A.MENDED PETITION FOR REVIEW Riverkeeper, Inc. (hereinafter "Riverkeeper"), hereby petitions the Court for review of the final Order of Executive Director for Operations of the United States Nuclear Regulatory Commission ("NRC" or "Commission") in a 10 C.F.R. § 2.206 petition for action concerning Indian Point Nuclear Power Station, in which the NRC denied Riverkeeper's administrative petition requesting the immediate shutdown of Indian Point Units 2 & 3, entered on the 1 8th day of November, 2002, which pursuant to 10 C.F.R. § 2.206 (c) became final on the 1 3 th of December, 2002, twenty-five days after issuance.
Riverkeeper seeks review and reversal of the Director's Decision number DD-02-06, Nuclear Regulatory Commission docket numbers50-003, 50-247, and 50-286 on the grounds that it violates the Atomic Energy Act as amended and constitutes an abuse of the Commission's discretion and a complete abdication of its statutory duty under 42 U.S.C. § 2201(i) "to protect health and to minimize dangers to life or property." Pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2343, Riverkeeper seeks review in the Second Circuit Court of Appeals, where petitioner has its principal office.
A true copy of the final order of the Directors Decision, DD-02-06, is attached as Exhibit DATED:
