The finding comes just weeks after the NRC completed a performance review of the Oyster Creek plant in Lacey Township.
During the process, NRC technical staff reviewed the plant's performance indicators for the most recent quarter and inspection results for 2009.
"Overall, Oyster Creek operated in a manner that preserved public health and safety and fully met all cornerstone objectives," David Lew, director of the NRC Division of Reactor Projects, stated in a letter this week to plant owner Exelon Corp.
Oyster Creek opened in December 1969 and produces about 9 percent of New Jersey's electricity. It had won a 20-year renewal of its operating license in April 2009.
