NUCLEAR REGULATORY 

COMMISSION 

Correction to Notice of Availability of 

Draft Generic Environmental Impact 

Statement for In-Situ Leach Uranium 

Milling Facilities 

AGENCY: Nuclear Regulatory 

Commission. 

ACTION: Correction to Notice of 

Availability. 

SUMMARY: On July 28, 2008, the U.S. 

Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) 

issued a notice for public comment of a 

Draft Generic Environmental Impact 

Statement (Draft GEIS) that identifies 

and evaluates on a programmatic basis, 

the potential environmental impacts 

from the construction, operation, aquifer 

restoration, and decommissioning at insitu leach (ISL) uranium milling 

facilities located in particular regions of 

the western United States (73 FR 

43795). 

In that notice, the NRC also provided 

information on eight public meetings to 

be hosted by the NRC that would allow 

the NRC staff to present an overview of 

the Draft GEIS and to accept oral and 

written public comments on the Draft 

GEIS from interested members of the 

public. Corrected dates and associated 

information is provided below for two 

of those meetings: 

Meeting Date: September 23, 2008, 7 

p.m. to 9:30 p.m. 

Meeting Location: Best Western Tower 

West Lodge, 109 North U.S. Highway 14 

& 16, Gillette, WY 82716, Phone (307) 

686–2210. 

Meeting Date: September 25, 2008, 7 

p.m. to 9:30 p.m. 

Meeting Location: Best Western 

Ramkota Hotel, 800 N. Poplar Road,

For each meeting, members of the 

NRC staff will be available for informal 

discussions with members of the public 

from 6 p.m. to 7 p.m. The formal 

meeting and associated NRC 

presentation will begin at 7 p.m. 

Interested persons may register to speak 

at the meetings. Depending on the 

number of speakers for a meeting, each 

speaker may be limited in the amount 

of time allocated for their comments so 

that all speakers will have an 

opportunity to offer comments. 

DATES: The public comment period on 

the Draft GEIS began on July 28, 2008, 

and continues until October 7, 2008. 

Written comments should be submitted 

as described in the ADDRESSES section of 

this notice. The NRC will consider 

comments received or postmarked after 

that date to the extent practical. 

ADDRESSES: Members of the public are 

invited and encouraged to submit 

comments on the Draft GEIS to the 

Chief, Rulemaking, Directives, and 

Editing Branch, Mailstop: T6–D59, U.S. 

Nuclear Regulatory Commission,

include ‘‘Uranium Recovery GEIS’’ in 

the subject line when submitting written 

comments.
