No: I-13-042 December 5, 2013 CONTACT: Diane Screnci 610-337-5330 Neil Sheehan 610-337-5331 NRC Assigns New Resident Inspector to Pilgrim Station Nuclear Regulatory Commission officials in King of Prussia, Pa., have selected Brian Scrabeck as the new resident inspector at the Pilgrim nuclear power plant in Plymouth, Mass. Scrabeck joins NRC senior resident inspector Max Schneider at the plant, which is operated by Entergy Nuclear.

Scrabeck joined the NRC May 20, 2012, as a project engineer in the Region I Division of Reactor Projects. Prior to joining the agency, Scrabeck worked at the James A. FitzPatrick plant in Scriba, N.Y., as a senior reactor operator. He served in the United States Navy as a submarine officer aboard the USS Parche, and in the United States Marine Corps as a reconnaissance marine and cryptologic linguist. Scrabeck earned a bachelor of science in aerospace engineering from the U.S. Naval Academy and a masters in engineering management from Old Dominion University.

Brian has the training, experience and commitment to safety that is needed for the NRC to carry out its mission of protecting people and the environment, and he will help ensure the safe operations of Pilgrim, said NRC Region I Administrator Bill Dean.

Each U.S. commercial nuclear plant has at least two NRC resident inspectors. They serve as the agencys eyes and ears at the facility, conducting inspections, monitoring major work projects and interacting with plant workers and the public. Resident Inspectors can be assigned to any one site for up to seven years.

The Pilgrim resident inspectors can be reached at 508-747-0565.
