Mitch:
As you may know, Loup Power District is currently in the process of relicensing its entire hydroelectric project,
including both powerhouses and the canal. As part of that process, the District is studying recreation use along
the canal and the extent that use is meeting the demand of the area. The study will be conducted during 2010 and
we will then be sitting down with the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, the governing agency who oversees
the powerhouses and canal, the Nebraska Game and Park Commission, the United States Fish and Wildlife Service
and the National Park Service to determine what further steps may need to be taken as a result of the studies
conducted. You can keep abreast of the updates by reviewing our relicensing website at
http://www.loup.com/relicense/index.html. This website is update frequently with information about the process.
You can also submit comments and contact us via this website. We will take your thoughts into account as we
perform our studies and move forward with our relicensing efforts.
Thank you for your concerns.
