Dear Friends of Vermont,

 

Just a reminder about tomorrow’s [THURSDAY, JULY 28 – ct]  NRC meeting regarding lessons learned (so far) from Fukushima Japan to Fukushima, New Jersey, Vermont, Massachusetts, etc. This is likely to be just the first of many such meetings so don’t feel too bad if you can’t make it.  I hope to present on behalf of New England Coalition on process as well as safety and regulatory topics.  Please excuse duplication if you have already received this meeting notice.   The NRC task force report may be found on the NEC website: www.necnp.org  OR www.newenglandcoalition.org .

 

Thanks,

Ray
