    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 decision considers Duke Energy's reports, NRC’s independent reviews, consultation with government agencies, and public comments. The document is available for public viewing online, at the NRC, and at a local library in Seneca, SC.
