Blue Castle Nuclear Project Closer to Filing Licensing Application
GREEN RIVER, UT--(Marketwire - Aug 19, 2011) - Blue Castle Holdings Inc., developer of the Blue Castle Nuclear Project, is progressing rapidly toward completing site characterization activities needed for the filing of a licensing application with the US Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) and for State and local permitting. Blue Castle has been conducting on-site and off-site investigations during the last 6 months to prepare an Early Site Permit application to the NRC. These investigations include: collecting meteorological data on-site, using a 60 meter collection tower, hydrological investigations employing multiple monitoring wells for groundwater characterization, and site response analysis using geotechnical core boring activities. Complementary off-site activities are focused on collection of terrestrial and aquatic ecology data for environmental stewardship purposes and demographic/socioeconomic data for characterization of the population and economic parameters important to the region.
