Dapas said. Greives joined the NRC in June 2009 after serving seven years in the United States Navy’s nuclear power program. During his naval service, he was a staff instructor at the Naval Nuclear Power Training Command and served aboard the USS Wyoming, a nuclear submarine. He is now a lieutenant in the Navy Reserve. Greives is a graduate of Bucknell University where he earned a bachelor’s degree in electrical engineering.

They serve as the agency's eyes and ears at the facility, conducting inspections, monitoring major work projects and interacting with plant workers and the public.
