SN74LV595A-Q1: EPAD connection

Part Number: SN74LV595A-Q1

Tool/software:

I would like to use the WBQB Packaged version of this IC, however there doesn't seem to be a foot note or mention of how the thermal pad should be connected that I could find in the datasheet (Looking at Rev G.)

If I want to avoid an application with a floating metal pad am I okay to just ground this pad?

Thanks.
