Notice of Availability of the Draft Supplement 45 to the Generic
Environmental Impact Statement for License Renewal of Nuclear Plants,
and Public Meetings for the License Renewal of Hope Creek Generating
Station and Salem Nuclear Generating Station, Units 1 and 2
Notice is hereby given that the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission
(NRC or Commission) has published a draft plant-specific supplement to
the Generic Environmental Impact Statement for License Renewal of
Nuclear Plants (GEIS), NUREG-1437, regarding the renewal of operating
licenses DPR-70, DPR-75, and NPF-57, for an additional 20 years of
operation for Salem Nuclear Generating Station (Salem), Units 1 and 2,
and Hope Creek Generating Station (HCGS). Possible alternatives to the
proposed action (license renewal) include no action and reasonable
alternative energy sources.
Any interested party may submit comments on the draft supplement to
the GEIS for consideration by the NRC staff. To be considered, comments
on the draft supplement to the GEIS and the proposed action must be
received by December 17, 2010; the NRC staff is able to ensure
consideration only for comments received on or before this date.
ADDRESSES: You may submit comments by any one of the following methods.
Please include Docket ID NRC-2009-0390 or NRC-2009-0391 in the subject
line of your comments. Comments submitted in writing or in electronic

remove any identifying or contact information, the NRC cautions you
against including any information in your submission that you do not
want to be publicly disclosed.
The NRC requests that any party soliciting or aggregating comments
received from other persons for submission to the NRC inform those

publicly disclosed.
