NRC NEWS U.S. NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION OFFICE OF PUBLIC AFFAIRS -- REGION I 475 Allendale Road King of Prussia, PA 19406 No. I-03-007 February 14, 2003 CONTACT: Diane Screnci, (610) 337-5330 E-mail: opa1@nrc.gov Neil A. Sheehan, (610) 337-5331 NRC ASSIGNS NEW RESIDENT INSPECTOR TO GINNA NUCLEAR PLANT Nuclear Regulatory Commission officials in King of Prussia, Pa., have selected Mark Marshfield as the new resident inspector at the Robert E. Ginna nuclear power plant in Ontario, N.Y.

He joins Senior Resident Inspector Ken Kolacayk at the Rochester Gas and Electric plant.

Marshfield replaces Chris Welch, who was reassigned to the Pilgrim nuclear plant in Plymouth, Mass.

Marshfield joined the NRC in August. He served in the United States Navy for 22 years, as a submarine officer, Director of the Navy Nuclear Power School in Orlando, Fl., and as Commanding Officer for Navy Recruiting District, Buffalo. He earned a bachelors of science degree in physics from the United States Naval Academy in Annapolis, Md., and a masters of science in nuclear engineering from the Georgia Institute of Technology in Atlanta.

Each U.S. commercial nuclear power plant has at least two NRC resident inspectors. They serve as the agency's eyes and ears at the facility, conducting regular inspections and monitoring significant work projects.

The Ginna resident inspectors can be reached at 315/524-6935.
