The NRC is announcing that it will hold a public scoping meeting as
an online webinar, for the North Anna subsequent license renewal
supplement to the NRC's NUREG-1437, ``Generic Environmental Impact
Statement for License Renewal of Nuclear Plants'' (GEIS). The webinar
will offer a telephone line for members of the public to provide
comments. A court reporter will record and transcribe all comments
received during the webinar. To be considered, comments must be
provided either at the transcribed public meeting or in writing, as
discussed in the ADDRESSES section of this document. The date and time
