The
NRC is offering these small group meetings as opportunities for
productive discussions on how the NRC fulfills its regulatory mandate
for protecting public safety and the environment. Those invited to
participate are recognized as community leaders, who could then share
the information with their constituency and the public at large.
These
small group discussions will focus on process issues concerning the
NRC’s review, rather than specific areas of the staff’s technical
analysis. They do not replace the larger public meeting the staff will
conduct. That meeting will occur after Southern California Edison has
submitted, and the NRC staff has completed our inspection and technical
evaluation of, SCE’s response to the NRC’s Confirmatory Action Letter
(CAL).
This
new effort will consist of multiple small group gatherings in
California with state elected officials, local elected officials,
environmental non-governmental organizations, and economic development,
energy, and local union/building and trade representatives.
The
discussion will include 15-20 participants with three to four NRC
representatives and a facilitator. The NRC’s objective is to maintain
the small group size to promote frank, two-way discussions and dialogue.
The
discussions will be closed to public observation. The information
discussed as part of this effort will be placed on the NRC SONGS special webpage prior to the discussions. No decisions about restart will be announced at these gatherings.
