FirstEnergy officials will meet with members of the Nuclear Regulatory Commission Nov. 26 at the agency's Rockville, Md. headquarters.

The utility is expected to talk about boric acid found at the bottom of the reactor head at Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station. Tests have been inconclusive about where the substance is coming from.

Also, the two sides will talk about a new leak detection system FirstEnergy officials are considering for the Davis-Besse, as well as modifications being made to one of the emergency back-up systems.
