Nuclear Regulatory Comission ACTION:
Proposed rule:
Extension of coment period
SUMMARY
- On June 8, 1988 (53 FR 21550), the NRC published for public comment a proposed rule to make its transportation regulations in 10 CFR Part 71 compatible with those of the International Atomic Energy Agency contained in 3: e daty Series No. 6. Regulations for the Safe Transport of Radioactive Material, 1985 Edition. This rulemaking action, combined with a parallel.
action by the Department of Transportation (DOT), would make United States regulations for the safe transportation of radioactive material internationally compatible..Because it is important that the public have the opportunity to review and coment on the DOT and NRC proposed rules concurrently, NRC set its public comment period to expire on October 6, 1988, expecting the DOT rule to be available for publication by the end of June, 1988.
Availability of the 00T proposed rule has now been delayed to early October,1988. To achieve its goal of having some portion of the p6blic coment period comon for both rules, the NRC has decided to extend the coment per!od for an additional two months, to December 6, 1988.
