NRC approves V.C. Summer’s second license renewal
Dominion Energy’s V.C. Summer nuclear power plant, in Jenkinsville, S.C., has been authorized to operate for 80 years, until August 2062, following the renewal of its operating license by the Nuclear Regulatory Commission for a second time.
The ANS Standards Committee uses "ANS Collaborate" as an online collaboration tool. Each standards working group, subcommittee, consensus committee, special committee, and the Standards Board has its own password-protected site for document storage, messaging and notifications, balloting, and comment management to promote a more organized, efficient development of standards. Individuals with questions about ANS Collaborate for standards work may contact standards@ans.org.
Standards Committee members that have an established Collaborate account may access the site.
