Request for Public Comment Clause Samples

Request for Public Comment. The NRC is requesting public comment on the draft MOA. The NRC does not plan to provide individual responses to comments. However, the NRC will consider any comments received when finalizing the MOA and will publish the final MOA in the Federal Register. The draft MOA is available in ▇▇▇▇▇ under Accession No. ML15239B244.

Request for Public Comment. Your review and comment is requested on proposed Tri-Party Agreement milestone date established by the schedule for the 324 Building Radiochemical Engineering Cells, High-Level Vault, Low-Level Vault, and Associated Areas Closure Plan. A top priority at Hanford is the removal of excess equipment, radioactive waste, and mixed waste from the 324 Building Radiochemical Engineering Cells and nearby tank vaults. A commitment to complete this action was included in the Tri-Party Agreement between the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), the Washington State Department of Ecology (Ecology), and the United States Department of Energy (DOE). This commitment was represented as Tri-Party Agreement Milestone M-89-00. The milestone completion date was left “to be determined (TBD)”. On September 1, 1998, Ecology approved a Closure Plan submitted by DOE that established a date of October 31, 2005 for completion of these activities. DOE, Ecology and EPA are proposing to set the completion date for Milestone M-89-00 at October 31, 2005 as well. The DOE, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), and the Washington State Department of Ecology (Ecology) are seeking public comment on the proposed milestone completion date. The 43-day public comment period is scheduled for April 26 to June 10, 1999. All public comments will be considered and responded to before final decisions are made. Because this proposed change to the Tri-Party Agreement isconsistent with theexisting project schedule and expected funding, public meetingsare not currently scheduled. You may request a public meeting if you believe that public discussion is warranted and will improve this activity. If you would like to review the proposed modification, or the current Closure Plan (DOE/RL-96-73, Revision 1) that supports the proposed completion date, please visit the public information repository nearest you, or review the proposed change at the Tri-Party Agreement homepage: ▇▇▇▇://▇▇▇.▇▇▇▇▇▇▇.▇▇▇/tpa/tpahome.htm
