SUMMARY: On December 17, 1997 (62 FR 66038), the Nuclear Regulatory
Commission published a notice of receipt of an amended petition for
rulemaking filed by Peter G. Crane and requested public comment on the
amended petition. In the amended petition for rulemaking, the
petitioner seeks to amend NRC's emergency planning regulations to
require consideration of sheltering, evacuation, and the prophylactic
use of potassium iodide for the general public in developing a range of
emergency planning protective actions. In addition, the petitioner has
filed supplemental information in support of his amended petition which
is available in the NRC Public Document Room. The comment period on the
amended petition was to have expired on January 16, 1998. In response
to several requests, the NRC has decided to extend the comment period
for this action.
DATES: The comment period has been extended and now expires on February
17, 1998. Comments received after this date will be considered if it is
practical to do so, but assurance of consideration cannot be given
except to those comments received on or before this date.

Commission, Washington, D.C. 20555-0001, Attention: Rulemakings and
