public comments on draft ISG FSME-ISG-02, ``Guidance for Conducting the
Section 106 Process of the National Historic Preservation Act for

to assist NRC staff in conducting the Section 106 process of the
National Historic Preservation Act of 1966, as amended (NHPA), specific

requirements. This draft ISG also provides useful information to
participants in the Section 106 process for uranium recovery licensing
actions. The public comment period was originally scheduled to close on
September 2, 2014. The NRC has decided to extend the public comment
period on this document until November 17, 2014, to allow more time for
members of the public to submit their comments.
Dated at Rockville, Maryland, this 26th day of August 2014.
