On November 30, 2007, Riverkeeper and New York State (represented by the New York State Attorney General’s office and the Department of Environmental Conservation) filed intervention papers with the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) to formally oppose Entergy Nuclear Northeast’s application for the Indian Point nuclear power plant’s 20-year license extension. The intervention marks a major development in Riverkeeper’s six-year battle to force the retirement of the problem-ridden facility, located in Westchester County, New York – just 24 miles north of New York City.
