The nuclear power facility is operated by Exelon Generation Co., LLC. Murray joined the NRC in 2008 as a reactor engineer in Region III. Prior to joining the agency, he served six years as a submarine officer in the U.S. Navy. Murray, from Orland Park, Ill., holds a bachelor's degree in electromechanical engineering from Loras College and a MBA from Webster University. Most recently, he was the Resident Inspector at the Duane Arnold nuclear plant in Palo, Iowa. "Rob Murray is an excellent inspector with a firm commitment to safety. He will help the NRC fulfill its mission of protecting people and the environment by ensuring the Quad Cities plant operates at the high standards set by the NRC," said Region III Administrator Cynthia D. Pederson. Each commercial nuclear power plant site in the United States has at least two NRC Resident Inspectors who monitor day-to-day operations at the plant.
