Streszczenie
On July 22, 2002 (67 FR 47745), the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) published for public comment a proposed rule that would amend its regulations in 10 CFR Part 72, "Licensing Requirements for the Independent Storage of Spent Nuclear Fuel, High-Level Radioactive Waste, and Reactor-Related Greater Than Class C Waste," for the geological and seismological criteria of a dry cask storage facility. The State of Utah has requested a 15-day extension of the comment period. In view of the importance of the proposed rule and the amount of time that the State of Utah says is required in order to provide meaningful comments, the NRC has decided to extend the comment period of the proposed rule for an additional 15 days. In a separate document, the NRC is also extending the comment period for the Draft Regulatory Guide DG-3021, "Site Evaluations and Determination of Design Earthquake Ground Motion for Seismic Design of Independent Spent Fuel Storage Installations and Monitored Retrievable Storage Installations," for an additional 15 days.
