Federal regulators are preparing to conduct a readiness assessment ahead of the submission of the planned license termination plan for the former Oyster Creek Nuclear Generating Station in Lacey Township. Decommissioning of the plant is expected to be completed sometime next year.

“The goal essentially is to go over our informational needs for the license termination plan before it is submitted,” said Neil Sheehan, public information officer for the NRC’s Region 1.
