The health and safety of our employees, the public, and the environment is our top priority. The Palisades Phase I decommissioning organization is staffed with former Palisades employees – the same nuclear professionals who operated Palisades in the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission’s (NRC) highest safety category. Palisades uses sophisticated technology to monitor all aspects of the environment in and around the plant, including air quality, soil, and water. The facility is equipped with multiple layers of backup safety equipment.
The NRC will continue to provide independent federal oversight throughout the decommissioning process.
