    Any interested party may submit comments on the draft supplement to 
the GEIS for consideration by the NRC staff. To be certain of 
consideration, comments on the draft supplement to the GEIS and the

supplement to the GEIS should be sent to: Chief, Rules and Directives 
Branch, Division of Administrative Services, Office of Administration, 
Mail Stop T-6D 59, U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission, Washington, DC 
20555-0001.
    Comments may be hand-delivered to the NRC at 11545 Rockville Pike, 
Rockville, Maryland, between 7:45 a.m. and 4:15 p.m. on Federal 
workdays. Electronic comments may be submitted to the NRC by the

Commission, including those made by Federal, State, and local agencies, 
Indian tribes, or other interested persons, will be made available 
electronically at the Commission's Public Document Room in Rockville, 
Maryland and from the Publicly Available Records (PARS) component of 
NRC's document system (ADAMS).
    The NRC staff will hold a public meeting to present an overview of 
the draft plant-specific supplement to the GEIS and to accept public 
comments on the document. The public meeting will be held at the Public 
Room in the Louisa County Office Building, 1 Woolfolk Avenue, Louisa, 
Virginia, on June 25, 2002. There will be two sessions to accommodate 
interested parties. The first session will commence at 1:30 p.m. and 
will continue until 4:30 p.m. The second session will commence at 7:00 
p.m. and will continue until 10:00 p.m. Both meetings will be 
transcribed and will include (1) a presentation of the contents of the 
draft plant-specific supplement to the GEIS, and (2) the opportunity 
for interested government agencies, organizations, and individuals to 
provide comments on the draft report. Additionally, the NRC staff will 
host informal discussions one hour prior to the start of each session 
at the Louisa County Office Building. No comments on the proposed scope 
of the supplement to the GEIS will be accepted during the informal 
discussions. To be considered, comments must be provided either at the 
transcribed public meetings, or in writing as discussed above. Persons 
may pre-register to attend or present oral comments at the meeting by 
contacting Mr. Andrew J. Kugler by telephone at 1-800-368-5642,

Individual oral comments may be limited by the time available, 
depending on the number of persons who register. If special equipment 
or accommodations are needed to attend or present information at the 
public meeting, the need should be brought to Mr. Kugler's attention no 
later than June 18, 2002, to provide the NRC staff adequate notice to 
determine whether the request can be accommodated.
