NRC ASSIGNS NEW RESIDENT INSPECTOR TO INDIAN POINT 3 Printable Version
Nuclear Regulatory Commission officials in King of Prussia, Pa., have selected Mark R. Cox as the resident inspector at the Indian Point 3 nuclear power plant in Buchanan, N.Y. Entergy Northeast operates both Indian Point 2 and 3. The NRC has two inspectors assigned to each unit. Cox joins Senior Resident Inspector Peter Drysdale at unit 3. Peter Habighorst is the senior resident inspector at Unit 2. Resident Inspector Lois James is also assigned to Unit 2. Cox joined the Nuclear Regulatory Commission in May of this year. Previously, he served in the United States Navy’s nuclear program. He earned a bachelor’s of science degree in nuclear engineering and engineering physics from Renssalaer Polytechnic Institute (RPI) in Troy, N.Y., and is currently pursuing a master’s of science in electric power engineering from RPI. Cox, his wife and three children reside in Plattekill, N.Y., where they are active in the community. Each U.S. commercial nuclear power plant has at least two NRC resident inspectors. They serve as the agency's eyes and ears at the facility, conducting regular inspections and monitoring significant work projects. The Indian Point 3 resident inspectors can be reached at 914/739-8565.
