BUCHANAN – The Nuclear
Regulatory Commission has named Justin Vazquez as the new resident inspector
at Indian Point nuclear power plant in Buchanan.
Vazquez joints Senior Resident Inspector Brian Haagensen and Resident
Inspector Andrew Siwy at Indian Point.
Vazquez began working for the agency in 2013 as part of the NRC’s
Nuclear Safety Professional Development Program.
He then was an engineer in the Materials Safety Licensing Branch in the
Office of Nuclear Materials Safety and Safeguards at NRC headquarters.
Most recently, he was a project engineer in the Region I Division of Reactor
Projects.
Each commercial nuclear reactor plant site in the US has at least two
resident inspectors who monitor day-to-day plant operations.
