NFS Receives 25-Year License Renewal

The Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) Thursday renewed the operating
license of Nuclear Fuel Services Inc. (NFS) in Erwin for an additional
25 years.

The action prompted a positive reaction from NFS officials and an
angry response from longtime critics of the Unicoi County operation.

NFS has been operating on a 10-year license that expired on July 31, 2009.

The approval “means that the (NRC) has concluded that no safety or
environmental issues preclude renewal of the plant’s license,” NFS
spokeswoman Lauri Turpin said in a news release.
