PSC Statement re: AIM Pipeline

PSC Statement re: AIM Pipeline

New York's Department of Public Service (Public Service Commission) issued the following statement on 2/27/20 re: NRC's OIG report:

The NY PSC maintains its demand that the responsible federal agencies immediately conduct a rigorous and comprehensive safety and risk analysis of all of the large diameter gas pipelines in the vicinity of Indian Point, including the AIM pipeline and older Algonquin pipelines, and the risk they pose to Indian Point's workforce, nuclear power plants, densely packed spent fuel pools, and waste storage facilities. The re-analysis should be transparent and include peer-review by neutral third party risk analysts with significant experience in gas explosions and severe radiological accidents.
