September 2015 1-5 14-14979 <br /> The Project was formally announced in March 2015. Since that time and leading up to the submittal <br /> of the SCA, FPL reached out to stakeholder groups including elected officials, site neighbors, <br /> environmental groups, government agencies, and Okeechobee and Indian River counties (see <br /> Appendix 10.1 Coordination). Local media outlets were notified about the Project to inform residents <br /> surrounding the Site. FPL mailed out 718 letters to residents, business owners and owners of <br /> property within a 5-mile radius of the Site. The mailing included a fact sheet informing them of the <br /> Project and identified how they can provide feedback. In addition, tN&.o public open houses, one held <br /> in Okeechobee(May 26,2015)and the other in Vero Beach(June 2,2015)provided an opportunity to <br /> share detailed Project information with the local community, obtain individual feedback, and answer <br /> questions. Information resources developed include: fact sheet; facility conceptual renderings; a <br /> website io►JT1,ic Cl�Za:f,::r_ ;;�_), which includes a project overview and FAQs; a <br /> PowerPoint presentation (for stakeholder briefings); and numerous information boards used at the <br /> open houses. Over the past six months and in the future throughout Project permitting, FPL has and <br /> will continue to maintain proactive outreach and dialogue with the community. FPL's goal is to be <br /> the first and best source of information about the Project and is committed to responding to questions <br /> and comments in a timely manner. <br /> Attachment 1 b <br /> 183 <br />
