About
Physical decommissioning of the former Yankee Rowe plant was completed in 2007. The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) notified Yankee in August 2007 that the former plant site had been fully decommissioned in accordance with NRC procedures and regulations and formally approved Yankee Atomic’s Final Status Survey Reports in accordance with the License Termination Plan . The federal license for the site was reduced to the approximately 2 acres surrounding the Independent Spent Fuel Storage Installation site.
The 2007 milestone marked the full decommissioning of the plant with all plant buildings removed, the site remediated and restoration complete. The project was performed safely and complied with the radiological cleanup standards required under the state and federal regulations. [1]
