    The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) has released a final environmental impact statement (EIS) assessing the potential environmental effects of renewing the operating licenses for Oconee Nuclear Station, Units 1, 2, and 3 in South Carolina for an additional 20 years. This site-specific EIS, known as NUREG-1437, Supplement 2, found that the environmental impacts are manageable and recommended that license renewal be considered as a viable option.

The document is available for public viewing online, at the NRC, and at a local library in Seneca, SC.
