Watts Bar Unit 2 Reactivation
Watts Bar Unit 1 received a full power operating license in early 1996, and is presently the last power reactor to be licensed in the U.S. TVA suspended construction of Watts Bar Unit 2 in 1985. On Aug 3 2007, TVA informed NRC of its plan to resume construction of Watts Bar Unit 2. On July 7, 2008, the NRC issued an Order extending the Watts Bar Unit 2 construction permit completion date to March 31, 2013. A Federal Register notice describing this Order and how persons adversely affected by the Order can request a hearing can be found at http://edocket.access.gpo.gov/2008/pdf/E8-15796.pdf.
