NRC panel to hold hearing on post-Fukushima Daiichi orders
The Nuclear Regulatory Commission's Atomic Safety and Licensing Board has agreed to a Massachusetts group's request to hold a hearing about two orders the agency issued in the aftermath of the Fukushima Daiichi incident in Japan. The group, which opposes Entergy's Pilgrim nuclear plant, claims that the NRC orders fail to apply new safety measures to prevent problems like those that occurred in the Fukushima incident.
