Jun 12, 2009 (NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION DOCUMENTS AND PUBLICATIONS/ContentWorks via COMTEX) -- AZD | Quote | Chart | News | PowerRating -- Nuclear Regulatory Commission staff will hold two public meetings on Thursday, June 25, in Tonopah and Avondale, Ariz., to discuss the agency's environmental review of the Palo Verde Nuclear Generating Station, Units 1, 2 and 3, license renewal application.

The Palo Verde nuclear plants are pressurized-water reactors located in Maricopa County, Ariz., approximately 50 miles west of Phoenix. The current operating licenses for Palo Verde Units 1, 2 and 3 expire on June1, 2025, April 24, 2026 and Nov. 25, 2027, respectively. Arizona Public Service Company submitted the application for renewal Dec. 11, 2008, and supplemented the application by letter dated April 14.

"This is the first of several opportunities for the Palo Verde community to let us know what issues the NRC should look at while we review the potential environmental impacts of renewing the license," said David Wrona, a branch chief in the NRC's Division of License Renewal. "We'll consider all the comments and publish them in a 'scoping summary' as we move forward with our review."

The staff will start the first session at 2 p.m., at Tonopah Valley High School, 38201 West Indian School Road in Tonopah, and the second session at 7 p.m., at Estrella Mountain Community College, 3000 North Dysart Road in Avondale. Both sessions will follow the same format and cover the same material. The staff will briefly describe the agency's process for reviewing license renewal applications. Members of the audience will then have the opportunity to comment on environmental issues they feel the agency should consider in the review of the Palo Verde application. NRC staff will be available for informal discussions during an "open house" session an hour before each meeting. However, formal comments on the renewal will be accepted only during the meetings.

Members of the public may register to present oral comments at this meeting by June 18 by contacting NRC Project Manager, Lisa Regner, by telephone at 1-800-368-5642, extension 1906 or by e-mail at Lisa.Regner@nrc.gov. Those who wish to make comments may also register at the meeting within 15 minutes of the start of each session. Individual oral comments may be limited by the time available, depending on the number of persons who register. Those with special needs should contact Mrs. Regner by June 18.

The application is available on the NRC Web site at: http://www.nrc.gov/reactors/operating/licensing/renewal/applications/ palo-verde.html and a copy is also available at the Litchfield Park Branch Public Library, 101 West Wigwam Blvd., Litchfield Park, Ariz. 85340.

Members of the public may send written comments on issues to be considered in the Palo Verde environmental review by July 27 to: Chief, Rulemaking and Directives Branch, Division of Administrative Services, Office of Administration, Mailstop TWB 5B-01M, U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission, Washington, DC 20555-0001, or via e-mail to PaloVerdeEIS.Resource@nrc.gov.
