NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION


Licensing Support Network Advisory Review Panel

AGENCY: Nuclear Regulatory Commission.

ACTION: Notice of renewal of the Charter of the Licensing Support 
Network Advisory Review Panel.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

    The Licensing Support System Advisory Review Panel was established 
by the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) as a Federal Advisory 
Committee in 1989. Its purpose was to provide advice on the fundamental 
issues of design and development of an electronic information 
management system to be used to store and retrieve documents relating 
to the licensing of a geologic repository for the disposal of high-
level radioactive waste, and on the operation and maintenance of the 
system. This electronic information management system was known as the 
Licensing

Support System (LSS). In November, 1998 the Commission approved 
amendments to title 10 Code of Federal Regulations Part 2 that renamed 
the Licensing Support System Advisory Review Panel as the Licensing 
Support Network Advisory Review Panel (LSNARP). The Licensing Support 
Network (LSN) was shut down in 2011 and the document collection was 
submitted to the Office of the Secretary. The document collection was 
made publically available in the NRC's Agencywide Documents Access and 
Management System in August 2016 and contains over 3.69 million 
documents associated the proposed high-level waste facility at Yucca 
Mountain.
    Membership on the Panel will continue to be drawn from those whose 
interests could be affected by the use of the LSN document collection, 
including the Department of Energy, the NRC, the State of Nevada, the 
National Congress of American Indians, affected units of local 
governments in Nevada, the Nevada Nuclear Waste Task Force, and nuclear 
industry groups. Federal agencies with expertise and experience in 
electronic information management systems may also participate on the 
Panel.
    The NRC has determined that renewal of the charter for the LSNARP 
until January 3, 2021, is in the public interest in connection with 
duties imposed on the Commission by law. This action is being taken in 
accordance with the Federal Advisory Committee Act after consultation 
with the Committee Management Secretariat, General Services 
Administration.
