ACTION: Draft supplemental environmental impact statement; issuance, public meeting, and request for comment. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- SUMMARY: The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) is issuing for public comment a draft plant-specific supplement, Supplement 56, to NUREG-1437, ``Generic Environmental Impact Statement for License Renewal of Nuclear Plants'' (GEIS), regarding the renewal of DTE Electric Company (DTE) operating license NPF-43 for Fermi 2 for an additional 20 years of operation. Possible alternatives to the proposed action (license renewal) include no action and reasonable alternative energy sources. The NRC staff plans to hold one public meeting during the public comment period to present an overview of the draft plant- specific supplements to the GEIS and to accept public comments on the document. DATES: Submit comments by December 28, 2015. Comments received after this date will be considered, if it is practical to do so, but the NRC staff is able to ensure consideration only for comments received on or before this date. ADDRESSES: You may submit comments by any of the following methods (unless this document describes a different method for submitting comments on a specific subject):Federal Rulemaking Web site: Go to http://www.regulations.gov and search for Docket ID NRC-2014-0109.

You may obtain publicly-available information related to this action by any of the following methods: Federal Rulemaking Web site: Go to http://www.regulations.gov and search for Docket ID NRC-2014-0109. NRC's Agencywide Documents Access and Management System (ADAMS): You may obtain publicly-available documents online in the ADAMS Public Documents collection at http://www.nrc.gov/reading-rm/adams.html. To begin the search, select ``ADAMS Public Documents'' and then select ``Begin Web-based ADAMS Search.'' For problems with ADAMS, please contact the NRC's Public Document Room (PDR) reference staff at 1-800-397-4209, 301-415-4737, or by email to [email protected].

The NRC cautions you not to include identifying or contact information that you do not want to be publicly disclosed in your comment submission. The NRC posts all comment submissions at http://www.regulations.gov as well as entering the comment submissions into ADAMS. The NRC does not routinely edit comments submissions to remove identifying or contact information. If you are requesting or aggregating comments from other persons for submission to the NRC, then you should inform those persons not to include identifying or contact information that they do not want to be publicly disclosed in their comment submission. Your request should state that the NRC does not routinely edit comment submissions to remove such information before making the comment submissions available to the public or entering the comment submissions into ADAMS. II. Discussion The NRC is issuing for public comment the draft plant-specific Supplement 56 to the GEIS for license renewal of nuclear plants, NUREG- 1437, regarding the renewal of operating license, NPF-43 for an additional 20 years of operation for Fermi 2. Supplement 56 to the GEIS includes the preliminary analysis that evaluates the environmental impacts of the proposed action and alternatives to the proposed action. The NRC's preliminary recommendation is that the adverse environmental impacts of license renewal for Fermi 2 are not great enough to deny the option of license renewal for energy-planning decisionmakers. III. Public Meetings The NRC staff will hold a public meeting prior to the close of the public comment period to present an overview of the draft plant- specific supplement to the GEIS and to accept public comment on the document. The meeting will be held at the Monroe County Community College, La-Z-Boy-Center 1555 S. Raisinville Road, Monroe, Michigan on Wednesday, December 2, 2015. There will be a registration period from 6:30 p.m. until 7:00 p.m. The meeting will start at 7:00 p.m. and continue until 9:00 p.m., as necessary. The meeting will be transcribed and will include: (1) A presentation of the contents of the draft plant-specific supplement to the GEIS; and (2) the opportunity for interested government agencies, organizations, and individuals to provide comments on the draft report. To be considered in the final supplement to the GEIS, comments must be provided either at the transcribed public meeting or submitted in writing by the comment deadline identified in the DATES section of this notice. Persons may pre-register to attend or present oral comments at the meeting by contacting Ms. Elaine Keegan, the NRC project manager, at 1-800-368- 5642, extension 8517, or by email at [email protected] no later than Tuesday, November 24, 2015. Members of the public may also register to provide oral comments during the registration period prior to the meeting.
