RE: ACTION: Alignment on Oyster Creek LR Commitments inspection comm strategy Thanks, and given the recent licensing board memo, this will change the comm strategy going forward.

RE: ACTION: Alignment on Oyster Creek LR Commitments inspection comm strategy Based on OC's current rate of progress [or lack there of], Friday would be the earliest that we might have any real info to share, regarding drywell integrity (e.g., UT readings).

RE: ACTION: Alignment on Oyster Creek LR Commitments inspection comm strategy Thanks for that insight Marjey. I welcome feedback from John and Rich on this. A consideration I have is the value in contacting her now vs. later, given the duration of the inspection and the impression it sends if we call her too much later. It also depends on the purpose of our interaction with her.

'Darrell, My only comment on the plan relates to the call with Dr. Lipoti. Given John's latest note about the delays the nave experienced (particularly with the sandbed region), do you think it may be worth holding off on the call until early next week?

Whenever you would like to have it, let me know and I will inform her (as well as the NJ SLO, Paul Baldauf, and the NJDEP BNE Manager Pat Mulligan - who I would propose should have the opportunity to be on the line.) to make arrangements.

ACTION: Alignment on Oyster Creek LR Commitments inspection comm strategy Folks, The purpose of this email is to gain alignment on a proposed communications approach for the ongoing license renewal commitments inspection and upcoming exit meeting (Nov. 6) and later the inspection report issuance.

We could have a meeting, but I thought this would be a quicker approach given all of our schedules. After hearing from you, I plan to inform Marc of our approach this Wednesday or Thursday.

Late last Friday afternoon, we discussed a potential strategy for outreach with several considerations, given the current level of interest in related issues at OC.

We discussed several key milestones and approaches.

The milestones:

1) The 71003 Inspection completes next week (closed exit meeting is Nov. 6);

2) Plant restart following the current refueling outage (and potential for stakeholders to weigh in to the Commission regarding blockage of the restart). Restart is currently expected to be the week after completion of the inspection.

3) Issuance of the inspection report (publicly available) within 45 days of the exit meeting. There would need to be a thorough communication strategy for this report, as it might draw media interest and certainly will stoke the interest of stakeholders. Any communications would need to remain sensitive to current litigation and petition proceedings regarding the license renewal review.
