II. Discussion

    On August 2, 2023, the NRC solicited comments on Draft NUREG 0800, 
``Standard Review Plan for the Review of Safety Analysis Reports for 
Nuclear Power Plants: LWR Edition,'' Section 15.0, Revision 4, 
``Introduction--Transient and Accident Analyses.'' The NRC sought 
comments on the proposed draft section revision of the Standard Review 
Plan (SRP), concerning the evaluation of the safety of a nuclear power 
plant that requires analyses of the plant's responses to postulated 
equipment failures or malfunctions. The public comment period closed on 
October 2, 2023 (88 FR 50918). The NRC has decided to reopen the public 
comment period for this document for 30 days to allow more time for 
members of the public to develop and submit comments. Comments must be 
submitted no later than November 3, 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.
