On February 10, 2016 at approximately 0916 EST, Entergy provided a news release of updated findings from follow-up groundwater tests at Indian Point that confirm anticipated fluctuations in tritium levels. The most recent samples from on-site groundwater monitoring wells show elevated levels of tritium.

Entergy continues to provide voluntary notifications to state agencies and stakeholders. Sampling will continue to be taken regularly from the monitoring wells in accordance with plant procedures. The licensee notified the NRC Resident Inspector.
