NRC to Hold a Regulatory Conference with Entergy Operations May 21 to Discuss a Proposed Violation
The Nuclear Regulatory Commission will hold a regulatory conference on May 21 with officials from Entergy Operations to discuss the safety significance of a proposed violation. The proposed violation, identified in an inspection report, involves the company’s failure to properly maintain an emergency diesel generator, used to supply power to safety-related systems in the event of a loss of offsite power at the Waterford nuclear power plant in Killona, Louisiana.
The enforcement conference will be held at the NRC’s Region IV Office at 1600 East Lamar Blvd., Arlington, Texas, beginning at 9 a.m. Central time.
Company representatives will have the opportunity to provide their perspective or additional information, including any actions planned or completed to prevent recurrence of the issues, before the agency makes its final enforcement decision.
The meeting notice has information detailing how the public can participate in the meeting by phone or online. Members of the public will have an opportunity to ask questions of the NRC staff or provide comments about the issues discussed following the business portion of the meeting; however, the NRC staff is not soliciting comments pertaining to regulatory decisions.
No decisions on the final safety significance or any potential NRC actions regarding the proposed violations will be made at the meeting.
