Diane Screnci, 610/337-5330 Email: opa1@nrc.gov Neil Sheehan, 610/337-5331 NEW NRC RESIDENT INSPECTOR ASSIGNED TO OYSTER CREEK NUCLEAR PLANT Ryan Treadway has been assigned as the new Nuclear Regulatory Commission Resident Inspector at the Oyster Creek nuclear power plant. He joins NRC Senior Resident Inspector Marc Ferdas at the plant, in Lacey Township, NJ. The plant is operated by Amergen.
Ryan Treadway brings with him the experience and commitment to safety that will help the NRC ensure that Oyster Creek conducts operations with the highest safety standards to protect public health and safety," said NRC Region I Administrator Samuel J. Collins.
Treadway first joined the NRC in October 2004 as a reactor engineer in the Region I Division of Reactor Projects. He later was assigned as an engineer in the Regions Division of Reactor Safety.
Prior to joining the NRC, Treadway served in the United States Navy for eight years.
Treadway was graduated from Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute in Troy, N.Y., with a bachelors degree in nuclear engineering/engineering physics. He is currently pursuing a masters in engineering management at Drexel University in Philadelphia.
Each U.S. commercial nuclear plant has at least two NRC resident inspectors. They serve as the agency's eyes and ears at the facility, conducting inspections, monitoring major work projects and interacting with plant workers and the public.
The Oyster Creek resident inspectors can be reached at 609/693-0702.
