The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) is considering requests to amend the licenses for the Palo Verde Nuclear Generating Station in Arizona. These amendments are proposed to not involve any significant hazards and are open for public comment until February 13, 2025. If interested, people can also request a hearing or submit a petition by March 17, 2025. Additionally, there are procedures to access certain sensitive information related to the amendments for those preparing to contest in a hearing.
