3RD LIBRARY TO MAKE AVAILABLE PEACH BOTTOM LICENSE
RENEWAL INFORMATION


In an effort to broaden access to information on the license renewal process for the Peach Bottom nuclear power plant, another public library in the vicinity of the facility will now make available related documents. The Quarryville Library, in Lancaster County, Pa., recently agreed to a Nuclear Regulatory Commission request to serve as a location where members of the public can view documents pertaining to an environmental review required as part of the process.

The NRC's request came after local citizens suggested the library's use at a recent public meeting at which comments on the environmental review were sought.

The Quarryville Library is located at 357 Buck Road in Quarryville. Its hours are 10 a.m. to 8 p.m., Monday through Thursday, and 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Friday and Saturday. It is closed on Sunday.

Copies of the license renewal documents are also available at two other libraries:

  • Harford County Public Library, Whiteford Branch, 2407 Whiteford Road, Whiteford, Md. 21160; and
  • Collinsville Community Library, 2632 Delta Road, Brogue, Pa. 17309.

In addition, copies can be obtained from the NRC Public Document Room, located at One White Flint North, 11555 Rockville Pike, Rockville, Md., 1-800-397-4209.

Exelon Corporation, which operates the Peach Bottom plant, submitted its license renewal application for the York County, Pa., facility to the NRC in July 2001. The current schedule provides for a final licensing decision in July 2003.
