House Resolution No. by Representative LaCombe commemorates the fortieth anniversary of Entergy's River Bend Station, which has been a vital source of safe, reliable, and carbon-free electricity for Louisiana since it began operations in 1986. The resolution highlights the station's significant contribution to energy resilience in Southeast Louisiana, serving nearly half a million customers with a dependable capacity of 978 megawatts. It also acknowledges the dedication of the over 800 employees and contractors who uphold high standards of operational excellence, nuclear safety, and emergency preparedness.

Furthermore, the resolution recognizes River Bend Station's strong partnership with local communities, including West Feliciana, East Feliciana, Pointe Coupee, and East Baton Rouge, through job creation, support for charitable organizations, and investment in STEM education and workforce development initiatives. As the plant approaches its fortieth anniversary in 2026, the resolution honors the legacy and achievements of its workforce and underscores the critical role the station plays in securing Louisiana's energy future.
