II. Background The NRC staff has developed draft RIS 2016-xx, ``License Amendment Requests for Changes to Emergency Response Organization Staffing and Augmentation,'' based on a number of recent LAR submittals that did not supply proper justification for proposed ERO changes. The NRC will clarify how licensees should use the Nuclear Energy Institute (NEI) document, NEI 10-05, ``Assessment of On-Shift Emergency Response Organization Staffing and Capabilities,'' dated June 23, 2011, in these LARs. In addition to the clarification this RIS provides, the RIS will assist licensees by providing examples of the scope and detail of information that should be provided in the LARs to facilitate the NRC review. Proposed Action The NRC is requesting public comments on the draft RIS. The NRC staff will make a final determination regarding issuance of the RIS after it considers any public comments received in response to this request. Dated at Rockville, Maryland, this 10th day of March 2016. For the Nuclear Regulatory Commission. Tanya M.
