NRC NAMES NEW SENIOR RESIDENT INSPECTOR AT CRYSTAL RIVER NUCLEAR POWER PLANT

Nuclear Regulatory Commission officials in Atlanta have announced the assignment of Stephen Cahill as the agency's Senior Resident Inspector at the Crystal River nuclear power plant, located near Crystal River, Florida.

Cahill joined the NRC in 1991 as an operator license examiner in the agency's Region II office in Atlanta and later worked as a project engineer in the same office. Most recently, he had been a resident inspector at the Watts Bar plant in Tennessee. Prior to joining the NRC, he worked for General Electric as a nuclear plant engineer and shift supervisor at the Knolls Atomic Power Laboratory Naval Prototype facility in Connecticut. He received a Bachelor's degree in mechanical engineering from Duke University and graduated from the Navy Nuclear Power School Officer Program in Orlando, Florida.

Cahill joins current NRC Resident Inspector Todd Cooper. Another recently-added resident inspector position is expected to be filled by mid-1997. The NRC inspectors at the Crystal River plant can be reached at 352-795-7677.
