Oyster Creek Nuclear License Transfer Decision Expected in Summer

The Nuclear Regulatory Commission is likely to render its decision on the Oyster Creek Nuclear Generating Station license transfer application that would, if approved, allow Holtec Decommissioning International to kick-start the process of retiring the defunct plant by July 1.

Exelon Generation, which operated Oyster Creek until it shut down in September 2018, along with HDI, part of the Camden-based Holtec International energy conglomerate, submitted the license transfer application on Aug.
