      Submit comments by June 6, 2013. Comments received after this date will be considered if it is practical to do so, but the NRC is able to assure consideration only for comments received on or before this date. Because the NRC has determined that the petition should be expedited due to the aforementioned pending arbitration cases, requests for extension of the comment period will not be granted.
