SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The LSN is an internet based electronic 
discovery database being developed to aid the NRC in complying with the 
schedule for decision on the construction authorization for the high-
level waste repository contained in Section 114(d) of the Nuclear Waste 
Policy Act of 1982, as amended. In 1998, the NRC Rules of Practice in 
10 CFR Part 2, Subpart J, were modified to provide for the creation and 
operation of the LSN, an internet-based technological solution to the 
submission and management of records and documents relating to the 
licensing of a geologic repository for the disposal of high-level 
radioactive waste. (63 FR 71729.) Pursuant to 10 CFR 2.1011(d), the 
agency has chartered the LSNARP, an advisory committee that provides 
advice to the NRC on fundamental issues relating to LSN design, 
operation, maintenance, and compliance monitoring.
