Dresden Nuclear Power Station, Unit 2 issued the following announcement on Feb. 17.
The Nuclear Regulatory Commission has selected Gerond A. George as the new senior resident inspector at the Indian Point Unit 3 nuclear power plant. The plant is operated by Entergy and is located in Buchanan (Westchester County), N.Y. George’s prior assignment was as a senior reactor inspector at the NRC Region IV office in Arlington, Texas.
He joined the agency in June 2003 as a reactor inspector in the Region IV office. George holds a bachelor’s degree in mechanical engineering and aerospace engineering from the Oklahoma State University-Stillwater.
He also earned a master’s degree in mechanical engineering from the University of Texas-Arlington. “We’re pleased to have an inspector with Mr. George’s experience and capabilities on-site at Indian Point as Unit 3 goes through this important period during which it will prepare for permanent cessation of operations,” said NRC Region I Administrator David Lew. Each U.S. commercial nuclear power plant has at least two resident inspectors who monitor day-to-day operations. They serve as the agency’s eyes and ears at the facility, conducting inspections and monitoring significant work projects.
