  • For plant owners/operators, are you interested in license renewal for 40 years, and how likely would you utilize it as compared to separate 20-year license renewals?
  • What should the NRC take into account when considering whether to change the limit of license renewal to 40 years from the current 20?

o If a decision is made to pursue license renewal for 40 years, what collateral changes should NRC make to the license renewal program to ensure that all plants will continue to provide reasonable assurance of adequate protection of the public health and safety during the period of extended operation?
