    The Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) is seeking public input on its draft document, Supplement 15, Second Renewal, related to extending the operating license of the Virgil C. Summer Nuclear Station in South Carolina for an additional 20 years. Two alternatives to the proposed extension are being considered: taking no action or using alternative sources for replacement power. The NRC will host a virtual public meeting on December 17, 2024, and an in-person meeting on January 9, 2025, to discuss the proposal and invites public comments by January 21, 2025. The draft document evaluates the environmental impacts of the license renewal, and the NRC believes that these impacts do not outweigh the benefits of maintaining the renewal option.
