SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On November 7, 2014, NWMI filed with the 
NRC, pursuant to Section 103 of the Atomic Energy Act of 1954, as 
amended, and part 50 of Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 
CFR), a portion of an application for a construction permit for a 
medical radioisotope production facility in Columbia, Missouri. By 
letter dated February 5, 2015 (ADAMS Accession No. ML15086A262), NWMI 
withdrew and resubmitted this portion of their construction permit 
application (ADAMS Accession No. ML15086A261) to include a discussion 
of connected actions in their environmental report in response to a 
letter from the NRC (ADAMS Accession No. ML14349A501).
    An exemption from certain requirements of 10 CFR 2.101(a)(5) 
granted by the Commission on October 7, 2013 (ADAMS Accession No. 
ML13238A333), in response to a letter from NWMI dated August 9, 2013 
(ADAMS Accession No. ML13227A295), allowed for NWMI to submit its 
construction permit application in two parts. Specifically, the 
exemption allowed NWMI to submit a portion of its application for a 
construction permit up to 6 months prior to the remainder of the 
application regardless of whether or not an environmental impact 
statement or a supplement to an environmental impact statement is 
prepared during the review of its application. On February 5, 2015, in 
accordance with 10 CFR 2.101(a)(5), NWMI submitted the following in 
part one of the construction permit application:
     The description and safety assessment of the site required 
by 10 CFR 50.34(a)(1),
     the environmental report required by 10 CFR 50.30(f),
     the filing fee information required by 10 CFR 50.30(e) and 
10 CFR 170.21,
     the general information required by 10 CFR 50.33, and
     the agreement limiting access to classified information 
required by 10 CFR 50.37.
    As stated in NWMI's February 5, 2015, letter, part two of NWMI's 
application for a construction permit will contain the remainder of the 
preliminary safety analysis report required by 10 CFR 50.34(a) and will 
be submitted in accordance with the requirements of 10 CFR 2.101(a)(5).
    Subsequent Federal Register notices will address the acceptability 
of this part of the tendered construction permit application for 
docketing and provisions for public participation in the construction 
permit application review process.

    Dated at Rockville, Maryland, this 13th day of April, 2015.
