NRC meets Con Ed over N.Y. nuke inspection on May 3
  
NEW YORK, April 28 (Reuters) - The Nuclear Regulatory 
Commission (NRC) said Friday it will meet with Consolidated 
Edison Inc. <ED.N> on May 3 to discuss the radiation leak at the 
Indian Point 2 nuclear unit in New York earlier this year. 

The NRC said in a statement it will discuss the root cause analysis 
performed by Con Ed, past and current steam generator 
inspections and other associated technical issues. 

The 931-megawatt Indian Point 2 unit, located in Buchanan, N.Y. 
on the shores of the Hudson River about 35 miles north of New 
York City, shut on February 15 when radioactive water leaked from 
a crack in one of the thousands of tubes inside one of the plant's 
four steam generators. 

Steam generators are components that transfer heat from the 
reactor systems to the power-generating portion of a nuclear power 
plant. 

The meeting will be open to the public at an agency office in 
Rockville, Md.
