DRAFT REPORT FOR COMMENT - GENERIC ENVIORNMENTAL IMPACT STATEMENT FOR LICENSE RENEWAL OF NUCLEAR PLANTS - SUPPLEMENT 16

Dear Mr. Pao-Tsin Kuo,

We have received the submitted Supplemental Enviornmental Impact Statement (SEIS) to the Generic Environmental Impact Statement for License Renewal of Nuclear Plants (GEIS, NUREG-1437). Based on a review of this document, we concur with your determination of No Historic Properties Affected for this proposed undertaking under the Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act of 1966 and that the impact of license renewal on historical and archaeological resources is small and no mitigation is warranted under the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969.

We have made these comments and recommendations according to our responsibility defined by Federal law pertaining to the Section 106 process. If design changes are made for this project which would involve undisturbed new rights-of-way or easements, please forward additional information to our office for further comment along with your determination of effect. If project activities uncover an item(s) that might be of archeological, historical or architectural interest, or if important new archeological, historical or architectural data should be encountered in the project APE, the contractor should make reasonable efforts to avoid further impacts to the property until an assessment can be made by an inidividual meeting the appropriate Secretary of the Interior standards for the identified resource.

Should you have any questions please contact me at the number below.

Sincerely, i 6?
