Victor Dricks, 817-200-1128 NRC Names New Resident Inspector at the Grand Gulf Nuclear Power Plant The NRC has selected Anthony Smallwood as the new resident inspector at the Grand Gulf nuclear power plant in Port Gibson, Mississippi.
Smallwood worked as an engineer in the auto, oil, and gas industries prior to joining the NRC in 2020. He holds a Bachelor of Science degree in mechanical engineering from Texas Tech University, and a masters degree in engineering management from Old Dominion University. He is a Navy veteran.
Anthony Smallwood has a strong commitment to safety. His presence at Grand Gulf will help the NRC fulfill its mission of protecting people and the environment and ensure that operators of the Grand Gulf plant meet the high standards set by the NRC, NRC Region IV Administrator Scott Morris said.
Each U.S. commercial nuclear power plant site has at least two NRC resident inspectors.
