Purpose:

The Nuclear Regulatory Commission staff will meet with the public to discuss the NRCs assessment of safety performance at the Pilgrim Nuclear Power Station during the 2018 calendar year, as described in the March 4, 2019, NRC annual assessment letter. Members of the public will have the opportunity to pose questions and offer comments to the NRC. The agenda is attached.

NRC Attendees: David C. Lew, Regional Administrator, Region I Daniel S. Collins, Director, Division of Reactor Projects, Region I Anthony Dimitriadis, Chief, Projects Branch 5, Division of Reactor Projects, Region I Bruce Watson, Chief, Decommissioning Branch, Office of Nuclear Materials Safety and Safeguards Elise Burket, Senior Resident Inspector, Pilgrim Public Participation: This is a Category 3 Meeting: Public participation is actively sought for this meeting to fully engage the public in a discussion of regulatory issues.

Members of the public and media may enter the Regency Ballroom beginning at 5:00 p.m. Prior to that, entrance to the main auditorium will be limited to NRC staff and contractors.

The NRC will conduct the meeting in an orderly fashion and will maintain an environment that encourages respectful discussion. Threatening language will not be tolerated and will be cause for removal from the meeting by local law enforcement. In addition, individuals who repeatedly disrupt the meeting will be removed from the auditorium. The meeting will be facilitated by Brett Klukan, Regional Counsel for NRC, Region I.

2 Members of the public who wish to speak during the meeting will be required to sign up prior to entering the Regency Ballroom. The order of public speakers will be determined by random selection, so there is no need to line up prior to 5:00 p.m. to reserve a place in the speaking order.

Since the NRC will be using a projector and laptop for its presentation, public attendees will be permitted to show up to three slides or pages (in PDF or PowerPoint format) when speaking. Slides must be emailed to Brett.Klukan@nrc.gov no later than March 22, 2019. Due to computer security concerns, the NRC will not be able to accept electronic media on site. The submission of slides, in advance of the meeting, does not guarantee any particular position in the speaking order, which will be determined, as stated, by random selection.

For security purposes, NRC and local law enforcement personnel will conduct searches of personal items (briefcases, purses, backpacks, equipment cases, etc.) outside the entrance to the main auditorium. No weapons of any kind are permitted. Any props should be fairly lightweight (i.e., would not injure a person if thrown or swung with force) and should not contain any metal fixtures or sharp edges.

Signs, banners, posters, and displays not larger than 18 x 18 are permitted in the meeting room, although sticks, poles, or other similar devices are prohibited. No tables or displays will be permitted inside the main auditorium.
