II. Discussion
The NRC is issuing for public comment draft Supplement 61 to the
GEIS for License Renewal of Nuclear Plants, NUREG-1437, regarding the
proposed renewal of Renewed Facility Operating License No. NPF-58, for
an additional 20 years of operation for Perry Plant. Draft site-
specific Supplement 61 to the GEIS includes the preliminary analysis
that evaluates the environmental impacts of the proposed action and
alternatives to the proposed action. The NRC staff's preliminary
recommendation is that the adverse environmental impacts of license
renewal for Perry Plant are not so great that preserving the option of
license renewal for energy-planning decisionmakers would be
unreasonable.
