NRC Yucca Mountain Directorate: Meeting materials, extension of public comment period, and additional public teleconference

The following message was emailed out from the NRC Yucca Mountain Directorate on Sept. 12th:

"Greetings,

Thank you to all who participated in the public meeting in Rockville, Maryland on September 3.  We have made the materials from that meeting available on our website at http://www.nrc.gov/waste/hlw-disposal/key-documents.html#er.  On that page, under the heading “Comment Meetings,” you can find the NRC staff’s presentation slides, the transcript, a summary of the meeting, and other materials. 

As we announced in our September 3 meeting, we are granting a month’s extension of the comment period on the NRC staff’s draft supplement.  The comment period now closes on November 20, 2015. 

We have also added another teleconference to receive comments on the supplement.  This call will take place on November 12, 2015, from 2:00 p.m. until 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time.  The number for this teleconference is 888-790-2936, and the passcode is 1715992.  Please note that the same number and passcode should be used for the October 15 teleconference.  Information about the teleconferences and our public meetings next week in Nevada is available both on our web page for this project (http://www.nrc.gov/waste/hlw-disposal/key-documents.html#er) and on the NRC’s public meetings web page, at http://meetings.nrc.gov/pmns/mtg.

Please respond to this email if you would like to pre-register or to speak at the upcoming meetings or teleconferences.

If you have any questions about the information in this email, please contact Christine Pineda at (301) 415-6789 or email us at YMEIS_supplement@nrc.gov. 

Thank you,

The staff of the Nuclear Regulatory Commission
