Subject:
NRC Transparency
Dear Chairman Jaczko:
The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) has maintained that it is a transparent agency affording members of the public ample opportunity to participate in NRC meetings held with agency licensees so that the public may better understand the operations of the agency.
However, recent scheduling activities by the NRC demonstrate that the agency holds little regard for the public's interest and availability to attend and participate in scheduled NRC public meetings.
For example: the NRC currently has the following public meetings scheduled:
October 3rd, at 9am central time - Entergy Operations - regulatory conference - public meeting October 3rd, at 1pm eastern time - North Anna Earthquake AIT - Public Meeting October 3rd, at 1pm eastern time - Browns Ferry Nuclear Plant - public meeting As can be seen from the above, the NRC's scheduling process leaves much to be desired and seriously limits the public's ability to attend the agency's schedule public meetings. Thus, the public is FORCED to choose which NRC meeting to attend!
It is respectfully requested that the Commission ORDER its subordinate Regional Offices to reschedule the above meetings to allow members of the public a fair opportunity to attend ALL of the above scheduled public meetings. Moreover, please ensure that all future NRC public meetings are coordinated to permit members of the public to attend each meeting.
