WASHINGTON, DC – “I was saddened to learn of the death of Nuclear Regulatory Commissioner Edward McGaffigan Jr. this weekend.  In his over three decades of public service, Commissioner McGaffigan pioneered projects to promote nuclear energy to power our nation and increase safeguards for commercial nuclear facilities.  I wish his family and officials at the NRC my deepest sympathy as they mourn the loss of a friend and colleague.”
