P R O C E E D I N G S

CHAIRMAN KLEIN:   Madam Secretary, I believe we have an affirmation today.  Would you proceed? 

ANNETTE VIETTI-COOK:  This is on Dominion Nuclear North Anna Early Site Permit for North Anna.  The Commission is being asked to act on a Memorandum and Order responding to the issues and questions raised by the Commission in CLI-07-23 related to the issuance of an Early Site Permit for North Anna.  The Commission has voted to approve a Memorandum and Order which approves issuance of the Early Site Permit.  Commissioner Jaczko, dissenting in part, would have required the staff to supplement its environmental justice analysis prior to issuance of the North Anna Early Site Permit.  Would you please affirm your votes?

CHAIRMAN KLEIN: Aye.

COMMISSIONER JACZKO: Aye.

COMMISSIONER LYONS: Aye.

ANNETTE VIETTI-COOK:  That’s all I have.

CHAIRMAN KLEIN:  Any comments:

COMMISSIONER JACZKO:  If I could just say, I mean I think this is now the last of the original Early Site Permits that we had before the Commission and I think certainly it’s a credit to the staff for having moved through these and generally on the goals and schedules that the Commission had established.  So I think it’s certainly a testament that we can do these things, do a good thorough job, and get them completed and I think that they deserve a lot of credit for the work that they did. 

CHAIRMAN KLEIN:  And I think probably the next one will be more specific.  Thank you.  Meeting adjourned.
