Calvert Cliffs Nuclear Power Plant |
Publishing the environmental impact report is only part of the overall license review and the NRC is still working on its final safety evaluation report. The NRC says it’s Atomic Safety and Licensing Board is also investigating a challenge of the environmental review. NRC is also examining whether the applicant for the license, Unistar, meets NRC requirements regarding foreign ownership. Electricite de France is the principle partner in Unistar and they need a majority owner from the USA to qualify for a nuclear license. A foreign company cannot be a principle owner of an American nuclear power plant. (The Daily Record, 5/13/2011)
