I. SECY-01-0198 - Dominion Nuclear Connecticut, Inc. (Millstone Nuclear Power Station, Units 2 and 3)

The Commission approved a Memorandum and Order responding to an appeal by the Connecticut Coalition Against Millstone and the Standing for Truth About Radiation (STAR) Foundation of the Atomic Safety and Licensing Board's decision in LBP-01-10 which found the petitioners' sole contention to be inadmissable.

1. Section 201 of the Energy Reorganization Act, 42 U.S.C. Section 5841, provides that action of the Commission shall be determined by a "majority vote of the members present." Commissioner McGaffigan was not present when this item was affirmed. Accordingly the formal vote of the Commission was 4-0 in favor of the decision. Commissioner McGaffigan, however, had previously indicated that he would approve this paper and had he been present he would have affirmed his prior vote.
