SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Introduction
As stated previously, in response to
several requests during the public
comment period, the NRC is extending
the Draft SEIS comment period close
date from February 1, 2010, to March 3,
2010. The comment period extension is
in response to public comments
indicating (1) the original comment
period for the Draft SEIS included
multiple Federal holidays, and (2) the
Draft SEIS for the Lost Creek ISR Project
was published concurrently with two
additional NRC Draft SEISs (the Nichols
Ranch ISR Project in Campbell and
Johnson Counties, Wyoming, and the
Moore Ranch ISR Project in Campbell
County, Wyoming).
Following the end of the public
comment period, the NRC staff will
publish a Final SEIS for the Lost Creek
ISR Project that addresses, as
appropriate, the public comments on
the Draft SEIS.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
The IAEA periodically revised its
Basic Safety Standards to reflect new
information and accumulated
experience. The current version was
published in 1996 (https://wwwpub.iaea.org/MTCD/publications/PDF/
ss-115-web/Pub996_web-1a.pdf). The
revision now underway is based on the
recommendations of the International
Commission on Radiological Protection
PO 00000
Frm 00131
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
(ICRP) contained in ICRP Publication
103, published in late 2007.
On January 28, 2010, the IAEA posted
a draft revision of the BSS for comment
by each of the member states of the
IAEA. The draft (DS379) is available for
viewing and downloading on the
Internet at: https://www-ns.iaea.org/
standards/documents/draft-msposted.asp. Several other International
Organizations, including the World
Health Organization and the
International Labor Organization, are
also providing the draft to their Member
States for comment. The United States
is a Member State of each of these
International Organizations, and the
U.S. Government will be developing
coordinated comments on the draft
revision.
The BSS provides requirements for
the wide range of radiation protection
situations which may exist. The draft
report organizes these requirements into
three principle exposure situations,
namely: Planned exposure situations, in
which an activity that may cause
radiation exposure can be planned in
advance, and appropriate controls put
into place; emergency exposure
situations, that arises as a result of an
accident, a malicious act, or any other
unexpected event, and requires prompt
action in order to avoid or reduce
adverse consequences; and existing
exposure situations, in which the
circumstances causing exposure already
exist when a decision on the need for
control has to be taken (such as radon
in homes). The requirements in the
existing BSS, and those contained in the
draft cover areas which may be under
the jurisdiction of the NRC, or may be
part of programs under other Federal
Agencies, including the Environmental
Protection Agency, the Department of
Health and Human Services, the
Department of Labor, and the
Department of Energy, or may be under
the jurisdiction of various State
Agencies.
Many Member States of the IAEA will
utilize the BSS as one basis for the
regulations for radiation safety in their
countries. Adherence to the provisions
of the BSS is mandated for IAEA’s own
conduct, and any uses of radiation or
radioactive material where the IAEA is
providing technical assistance and
support to the Member State. Users of
radiation and radioactive materials from
the United States who may do business
in these countries may therefore be
particularly interested in this draft
version. The United States does not
directly adopt IAEA standards, but may
consider such standards as a useful
point of reference in the development of
proposals under the Administrative
