Ha d it not been for NEC's advocacy with the Vermont Senate, the Vermont House of Representatives, the New Hampshire Legislature, the Massachusetts legislature, and the elected leaders of towns and cities throughout the tri-state area, and the resulting r esolutions, calls, and letters from those bodies and elected officials who recognized the seriousness of the proposition, the NRC would have conducted no additional inspection as a part of their uprate review process.
"NRC's announcement finally validates New England Coalition's work on this issue, and we expect the upcoming inspection will validate our concerns regarding the condition of Vermont Yankee and its lack of conformance to design basis," said Peter Alexander, NEC's executive director. However, we are deeply concerned that this inspection does not meet the scope and depth of the kind of diagnostic evaluations performed at other plants in crisis, such as Millstone, D.C. Cook, and Maine Yankee."
New England Coalition will also insist that the inspection process be open to state and citizen review. 'Twenty-five years of ongoing NRC inspections failed to keep track of missing fuel," said NEC Staff
