Seabrook - All About Seabrook's 20-Year License Renewal
What is License Renewal?
Similar to a driver's license that needs to be renewed to allow continued driving, a nuclear power plant also needs to renew its license to continue operating. This is a comprehensive multi-year process by which nuclear plant operating companies can apply to extend the operations of their plants for an additional 20 years beyond the original license term. A federal government agency -- the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) -- will thoroughly review the license renewal application of more than 1,900 pages. This process includes a safety and environmental analysis to ensure continued safe operation of the plant.Learn More
