The Master Terms further provide that no reimbursements from the trust funds will be made for any costs for which the Trustee, Northern Trust, receives written notice of objection from the NRC Director Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation within the thirty (30) working day review period. Any such notice should be directed to EGC and to the Northern Trust addressed to Stacy Ryband, Vice President, 50 South LaSalle Street, M-28, Chicago, Illinois (sr90 @ntrs. com). Northern Trust will not make any disbursements from the funds until after thirty (30) working days from the date of this written notice to the NRC. Furthermore, Northern Trust will not make any disbursements for any Decommissioning Costs to which the NRC objects within the 30 working day period or prior to disbursement.
