NRC Meeting on the Nuclear Ship Savannah

NRCgov posted a photo:

NRC staffers hold a meeting on board the Nuclear Ship Savannah, docked in Baltimore, to accept public comments on the vessel’s License Termination Plan. The hybrid session is the first time the NRC has conducted a public meeting aboard a seagoing vessel. As the Savannah nears the end of a multi-year decommissioning process, the U.S. Maritime Administration submitted the termination plan for NRC review. It spells out how the final steps will be carried out, including thorough checks for any residual radioactivity. The Savannah was defueled in 1971 and its reactor vessel removed at the end of 2022.

NRC Commissioner Annie Caputo visiting sites important to Canada’s nuclear industry, including a trip to the McArthur River Mine. Located in northern Saskatchewan, it is one of the world’s largest high-grade uranium mines. The uranium from this mine is processed at the Key Lake Mill – which she also visited -- with the fuel supporting Canada’s nuclear power sector, which includes the Darlington Nuclear Generating Station – another stop on the itinerary. In this photo, they’re 2,000 feet underground in the McArthur River mine, in front of Cameco’s uranium mining equipment!
