    Reading Time:about 16 minutes

    The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) is considering an application from Entergy Nuclear Operations and other parties to transfer control of licenses for the Big Rock Point and Palisades Nuclear Plants to Holtec, and to transfer Entergy's operating authority to Holtec Decommissioning International. The application, filed on December 23, 2020, seeks these changes without any physical changes to the facilities. The NRC invites public comments and is offering the opportunity to request a hearing or petition for intervention by specific deadlines provided in the notice. Public comments will be considered, but they will not be part of the formal decision-making process.

    Simple Explanation

    The NRC is thinking about letting some companies give control of two nuclear plants to another company called Holtec, and they want people to give their opinions and maybe talk about it. They're making sure nothing changes about the plants themselves, just who's in charge.

    The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) is requesting public comments on a draft environmental assessment and a draft finding of no significant impact related to resuming power operations at the Palisades Nuclear Plant in Michigan. This includes considering requests for exemption, license transfer, and amendments. The U.S. Department of Energy, as a cooperating agency, is also evaluating federal financial support for refueling the plant. The NRC's preliminary assessment indicates that the actions would not significantly impact the environment, and comments are accepted until March 3, 2025.

    Simple Explanation

    The government is checking if it's okay for a power plant in Michigan to start making electricity again, and they want to know what people think about it. They believe it won't harm the environment, and anyone can share their thoughts until March 3, 2025.
