Reporting Information

Hello,

My name is Marta Overstreet and I will be the site Manager for Clinton.  You can contact me at 815-830- 2029 or marta.overstreet@bhienergy.com.  Everyone will report directly to the in-processing bldg. at Clinton. The outage is scheduled for 23 days.  Clinton will shut down around midnight on 09/11/23.  We will be supporting Balance of plant activities.  Pre outage will be 40 hours a week.  The outage hours will be 6 12’s, possibly 7 12’s.  You will join the union at Clinton and will pay Union dues.  The outage start times will be 0600 or 0700 for dayshift and 1800 or 1900 for nightshift.  Please be on the lookout for your PHQ.  If it’s not in your email, check your junk mail.   You should also be getting the BHI Onboarding paperwork this could also be in your email or junk mail.  Please come prepared to work with safety shoes and long pants.  If you have a hardhat bring it with you.  If you do not have one, we will provide one.  Safety glasses will be provided.  Can’t wait to see you.

Important

You need 2 forms of ID.  One must be a valid government issued photo ID (valid {NOT EXPIRED} Driver’s license, State ID, or Passport), and the other should be your social security card or original birth certificate.

Important Notes for New Hires

If this is your first nuclear facility, here are a few tips to make your training phase flow smoother.  If you served in active military duty or discharged within the last 3 years and it was considered employment, you must provide a copy of your DD214.  You will need names, addresses, phone numbers and dates of all of your employers, within the last 3 years.  You will need to list all of your residences, including addresses, for the last 5 years.  You will need to list all arrests since your 18th birthday.  You must bring the arresting paperwork and proof of court disposition.  I cannot stress enough the importance of completing all security paperwork as honestly and as straightforward as you can.  Omission on your paperwork is reason for termination of unescorted access.
