NRC Meets with Holtec to Discuss Re-Start of Dead Nuclear Power Plant

Kevin Kamps, Radioactive Waste Watchdog from Beyond Nuclear, talks about Monday’s pre-submittal meeting for Holtec Decommissioning International, LLC to discuss with the NRC staff its plan to submit a Quality Assurance Plan to support potential reauthorization of power operations at Palisades Nuclear Plant. The decommission plan has taken on new dangerous goals to re-start the 50-year-old plant, Kamps explains.
