II. Discussion
On December 6, 2024, the NRC solicited public comments on draft
Supplement 15, Second Renewal, to the GEIS for License Renewal of
Nuclear Plants, NUREG-1437, regarding the subsequent renewal of Renewed
Facility Operating License No. NPF-12 for an additional 20 years for
V.C. Summer. Draft Supplement 15, Second Renewal, to the GEIS includes
the NRC staff's evaluation of the environmental impacts of the proposed
action and alternatives to the proposed action.
Pursuant to section 51.73 of title 10 of the Code of Federal
Regulations, the NRC established a comment period of 45 days from the
date of its Federal Register notice issued on December 6, 2024 (89 FR
97077). The public comment period closed on January 21, 2025. However,
the in-person public meeting originally scheduled for January 9, 2025,
was postponed due to the day's designation as a National Day of
Mourning throughout the United States. The in-person public meeting has
been rescheduled to January 28, 2025. In order to accommodate the
rescheduled meeting and to allow more time for members of the public to
submit their comments, the NRC has decided to reopen the public comment
period to February 11, 2025. Comments received after this date will be
considered, if it is practical to do so, but the NRC is able to ensure
consideration only for comments received on or before that date.
Dated: January 17, 2025.
For the Nuclear Regulatory Commission.

Acting Deputy Director, Division of Rulemaking, Environmental, and
Financial Support, Office of Nuclear Material Safety and Safeguards.
