also on the economic benefits
that the plant brings to their local communities. I believe
that if the NRC finds that Oyster Creek meets all of their
guidelines, the plant's license should be renewed."
---Mayor P. Kenneth Hershey, Borough of Seaside Heights

"The
work force at Oyster Creek is highly trained, exceptionally
dedicated and incredibly focused on the safety and reliability
issues that make Oyster Creek a quality operator. Oyster
Creek provides enough clean energy to supply the power needs
of the homes in Ocean, Monmouth and Atlantic counties, an
area that encompasses 1.5 million people or approximately
17 percent of our entire state population."
---Ed Stroup, President
IBEW Local 1289, Representing the union workers at Oyster

"Oyster Creek is a good corporate neighbor in Lacey
Township . The nuclear power plant has a significant positive
impact on the local economy and supported our Township
emergency services and charitable organizations. The Lacey
Township Committee fully supports the renewal of the license
and looks forward to continuing the mutually beneficial
relationship that has been established between the community
and the operators of Oyster Creek Generating Station."
---Mayor Gary Quinn, Lacey Township
