The NRC requested public comment 

on the OAS PRM on August 23, 2017. 

The purpose of the request was to obtain 

public input and responses to a set of 

four questions about the OAS petition 

and how the NRC should proceed. The 

public comment period was originally 

scheduled to close on November 6, 

2017. The NRC has decided to extend 

the public comment period on this 

document until December 6, 2017, to 

allow more time for members of the 

public to submit their comments. 

Dated at Rockville, Maryland, this 1st day 

of November, 2017. 

For the Nuclear Regulatory Commission. 

Annette L. Vietti-Cook, 

Secretary of the Commission.
