Department of Environmental Protection Commissioner Bob Martin signed an Administrative Order creating an Oyster Creek Safety Advisory Panel to further enhance oversight of the safe operation of the nuclear power plant leading up to its closure by the end of 2019. The Oyster Creek Safety Advisory Panel will actively engage the public as it reviews ongoing operations and safety plans in the years leading up to plant closure. The Panel also will monitor Exelon's compliance with the Administrative Consent Order signed December 9, 2010, which is designed to ensure that the shutdown is executed in a safe, well-planned manner.
