II. Background

    The NRC is requesting public comments on the draft RIS. The NRC 
issues RISs to communicate with stakeholders on a broad range of 
regulatory matters. This may include communicating and restating staff 
technical positions on regulatory matters. The NRC staff has developed 
draft RIS 2015-XX to clarify its position on compliance with section 
50.47(b)(10) of Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations. 
Specifically, power reactor licensees need to have PARs for the members 
of the public on bodies of water within the plume exposure pathway EPZ 
during a general emergency. The draft RIS is available in ADAMS under 
Accession No. ML15022A610.

    Dated at Rockville, Maryland, this 19th day of May 2015.
