I am a NC resident who has worked in the nuclear power/nuclear energy field for more than 30 years. I have worked at Portsmouth Gaseous Diffusion facility in Piketon, OH where a uranium enrichment facility was operated. They employed, in the most part, mostly local personnel who were trained to operate the facility and its equipment. Most of the people working there were 2nd and 3rd generation people who found that a very good living came from doing an excellent job for the company they worked for. The facility operated for many many years with no impact on the local environment or populous. As long as GEH operates in compliance with USNRC regulations and oversight it would be very beneficial to the Wilmington area and a bonus to the personnel selected to work there.
