Decommissioning Stakeholders’ Fund-amental Rights http://www.fairewinds.org/decommissioning-stakeholders-fund-amental-rights/#sthash.6M3lH77I.KjNp3eXn.dpbs
By allowing nuclear energy corporations to raid nuclear plant decommissioning funds, the US Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) is granting an unreviewed and unregulated subsidy to the nuclear industry.  Hosted by Chris Williams of Citizens Action Network, Fairewinds Energy Education’s Arnie Gundersen details how Decommissioning Stakeholders’ Fund-amental Right$ are being trampled. - See more at: http://www.fairewinds.org/decommissioning-stakeholders-fund-amental-rights/#sthash.6M3lH77I.KjNp3eXn.dpuf
This public meeting focuses on Entergy’s Vermont Yankee decommissioning and its threats to run roughshod over Vermonters. Vermont Yankee is one of the six nuclear power plants currently beginning the decommissioning process.  This is a serious issue for all areas of the country since 8 or 10 additional nuclear plants are also considering decommissioning due to the cost of safety modifications as well as deteriorating equipment conditions that negatively impact safe plant operation.

Entergy to fight the state on use of decommissioning fund http://vtdigger.org/2015/03/08/entergy-fight-state-use-decommissiong-fund/

Please Note:
The NRC is accepting comments from the public on the Vermont Yankee Post-Shutdown Decommissioning Activities Report. The comment period will be open through March 23, 2015. Written comments can be submitted to: Cindy Bladey, Office of Administration, Mail Stop: 3WFN-06-A44M, U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission, Washington, D.C. 20555-0001, and via www.regulations.gov, using Docket No. 50-271. http://www.regulations.gov/#!home
