October 11, 2007 Joan Leary Matthews Senior Attorney for Special Projects New York State Department of Environmental Conservation Office of General Counsel, 14th Floor 625 Broadway Albany, NY 12233-1500
Dear Ms. Matthews:
I am responding to your letter of October 5, 2007, in which you requested an extension until October 31, 2007, to file written scoping comments for the environmental impact statement that the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) will be preparing as part of its review of the Indian Point Nuclear Generating, Unit Nos. 2 and 3, license renewal application.
The NRC staff has considered your request, but has determined that an extension of the comment period is not warranted. As you know, a Notice was published in the Federal Register on August 10, 2007, inviting members of the public to attend the environmental scoping meeting scheduled for September 19, 2007, and providing an opportunity for interested persons to submit written scoping comments during a two-month period following publication of the Notice (72 FR 45075). As stated in the Federal Register, written scoping comments should be submitted no later than October 12, 2007, to be considered in the scoping process. Numerous comments have been submitted to the NRC, during the scoping meeting and in writing, and we anticipate further written comments before the end of the comment period. Nonetheless, the NRC will consider comments received after such date, to the extent that it is practicable to do so.
We encourage you to submit your written scoping comments at your earliest opportunity.
Thank you for your interest and participation in the license renewal process.
Sincerely,
/RA by Jill Caverly for/
