II. Discussion

    On April 11, 2017, the NRC solicited comments on its patient 
release program. The purpose of requesting information from the general 
public on its patient release program was to receive input from the 
public on whether additional or alternate criteria are needed and 
whether to clarify NRC's current patient release criteria. The 
information collected will be used to determine whether significant 
regulatory changes to NRC's patient release program are warranted. The 
public comment period was originally scheduled to close on June 12, 
2017. The NRC has decided to extend the public comment period on this 
document until June 27, 2017, to allow more time for members of the 
public to submit their comments.

    Dated at Rockville, Maryland, this 24th day of May 2017.
