II. Discussion

A. Comment Period Extension

    On August 21, 2015 (80 FR 50875), the NRC requested public comments 
on NUREG-2184, the NRC staff's draft ``Supplement to the U.S. 
Department of Energy's Environmental Impact Statement for a Geologic 
Repository for the Disposal of Spent Nuclear Fuel and High-Level 
Radioactive Waste at Yucca Mountain, Nye County, Nevada'' (ADAMS 
Accession No. ML15223B243). The supplement evaluates the potential 
environmental impacts on groundwater and impacts associated with the 
discharge of any contaminated groundwater to the ground surface due to 
potential releases from a geologic repository for spent nuclear fuel 
and high-level radioactive waste at Yucca Mountain, Nye County, Nevada. 
This supplements the U.S. Department of Energy's 2002 ``Final 
Environmental Impact Statement for a Geologic Repository for the 
Disposal of Spent Nuclear Fuel and High-Level Radioactive Waste at 
Yucca Mountain, Nye County, Nevada'' (ADAMS Accession No. ML032690321), 
and 2008 ``Final Supplemental Environmental Impact Statement for a 
Geologic Repository for the Disposal of Spent Nuclear Fuel and High-
Level Radioactive Waste at Yucca Mountain, Nye County, Nevada'' (ADAMS 
Accession No. ML081750191), in accordance with the findings and scope 
outlined in the NRC staff's 2008 ``Adoption Determination Report for 
the U.S. Department of Energy's Environmental Impact Statements for the 
Proposed Geologic Repository at Yucca Mountain'' (ADAMS Accession No. 
ML082420342). The public comment period was originally scheduled to 
close on October 20, 2015. The NRC received requests to extend the 
public comment period (e.g., ADAMS Accession Nos. ML15253A864 and 
ML15253A874) and the NRC staff has decided to extend the public comment 
period on the draft supplement until November 20, 2015, to allow more 
time for members of the public to develop and submit their comments.

B. Corrections

    In the Federal Register on August 21, 2015, in FR Doc. 2015-20638,
