NRC SCHEDULES TWO MEETINGS ON IP2 ON MARCH 2

The Nuclear Regulatory Commission will hold two meetings on Friday evening , March 2, to discuss the findings of the recently completed team inspection at Indian Point 2 in Buchanan, New York. Both meetings will be held at the Cortlandt Town Hall in Cortlandt Manor, N.Y.

The first meeting, with Consolidated Edison Company of New York, will begin at 6 o'clock. The NRC and the company will discuss the results of the recently completed inspection. This "exit" meeting is open to the public for observation.

Then, at 7:30 p.m. at the Town Hall, the NRC will begin a meeting with the public. This meeting will include a short presentation on the inspection findings followed by an opportunity for the public and elected officials to ask questions of the NRC staff.

The 13-member team spent two weeks in the regional office preparing for the inspection and three weeks at Indian Point 2 collecting information.

The intent of this inspection is to provide the agency with supplemental information regarding licensee performance to determine the breadth and depth of safety, organizational and programmatic issues. The results of this inspection will aid the NRC in determining future actions.
