Remarks as prepared for delivery

It’s my pleasure to follow two of our industry’s most enthusiastic congressional champions and, of course, Bob McGehee. They have set a wonderful tone for our meeting over the next two days.

I’d like to take a moment to acknowledge Joe Colvin. I’m honored to have succeeded him as NEI’s president and CEO and to carry on the important work he started on behalf of our industry. Thanks for your leadership, Joe.

As Bob McGhee described so well, our industry has achieved an outstanding record of safe, efficient nuclear plant operations. And that success has helped bring about unprecedented opportunities.

Now it’s time to move forward.

How do we continue making headway for tomorrow, while sustaining the record performance for today?

How do we sustain the momentum generated by the performance record of today’s plants?

To that end, I would like to discuss our key areas of focus for the coming year.

Individually and collectively, we debate, review and refine. We do that well.

But now we have set our course, and we’re moving forward with one clear voice.

One vision.

One industry, unified to develop the future energy security of our nation and with it, advance its physical security as well.
