Power Generation
Siting and licensing power generation facilities requires a balance of social, economic, and environmental issues. NRC staff has extensive experience addressing environmental impact minimization for all types of generation facilities. These projects often utilize a broad range of NRC’s professional capabilities for completing various project components from baseline studies of aquatic and wildlife habitat to endangered resource surveys and regulatory coordination. NRC has completed numerous permit and relicensing applications for projects that require knowledge of incidental take processes.
