II. Further Information

    On September 28, 2018 (83 FR 49139), the NRC published a request 
for public comment on draft NUREG-0800, ``Standard Review Plan for the 
Review of Safety Analysis Reports for Nuclear Power Plants: LWR 
Edition,'' SRP2.5.3, ``Surface Deformation'' (ADAMS Accession No. 
ML18186A623). This section has been developed to assist NRC staff in 
reviewing applications submitted per the requirements under parts 50 
and 52 of title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR).
    The public comment period for SRP 2.5.3 was originally closed on 
October 29, 2018. The NRC held a public meeting on October 22, 2018 
during which technical issues precluded public participation via 
webinar. Accordingly, the NRC has decided to reopen the public comment 
period on this document to allow more time for members of the public to 
read the meeting transcript and assemble and submit their comments. The 
public meeting was transcribed, and the transcription is available on 
ADAMS at ML18303A102. In addition, the slides presented during the 
meeting are available on ADAMS at ML18292A592.
