This meeting will be open to the public.
The Regulatory Conference is being held to obtain information to assist the NRC in determining the safety significance of the preliminary White finding and associated apparent violations detailed in the referenced inspection report. The conference will provide an opportunity for you to present your perspective on the facts and assumptions used by the NRC to arrive at the finding, your assessment of the significance of the finding, and any other information that you believe the NRC should take into consideration in making an enforcement decision.
The NRC would appreciate receiving any supporting documents no later than Wednesday, January 7, 2015, in order to make the conference more effective and efficient.
