South Carolina Electric & Gas Co. (SCE&G) is offering the workshops as opportunities for the public to help identify issues of importance to them related to operations, economics and environmental considerations regarding the plant, whose license expires in 2010. “We believe a critical element of the relicensing process will be the involvement of all who are interested in the future operation of the project,” said Jim Landreth, vice president of fossil and hydro operations for SCE&G. “We invite the public to attend the upcoming issues identification workshops to express their interests and share their opinions on the Saluda Project.” Those attending the workshops will be given an overview of the relicensing process and there will be individual breakout sessions focusing on specific topics including fish and wildlife, water quality, project operations, recreation and land management. Locations, dates and times for these workshops are as follows: Oct. 26 Oct. 27 Oct. 28 American Legion Hut Community Hall Saluda Shoals Park 108 South Rudolph Street 1109 Main Street 5605 Old Bush River Rd. Saluda, SC Newberry, SC Columbia, SC 1 to 4 p.m. 1 to 4 p.m. 1 to 4 p.m. 6 to 9 p.m. 6 to 9 p.m. 6 to 9 p.m. - more - “There is no cost to attend these workshops and the community’s involvement is greatly encouraged,” Landreth added. “We hope the public takes advantage of this opportunity to talk with SCE&G and others to identify issues related to Lake Murray and the Lower Saluda River and the relicensing of the Saluda Hydro Project.” Kleinschmidt Associates, a consulting firm which specializes in providing engineering, regulatory management and environmental services to the energy and water resource industries, is coordinating the workshops for SCE&G.

I suggest you slow the flow at night when less electricity is being consumed. Slow the flow down so that the lake rises. Please do this and we will all be happy. Sincerely, Sean Hart rational thinker, and Duke of Chapin" Lake level.txt From: [email protected] Sent: Wednesday, February 09, 2005 12:01 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Lake level I would like to see SCE&G reduce the lake level fluctuation. The difference between winter and summer lake level is a considerable difference. It plays havok with my dock, causes me to be frightened to boat in the winter months (stumps and sandbars), upsets the entire ecosystem of the lake and shoreline (fish, animals and plants), and reduces the overall lake enjoyment by everyone. There are many lake in the southeast that seem to be able to keep the fluctuation to within a few feet, why not Lake Murray as well? Page 1 Lake Murray water level.txt From: Dezzani, Michael M. [[email protected]] Sent: Saturday, February 19, 2005 11:16 AM To: '[email protected]' Subject: Lake Murray water level I would like to express my opinion that 354 ft is excellent low water level for the winter draw down. Barring any unforeseen events (damn work, weed control, etc....), 354 ft should be the low water mark for the year. Thank you for taking the time to read my input. Michael M.
