SUMMARY: On July 11, 2023, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) 
solicited comments on three draft documents that provide revised 
guidance for subsequent license renewal (SLR) and the associated 
technical bases for the revised guidance documents. The draft 
regulatory guidance documents consist of draft NUREG-2191, ``Generic 
Aging Lessons Learned for Subsequent License Renewal Report,'' Volumes 
1 and 2, Revision 1 (GALL-SLR Report); draft NUREG-2192, ``Standard 
Review Plan for Review of Subsequent License Renewal Applications for 
Nuclear Power Plants,'' Revision 1 (SRP-SLR); and draft NUREG-2221, 
``Technical Bases for Changes in the Subsequent License Renewal 
Guidance Documents, NUREG-2191, Revision 1, and NUREG-2192, Revision 
1,'' Supplement 1. The public comment period was originally scheduled 
to close on September 11, 2023. The NRC has decided to extend the 
public comment period to allow more time for members of the public to 
prepare and submit their comments.

DATES: The September 11, 2023, due date for comments on the draft 
regulatory guidance documents, published on July 11, 2023 (88 FR 
44160), is extended. Comments should be filed no later than October 11, 
2023. Comments received after this date will be considered, if it is 
practical to do so, but the Commission is able to ensure consideration 
only for comments received on or before this date.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On July 11, 2023, the NRC published a notice 
in the Federal Register (88 FR 44160) affording members of the public 
an opportunity to submit comments on three draft documents that provide 
revised regulatory guidance for subsequent license renewal and the 
associated technical bases for the revised guidance documents. The 
public comment period was originally scheduled to close on September 
11, 2023. By letter dated August 25, 2023, (ADAMS Accession No. 
ML23242A214), the Nuclear Energy Institute requested a 30-day extension 
of the comment period. For good cause shown, the NRC has decided to 
extend the public comment period by 30 days to allow more time for 
members of the public to prepare and submit their comments on the draft 
guidance documents. Comments should be filed no later than October 11, 
2023.
