A 10338

This bill establishes labor protections for workers at the Indian Point Nuclear Power Plant during any transfer, sale, lease, or decommissioning of the facility. It requires that any entity acquiring or operating the plant must pay employees at least the prevailing wage for the locality, and mandates that the current workforce be maintained through the conclusion of any ownership transfer and, to the extent practicable, through the decommissioning process. The bill specifically ensures that existing collective bargaining agreements remain in force and that security personnel must be retained throughout the entire decommissioning period. Additionally, it requires the Public Service Commission to enforce these provisions before approving any transfer of the plant, and establishes that new hires should come from the existing employee pool when practicable.
