NRC TO MEET WITH ENTERGY TO DISCUSS PILGRIM PLANT PERFORMANCE


Nuclear Regulatory Commission staff will meet with representatives of Entergy Nuclear Generation Company on Thursday, March 28, to discuss the results of the agency's annual assessment of safety performance at the Pilgrim nuclear power plant. The facility is located in Plymouth, Mass., and operated by Entergy.

The meeting, which will be open to the public for observation, is scheduled to begin at 1 p.m. in the Governor Carver Meeting Room at the John Carver Inn, 25 Summer Street, Plymouth. Before the session is adjourned, NRC staff will be available to answer questions from the public on the safety performance of the Pilgrim plant, as well as the role of the NRC in ensuring safe plant operation.

The performance period to be discussed is April 1, 2001, to December 31, 2001. In addition, NRC staff will provide an overview of the agency's Reactor Oversight Process.

A letter sent from the NRC Region I office to Entergy addresses the performance of the plant during the period and will serve as the basis for the meeting discussion. It is available on the NRC web site at: http://www.nrc.gov/NRR/OVERSIGHT/ASSESS/LETTERS/pilg_2001q4.pdf

Current performance information for the Pilgrim plant is available on the NRC web site at: http://www.nrc.gov/NRR/OVERSIGHT/ASSESS/PILG/pilg_chart.html
