I'm I'm seeing this Farm too so I think
we're okay to get started more folks uh
uh join us we will
um
so
um thanks everybody for uh meeting this
will be our fourth meeting of the year I
appreciate
um the ultimate in person and those for
those of you follow too
um introduction is here in just a moment
but I think for the most part here
uh we're gonna spend we did not uh a
recipe for today
um I was trying to focus on on the kind
of medical side
um but we will look into those Topics by
being found in our next meeting but we
do want to spend a fair amount of time
going through the annual reports
um any updates changes
um
and uh
[Music]
um
so since we won't see each other for
um
you know at savings time to turn our
turning our clocks back I thought a
safety message this morning would be
just as you get
um to that which is in um
it's a good time to also go ahead and
check the rest of the critical kind of
Emergency Response equipment in your
house like smoke detector batteries and
other carbon monoxide and the things
that our safety devices in their home
that run on batteries
[Music]
um
and with that I think we will quickly
just I think for the record we'll go
around the room and into the
um
virtual and introduce each other so
okay Bill bursco George Washington
University
partnership
um
foreign energy
and um David do you want to go ahead
sure David David that's not with the
evangelists
oh yeah
thank you
oh yeah and Tara sorry if you want to
introduce yourself
okay
all right okay
um so like I said we'll get into
um the annual reports on Ryan to give
the ability to share the draft
um do you want your draft or do you want
this year
[Music]
for the annual report
um
this is slightly I would say slimmed
down from our previous versions to be
more direct to the activities of the
year as we talked about last year
um that was one of the changes we made
so we're not repeating information
that's been in past reports um that's
kind of in the archives um so this is
really focused on the strategy and
recommendations and
activities for
um The Authority for for a new year
and then I will
after we go through kind of our portion
of the report I'll turn over to April
for updates on you know kind of walking
through the v-neck
update as well
um I can make that bigger if I need to
so yeah this will allow us if we have
other edits we can make these in real
time and then the Ryan of the Virginia
industry staff in um incorporate all
these into that into the final draft but
we can we can vote on
changes and
the final versions
Brian do we want to walk into my changes
the ones that I set first of course you
can see them
and I'm just gonna let you drive and
I'll scroll design okay yeah
um so I think
or if you saw the track changes in there
it was just uh when I am yeah there we
go okay I just want to make sure
everything is better so anyway to make
that launcher of course
about
[Music]
I can try and tell you the lights as
well if
foreign
agenda
[Music]
the first added bullet is expanding the
coordination and information exchange
with other fatigue stakeholder groups
including regular briefing opportunities
energy Delta lab leadership
thought this was consistent with kind of
an energy plan and the focus on on
Southwest
um
expanding the coordination and
information exchange no no sorry sorry
the the final the final book we can go
ahead if it's okay with everybody we can
reduce them we can take this session
so this was um we talked about how we
provide updates
um on what's going on kind of in other
states I think one thing that's been an
interesting activity both for the
authority and
this Consortium is disappointing this
year specifically has been looked at as
an example for other states
um
and I know I've had
two groups excuse me three conversations
with folks in Kentucky West between
Idaho I know April has had multiple
conversations as
her in her capacity on the Consortium
with states that are looking to do
exactly what Virginia has been doing
um so that was just trying to capture
um bad activity
any other
comments or changes on the authority
meeting activities we'll get to the
asset inventory when we actually look at
those
anything Ronnie or David on the phone
that you guys have are on the zoom
no nothing
no I'm okay thank you
hey
um yeah
keeps falling down
so this was just adding a little bit
more to
Radiance presentation specifically to
identify the highlighted the spark
Virginia eventually being held down the
Commonwealth for
participations from any organizations as
part of the authority
and this was just adding a little bit
more to do for students presentation
about the current activities the
collaboration that is available for the
authority with the King
just trying to fly things that would be
relevant I think especially to the
general assembly members that may look
at this
curricular updates
um and then this was just updating a
little bit more on what
um what Simon shared with us during our
last video on that on the polling and
the parties that participated in that
in the study
any other comments or changes on the
presentations
for organizations yep
perfect
I think those are the main areas of
comment the that I had and then just
some changes to the way we list the
appendixes
um
towards the end with
the order just so we know we're putting
in the v-neck update
um
and
uh board members
did folks have other comments editions
questions
um
the last page as the one that says
put right there in that paragraph it
said that uh the Consortium was formally
launched in 2015 and now has been in
operation for over three years is there
some significance of three years that
it's been a lot of work for three years
so yeah
okay but that is technically what we did
officially because
I remember today I just was wondering if
there was some significance that you
know that the law said that if you went
if you were able to last three years
yes
you want to go over everybody has in
their packet
um
the the next one is coming through
report
um
and then the big thing is you know
looking at what we're going to do is
being prepared for next year because
but we did
not overview
ask the question about membership
I yes I think that's been a great thing
this year for the Consortium I'm
wondering if it's worth saying anything
about new members or
indicating folks that join this year
yeah
[Music]
um
those are the two new ones this year
everything else goes to the same spot
remember what came in at the end of last
year
that we may get a couple more this year
um
but I will tell you
um we get talked as a board that
um
we are going to have a conversation
quite a lot
it's getting 8 to 14 is a little bit of
management and so we are going to do a
little bit more on the communication and
make sure that everybody is
I just want to make sure we have gotten
requests from a lot of organizations
employee
um
for instance I think Fusion is great
our mission right now to pass members
I'm sort of speaking with the um
the number of participants
yeah I mean it's almost doubled right so
and I'll probably just say last two
years
[Music]
um you all came back karaoke came on
um
that shows increasing interest in them
topics
yeah and you know I don't go into this
cause but I think more calls even
looking at kind of coordinating
together
North Carolina Tennessee is now
conversations
states trying to work together a little
bit more all right
and any
um questions
foreign
next year
we should pretty sure include the
Strategic plan on the agenda
so obviously hopefully it's more
updating than we
rewriting but a lot has happened since
I just think from a large standpoint so
it's not July
and we're starting to open a time to
update let's let's
tackle that or begin to tackle that
yeah beginning of the year
I think
um but
um we probably
us at the same time but I but it is
definitely not a radar to make sure we
have a lot of good conversations about
it going into this
next phase
even one of the reasons start early is
just a little bit yes
it's a lot easier to get a hold of
hearing from it so it's going to take a
lot more planning than getting people
attended and it's going to be so much
virtual assistant
so maybe it's a good you know Brian I
just broke down but I think in our in
our quinoa eating
we should review what was you know we
can send out the Strategic plan from
that we have and then maybe it's it's
not you know part of the brainstorm
updates but it's more of the world map
how how it gets done I think it'd be
nice if that first meeting to people who
come again
you know in thinking about what are the
big things you know yeah nothing has to
be written
foreign
okay
um any any other comments on the
annual reporters in the next question I
just want to make sure to go through the
assets
questions
[Music]
nothing from me and no questions either
thanks
I'm fine thank you
and I see Randy have fun to joined us as
well I mean we're just going over the
annual report were there any
um changes or comments that you've had
um
no thank you very much
we actually need to vote on Virtual
participation
[Music]
Okay so
um
do I have a motion to do I need to I
forget the actual text
but if you just say it's participation
members it's going to not forget more
live emotion to allow virtual
participation by Authority members so
tell me the second by Andrew
okay
um I think we could do a real call right
each is just about this one's fine okay
all in favor I opposed
okay so begin this approval
s
all right
um
so I would like us to take a minute if
you haven't already because I know Scott
and I talked about this before but we
want to discuss a little bit more time
on the asset inventory to make sure that
we're not missing stuff I already have
one because
yes
um but if folks can look not only at
their own organization
um but others that are on the inventory
if you see things that are no longer
relevant or you see that need to be
updated in other other fashion employees
particularly specifically so making sure
universities
okay I will share because there's
certainly considered a rooster
who's in the years
they may have misprinted okay yeah
I will share my screen
[Music]
educational institutions
[Music]
that was a misunderstanding on my part
yeah I I usually just put it myself but
you know they said
um
would it be helpful with the emotion
test can you imagine
some of this because
I know they were
you know acquired for example
by Imagine
on this page that's on the screen right
now
foreign
this is Ronnie
um just a question is Jefferson a lab
National Lab
yes okay okay thank you I didn't there
it is I see it thank you
[Music]
chocolate
[Music]
um
[Music]
under on the utilities page we need to
add AEP
slash application
is
[Music]
um innovation
[Music]
basically yeah
and um
10 years ago
Ryan I've got an update
itself
[Music]
but since Ka
well um foreign
Excel services
we should take them off but
I don't even sure how Don ended up as
chairs
and they don't really have operations
let me change the revenue to 2.23
billion and that's how many years
uh so 6700 uh seven thousand
thank you
um
perfect
distribution staff that we need to go to
that page so the university we can just
make sure that
is
correctly okay
um
right here
come on
oh my God
there's a lot if this restarts again
it came to mind
involvement
s
[Music]
okay
I think others
to
[Music]
direct the staff review staff to go
through this list
I think um
perfect
so can I offer modifications with me so
I think um
Scott's offering a motion for Virginia
energy staff to do due diligence check
of the asset inventory for uh
the key information
[Music]
under the same name but just a due
diligence check prior to the asset
inventory going into that uh
wait a second
all in the paper all right
the post
okay
all right are there any other comments
on any of the items like materials
so I think the plan will be
[Music]
um
we'd like to
entertain a motion on approval of the
annual report with revisions
approved today basically to allow staff
to
do revisions as necessary it's outlined
by the board and then submit it without
having to like redo through them right
so this is sort of so the process then
is
um staff will update
the address as we talked about today it
will be submitted to leadership at
Virginia energy and then Force the
middle to the assembly and the governor
um this call if there are any issues or
significant changes that come back from
um anybody in the review cycle at
Virginia energy Ryan and I have already
talked about that we still have the
option to do another virtual meeting
this year we've only done one so for the
guidelines we can come back together if
we need to
um and and vote on a
amended draft if there's significant
changes don't anticipate that it will be
but in the event that there is we'll
schedule that
all right so do I do I have a motion to
approve the annual report with the
changes
being made by Virginia energy staff
done second okay Bill all in favor uh
post
okay great ready
all right so speaking about
it
is this working okay
um well I'm going to start off a little
differently so earlier this month
um myself and a few others from the
state were able to go to MIT for a 3A
course on uh energy which was really
great
um I want to put it out there we all
have names that you would like me to
submit for the next year the course is
free you have to pay for your travel
good stuff but it was very well worth it
very valuable to Joe soon so beginning
here there's names of people you all
people find useful just to let me know
and I'll get them added to the list for
next Sunday
um this summer
Vivid Hub organization
um
got coincide for a month or so because
we were focusing on the Eda Tech of
um
that came out earlier this year
um me and I participated in two
applications one is for planning the
partnered with the Lynchburg Regional
online and then we are leading
Organization for a presentation for a
tech hub and the text of region is
basically Lynchburg to Southwest
um both areas of basically those
proposals are left they're just a little
different we just found why there's two
proposals at least when there's a lot of
interest so we just split it out that
way
a lot of the stuff is Boulder very
similar especially have more books
development but there is some emphasis
on what data
[Music]
um we are close to being down with the
governing documents we do have our 501c
or we just had a few more things that we
have to be doing set we're working on
but Bob Bailey is retired and he's been
helping us get through this so that is
where that's at
um
we have a Workforce working group and
we've had
one meeting or meeting again next week
I'm trying to come together on some
things that we
we want to make sure that we know what
all what what projects work
what's out there what we need to what
companies do
to support each other on What
legislation we need just to coordinate
together we have probably over 20 people
in the working group so it's a good
group of conversation and hopefully
they'll be able to do some work with
their education later this year as a
group um
[Music]
let's see
Virginia clean energy Summit is coming
up next month
um I think you'll remember about a year
and a half ago we did a virtual panel
with them
um there's actually a panel this year
so hopefully uh during the advancement
there it should be a good opportunity
for us to get out in front of this group
and really talk about what's going on
with the industry right now I'm pretty
excited about that panel
um
talked about
um uh we are working right now on
preparing for 24-4 legislation
this fall I'll be talking about where
we're at as an industry and some of the
things that we're going to want to be
looking at doing
during life I don't have specific Fields
put together yeah but we'll be having
those in the next few months or so
close again
um
and then yeah the working group supply
chain Center
um dates for um
where you have one group to see if we
can coordinate with or do it at the same
time but we should have dates with that
um later on this fall
it's so coordinating accidents with
Southwest Virginia so
um doing channels across the state
you're talking about
um Lena is the industry is our
activities
any questions
um one thing on the PDA Tech Hub
um is
April kind of alluded to it or talked
about the three I would say Focus areas
of that
proposal word
largely around
the workforce for the future that way
what are the what are the needs to both
launch
in the support industry in Virginia but
also
throughout the deployment of new
reactors outside of Virginia
um to go along with that was the
kind of supply chain infrastructure
needs and how that can be supported in
Virginia with
the look towards export out of the state
and then finally is more of an
aspirational call of have you deployed
the new things in in the Commonwealth
and that people would related to that
you know if we support the data centers
or other maybe non-traditional
applications as well as you know
traditional reactor but so I think it I
will give April a lot of credit
um it was not the easiest
process which it never is but I think
the final product both that came from
the uh the proposal from the business
that was led by the Lynchburg Regional
business Alliance or the planning Grant
as well as the larger designation
proposal the final products correction
very good
the stadium is strong position
um to win those engagements
in the event when that happens I would
encourage
um obviously they'll be you know an
update to the authority on on the status
but
um I think there's an opportunity for
engagement from many of the members on
this body in making it successful
um there'll be a lot of activity that's
needed but then hopefully they'll get
the resources that can support that as
well um but it's a good opportunity to
continue because
the infrastructure in the state
repetitive landscape of the business
there's over 300 applications
I know probably including
our applications there's probably three
or four others regarding YouTuber I
think Washington has won North Carolina
Tennessee
the key thing on that though is none of
those are in the region that Virginia is
competing right we're kind of in the
let's call it middle names correct
um
so from a
Energies
of energy type work where you can
increase
so feel free it's so pretty good that we
have a strong chance of getting these
models
thanks
um that nature is really within this
area you
are
[Music]
um
you put more thought into what that's
actually going to look like you need a
little bit of funding just possess facts
greater way to work more in designation
and I think it makes sense for what the
work we've done with this Hub we've done
a lot of this already
um people pre-prepared to do it but that
is this is it will actually have that
education have that you know that badge
so it means that's what it's going to be
yes
[Music]
thank you
any problems
all right
um so then the next is um just the
approval of the past minutes that folks
have reviewed those
I had one small client on the Travel
comments which is a difference in text
size yeah I've already fixed that
any other yeah
go ahead
I really was there
yes you were actually this is about the
third time I left off I know this guy
blacked out
maybe that was why you know
[Laughter]
I had another secret difference too but
yeah
um so also front on that acceptance it
says the following
were there so that's kind of a
problem we shouldn't say we're there but
it sounds like it's somewhere else
um but Tasha's last name that book
yeah I don't know if we had fishes
[Music]
and I would just say the following
provided
public comments
anything else
so I have a motion to approve the
minutes as amended
so good
John second by Scott
all in favor opposed
hey
oh
sorry that's okay so at the bottom where
we have reference to Simon
that all these titles got corrected in
the annual work with business
we yeah I was going to go back and fix
that because it's a functional this was
printed before I had your edits yeah I
just want to recognize that he's one of
um
all right so you're just going to make
it consistent
great
all right so we have any member updates
that we want to share subscribe
um
in August the announcements
the basically process
options
so
the first trance
several hundred kilograms of 2024 so
it's it's not everything everyone needs
everything off the Tuesday
[Music]
first course but it's suppose so now
I'll be
literally
y12
so that's why it's unanimously contract
is coming from
their programs
and all sorts of importance
of a really useful Haven feedstock
anything else
all right
um I think there's a lot of nuclear news
to provide anything
um but there's a lot of a lot of good
news
um going on so we'll continue to share
that as it comes out Ryan is another on
feel free to provide anything you see to
him but there's a lot of good news
it's got a little too there's
plenty coming out of the federal
government Department of energy
um supposedly a
larger request for proposals from the
Department coming out on Halo
any day now
um
is there any other updates
um so like I said unless there's a need
to we will not um meet again this year
um I appreciate everybody's
participation I think we've had
um some very engaging things this year
um continue to invite speakers that are
that are relevant and provide
create context for our discussions
um our plan I think will agree to try to
meet in early
um 2024 vinyl sets and dates out for
January we will use that one again as
our virtual meeting if that's okay for
everyone logistically this year will
help us
we don't have to travel
um and I think we will not only kind of
set the stage for what's already
happening or going to happen in the
legislative session
um we'll go over kind of the Strategic
plan please send that out um
we'll have Randy send that out
beforehand so they could review and come
to the to the meeting with our thoughts
on what we would like to see
um
um and then the last thing is if you
have um suggestions for speakers or
folks you think would be useful for the
group to hear from please feel free to
send us to Ryan for me and we will go
recruit them um to come help um
but otherwise unless there's any updates
I have any public comment
uh I don't think we have any numbers of
the public on the phone okay
so
unless there's anything else I
appreciate everybody joining us
