Publicmeeting

Dresden Nuclear Power Station, Unit 2 issued the following announcement on Feb. 6.

Nuclear Regulatory Commission staff will meet with the public on Feb. 13 in Hampton, N.H.,

to provide information on licensing actions involving the Seabrook nuclear power plant. The meeting

will begin at 6 p.m., at the Best Western Plus – The Inn at Hampton, 815 Lafayette Rd.

NextEra, the owner and operator of the Seabrook, N.H., plant, applied to the NRC in June 2010

for a 20-year license extension for the facility. In notifications issued on Jan. 11, the NRC staff

indicated that it intended to issue a license amendment on concrete degradation at the plant on or about

Jan. 22, and a renewed license for Seabrook on or about Jan. 30.

In response to significant public interest, the staff issued new notifications on Jan. 22 stating

that the issuance of the licensing actions was being delayed and that staff intended to meet with the

public to discuss the planned actions.

During the Feb. 13 public meeting, NRC staff will discuss its reviews and activities performed

in these areas to support the agency’s decision making and give an opportunity for the public to provide

feedback and ask questions regarding the NRC’s activities and plans. Registration for those seeking to

speak will begin at 5:30 p.m.

The meeting will be transcribed and the information provided will be reviewed.
