Background
On May 14, 2018 (83 FR 22297), the NRC solicited comments on DG-
5048, ``Standard Format and Content of Physical Security Plans, Training and Qualifications Plans, and Safeguards Contingency Plans for Nuclear Power Plants'' (ADAMS Accession No. ML17124A490). The public comment period was originally scheduled to end on July 13, 2018. On May 14, 2018, the Nuclear Energy Institute (NEI) requested that the comment period be extended, stating that ``the change would allow NEI and its members' sufficient time to perform a thorough review of the document consistent with other work priorities'' (ADAMS Accesion No. ML18136A546). The NRC agreed to the request because of the length and comprehensiveness of this DG. Accordingly, the NRC is extending the public comment period on this document until August 13, 2018, to allow more time for members of the public to submit their comments.
Dated at Rockville, Maryland, this 23rd day of May, 2018.
For the Nuclear Regulatory Commission.

Chief, Regulatory Guidance and Generic Issues Branch, Division of Engineering, Office of Nuclear Regulatory Research.
