nuclear regulatory commission

The lawsuit accuses the Nuclear Regulatory Commission of violating the law when it granted an exemption to allow Palisades to return to operating status.

A person fell into the nuclear reactor cavity at the Palisades plant in Southwest Michigan on Tuesday. They were taken for a medical evaluation and have returned to work.

Operating status means the plant is allowed to receive new nuclear fuel. It is not yet generating power. It is the first nuclear plant in the U.S. to ever return to operations after going into decommissioning status.

Operators can now load fuel into the Palisades Nuclear Plant's reactor, though its owner still needs to pass more regulatory hurdles before it can come back online.

The owner of a shut-down nuclear power plant in southwest Michigan could try to bring it back online by the end of the year.

Holtec International has reported spending millions from its decommissioning trust fund for the nuclear plant on Lake Michigan. But decommissioning is no longer the plan.

Hundreds of workers are busy trying to make the Palisades nuclear plant the first decommissioned plant in the U.S. to ever come back online.

The groups want the Nuclear Regulatory Commission to reconsider its approach to approving a historic restart of the Palisades nuclear plant near South Haven.

The Nuclear Regulatory Commission is accepting comments on what it should consider in an environmental assessment of the proposal to reopen the Palisades Nuclear Plant in Southwest Michigan.

The U.S. Department of Energy is throwing a $1.52 billion lifeline to try and reopen the Palisades Nuclear Plant in southwest Michigan. Instead of working to eventually tear the hulking plant down, the plant's new owners are hoping to make history, becoming the first completely shuttered nuclear plant to restart operations.
