On July 1, the ownership transfer and acquisition of the Oyster Creek Generating Station from Exelon Generation to Holtec subsidiaries was completed. This comes after the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) approved on June 20 the transfer of Oyster Creek’s license to Holtec subsidiaries Oyster Creek Environmental Protection, LLC (OCEP), as owner, and Holtec Decommissioning International, LLC, as operator (HDI), for decommissioning (SF No. 1266 June 21, 2019). The three companies requested the license transfer in August 2018. Now that the purchase is finalized, OCEP and HDI plan to expedite decommissioning and dismantling of the plant. The license transfer includes the independent spent fuel storage installation (ISFSI) at Oyster Creek.
