NRC names new inspector at Oconee Nuclear

The Nuclear Regulatory Commission in Atlanta named Jason Parent today as a resident inspector for the Oconee Nuclear Station.  At the three-unit site licensed to Duke Energy, Parent joins Senior Resident Inspector Eddy Crowe and Resident Inspector Natasha Childs.  Each operating U-S commercial nuclear plant site has at least two government inspectors.  They serve as the agency’s eyes and ears, conducting regular inspections, monitoring significant work projects, and interacting with plant workers and the public.  The Oconee resident inspectors can be reached at 864/882-6927.
