THE NRC HAS EXTENDED THE COMMENT PERIOD for a proposed rule on groundwater protection at uranium in situ recovery (ISR) facilities until May 3 after several organizations-the Natural Resources Defense Council, the New Mexico Environmental Law Center, Energy & Conservation Law, the Powder River Basin Resource Center, and the Western Mining Action Project-on February 20 submitted a combined request for a 60-day extension. The Nuclear Regulatory Commission issued the request for comment in the January 31 Federal Register (NN, Mar. 2019, p. 81). The public comment period was originally scheduled to close on March 4.
