Attachments: Media Alert 12-12-13.docx Sorry, my first attempt did not work!

Allison I hope you can attend at least part of the meeting and ask a question or two as posted on the NRC blog:

There's a long way to go on San Onofre restart review

+

Suggestion: These meetings should also include the best previously "submitted" questions besides taking some calls from the general public, especially since even one technical question could take a minute to pose to the meeting members! These questions could be emailed to the NRC in advance for posting on a blog, where others might be able to comment upon them increasing their popularity, which then could be used to choose the ones to ask at the meeting!
