U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission officials have scheduled a public exit meeting for Thursday, September 4, to present preliminary results from the inspection team reviewing the circumstances surrounding an August 28 shutdown and alert declaration at Unit 1 of the Tennessee Valley Authority’s Sequoyah nuclear plant northeast of Chattanooga. The meeting will be held at 1:00 p.m. (EDT) in the Sequoyah plant nuclear training building on the Sequoyah site, located at 2600 Igou Ferry Road near the town of Soddy-Daisy.
