ACTION: Direct final rule. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- SUMMARY: The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) is amending its spent fuel storage regulations by revising the Holtec International (Holtec), HI-STORM (Holtec International Storage Module) Flood/Wind (FW) Multipurpose Canister Storage (MPC) System listing within the ``List of approved spent fuel storage casks'' to add Amendment No. 0, Revision 1, to Certificate of Compliance (CoC) No. 1032. This revision corrects the CoC's expiration date (editorial change), clarifies heat load limits for helium backfill ranges, clarifies the wording for the Limiting Condition for Operation (LCO) on vent blockage, and revises the vacuum drying system heat load. DATES: The direct final rule is effective April 25, 2016, unless significant adverse comments are received by October 28, 2015. If the direct final rule is withdrawn as a result of such comments, timely notice of the withdrawal will be published in the Federal Register. Comments received after this date will be considered if it is practical to do so, but the Commission is able to ensure consideration only for comments received on or before this date. Comments received on this direct final rule will also be considered to be comments on a companion proposed rule published in the Proposed Rules section of this issue of the Federal Register.

II. Procedural Background This rule is limited to the changes contained in Amendment No. 0, Revision 1, to CoC No. 1032 and does not include other aspects of the HI-STORM FW MPC Storage System. The NRC is using the ``direct final rule'' procedure to issue this revision because it represents a limited and routine change to an existing CoC that is expected to be noncontroversial. Adequate protection of public health and safety continues to be ensured. The revision to the rule will become effective on April 25, 2016. However, if the NRC receives significant adverse comments on this direct final rule by April 25, 2016, then the NRC will publish a document that withdraws this action, and will subsequently address the comments received in a final rule as a response to the companion proposed rule published in the Proposed Rule section of this issue of the Federal Register. Absent significant modifications to the proposed revisions requiring republication, the NRC will not initiate a second comment period on this action. A significant adverse comment is a comment where the commenter explains why the rule would be inappropriate, including challenges to the rule's underlying premise or approach, or would be ineffective or unacceptable without a change. A comment is adverse and significant if: (1) The comment opposes the rule and provides a reason sufficient to require a substantive response in a notice-and-comment process. For example, a substantive response is required when: (a) The comment causes the NRC staff to reevaluate (or reconsider) its position or conduct additional analysis; The comment raises an issue serious enough to warrant a substantive response to clarify or complete the record; or (b) The comment raises a relevant issue that was not previously addressed or considered by the NRC staff. (2) The comment proposes a change or an addition to the rule, and it is apparent that the rule would be ineffective or unacceptable without incorporation of the change or addition. (3) The comment causes the NRC staff to make a change (other than editorial) to the rule, CoC, or Technical Specifications (TSs). For detailed instructions on submitting comments, please see the ADDRESSES section of this document. III. Background Section 218(a) of the Nuclear Waste Policy Act (NWPA) of 1982, as amended, requires that ``the Secretary [of the Department of Energy] shall establish a demonstration program, in cooperation with the private sector, for the dry storage of spent nuclear fuel at civilian nuclear power reactor sites, with the objective of establishing one or more technologies that the [Nuclear Regulatory] Commission may, by rule, approve for use at the sites of civilian nuclear power reactors without, to the maximum extent practicable, the need for additional site-specific approvals by the Commission.'' Section 133 of the NWPA states, in part, that ``[t]he Commission shall, by rule, establish procedures for the licensing of any technology approved by the Commission under Section 219(a) [sic: 218(a)] for use at the site of any civilian nuclear power reactor.'' To implement this mandate, the Commission approved dry storage of spent nuclear fuel in NRC-approved casks under a general license by publishing a final rule which added a new subpart K in part 72 of Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR) entitled ``General License for Storage of Spent Fuel at Power Reactor Sites'' (55 FR 29181; July 18, 1990). This rule also established a new subpart L within 10 CFR part 72 entitled, ``Approval of Spent Fuel Storage Casks,'' which contains procedures and criteria for obtaining NRC approval of spent fuel storage cask designs. The NRC subsequently issued a direct final rule on March 28, 2011 (76 FR 17019), that approved the Holtec HI-STORM FW MPC Storage System and added it to the list of NRC-approved cask designs in 10 CFR 72.214 as CoC No. 1032. IV. Discussion of Changes By letter dated September 16, 2014, and as supplemented on March 12, 2015, Holtec submitted a request to the NRC to revise the initial certificate issued as CoC No. 1032. Because this is a request to revise the initial certificate, the revision is being referred to as ``Amendment No. 0, Revision 1.'' Amendment No. 0, Revision 1, will supersede the initial version of the CoC and TSs that were effective on June 13, 2011, in their entirety. The HI-STORM FW MPC Storage System is a spent nuclear fuel storage system designed to be in full compliance with the requirements of 10 CFR part 72. Amendment No. 0, Revision 1, makes the following changes: Corrects the expiration date to June 12, 2031. Modifies Appendix A, Table 3-2, to show that the narrower helium backfill range can be used for all canisters instead of only those above a certain limit. Additionally, the footnotes on this table are revised. Revises the note in Appendix A, LCO 3.1.2, to clarify that each of the inlet and outlet vents should be 50 percent unblocked. Revises Appendix A, Table 3-1, to limit the MPC heat load limit for using the vacuum drying system to a lower value, and revises the table notes accordingly. Revises Appendix B, Tables 2.3-3 and 2.3-4, to indicate that the per cell heat load limits correspond to the lower MPC heat load limit. As documented in the safety evaluation report (SER), the NRC staff performed a detailed safety evaluation of the proposed CoC revision request. Correcting the CoC expiration date to reflect a 20-year versus a 40-year certification is an editorial change that is consistent with the original HI-STORM FW MPC Storage System application and SER. The NRC staff also finds that CoC No. 1032, as revised, identifies the necessary TSs to satisfy 10 CFR part 72 and that the applicable criteria of 10 CFR 72.236 have been satisfied. The NRC staff concludes that the proposed TS changes provide reasonable assurance that the HI- STORM FW MPC Storage System will allow safe storage of spent nuclear fuel. This direct final rule revises the Holtec HI-STORM FW MPC Storage System listing in 10 CFR 72.214 by adding Amendment No. 0, Revision 1, to CoC No. 1032. The revision consists of the changes previously described, as set forth in the revised CoC and TSs. The revised TSs are identified in the SER. The revised Holtec HI-STORM FW MPC Storage System, when used under the conditions specified in the CoC, the TSs, and the NRC's regulations, will meet the requirements of 10 CFR part 72; therefore, adequate protection of public health and safety will continue to be ensured. The NRC staff further determined that the issuance of the revision will not be inimical to the common defense and security. When this direct final rule becomes effective, persons who hold a general license under 10 CFR 72.210 may load spent nuclear fuel into the HI- STORM FW MPC Storage System that meets the criteria of Amendment No. 0, Revision [[Page 58197]] 1, to CoC No. 1032 under 10 CFR 72.212. V. Voluntary Consensus Standards The National Technology Transfer and Advancement Act of 1995 (Pub. L. 104-113) requires that Federal agencies use technical standards that are developed or adopted by voluntary consensus standards bodies unless the use of such a standard is inconsistent with applicable law or otherwise impractical. In this direct final rule, the NRC will revise the Holtec HI-STORM FW MPC Storage System design listing in 10 CFR 72.214, ``List of approved spent fuel storage casks.'' This action does not constitute the establishment of a standard that contains generally applicable requirements. VI. Agreement State Compatibility Under the ``Policy Statement on Adequacy and Compatibility of Agreement State Programs'' approved by the Commission on June 30, 1997, and published in the Federal Register on September 3, 1997 (62 FR 46517), this direct final rule is classified as Compatibility Category ``NRC.'' Compatibility is not required for Category ``NRC'' regulations. The NRC program elements in this category are those that relate directly to areas of regulation reserved to the NRC by the Atomic Energy Act of 1954, as amended, or the provisions of 10 CFR. Although an Agreement State may not adopt program elements reserved to the NRC, it may wish to inform its licensees of certain requirements via a mechanism that is consistent with the particular State's administrative procedure laws, but does not confer regulatory authority on the State. VII. Plain Writing The Plain Writing Act of 2010 (Pub. L. 111-274) requires Federal agencies to write documents in a clear, concise, well-organized manner. The NRC has written this document to be consistent with the Plain Writing Act as well as the Presidential Memorandum, ``Plain Language in Government Writing,'' published June 10, 1998 (63 FR 31883). VIII. Environmental Assessment and Finding of No Significant Environmental Impact A. The Action The action is to amend 10 CFR 72.214 to revise the Holtec HI-STORM FW MPC Storage System listing within the ``List of approved spent fuel storage casks'' to include Amendment No. 0, Revision 1, to CoC No. 1032. Under the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969, as amended, and the NRC's regulations in subpart A of 10 CFR part 51, ``Environmental Protection Regulations for Domestic Licensing and Related Regulatory Functions,'' the NRC has determined that this rule, if adopted, would not be a major Federal action significantly affecting the quality of the human environment and, therefore, an environmental impact statement is not required. The NRC has made a finding of no significant impact on the basis of this environmental assessment. B. The Need for the Action This direct final rule revises the CoC for the Holtec HI-STORM FW MPC Storage System design within the list of approved spent fuel storage casks that power reactor licensees can use to store spent fuel at reactor sites under a general license. Specifically, Amendment No. 0, Revision 1, corrects the CoC expiration date, clarifies heat load limits for helium backfill ranges, clarifies the wording for the LCO on vent blockage, and revises the vacuum drying system heat load. C. Environmental Impacts of the Action On July 18, 1990 (55 FR 29181), the NRC issued an amendment to 10 CFR part 72 to provide for the storage of spent fuel under a general license in cask designs approved by the NRC. The potential environmental impact of using NRC-approved storage casks was initially analyzed in the environmental assessment for the 1990 final rule. The environmental assessment for this Amendment No. 0, Revision 1, tiers off of the environmental assessment for the July 18, 1990, final rule. Tiering on past environmental assessments is a standard process under the National Environmental Policy Act. Holtec HI-STORM FW MPC Storage Systems are designed to mitigate the effects of design basis accidents that could occur during storage. Design basis accidents account for human-induced events and the most severe natural phenomena reported for the site and surrounding area. Postulated accidents analyzed for an Independent Spent Fuel Storage Installation, the type of facility at which a holder of a power reactor operating license would store spent fuel in casks in accordance with 10 CFR part 72, include tornado winds and tornado-generated missiles, a design basis earthquake, a design basis flood, an accidental cask drop, lightning effects, fire, explosions, and other incidents. Considering the specific design requirements for each accident condition, the design of the storage system would prevent loss of containment, shielding, and criticality control. If there is no loss of containment, shielding, or criticality control, the environmental impacts would not be significant. There are no significant changes to cask design requirements in the proposed CoC revision. In addition, because there are no significant design or process changes, any resulting occupational exposure or offsite dose rates from the implementation of Amendment No. 0, Revision 1, would remain well within the 10 CFR part 20 limits. Therefore, the proposed CoC revision will not result in any radiological or non-radiological environmental impacts that differ significantly from the environmental impacts evaluated in the environmental assessment supporting the July 18, 1990, final rule. There will be no significant change in the types or significant revisions in the amounts of any effluent released, no significant increase in the individual or cumulative radiation exposure, and no significant increase in the potential for or consequences from radiological accidents. The NRC staff documented its safety findings in the SER for this amendment. D. Alternative to the Action The alternative to this action is to deny approval of Amendment No. 0, Revision 1, and end the direct final rule. Consequently, any 10 CFR part 72 general licensee that seeks to load spent nuclear fuel into Holtec HI-STORM FW MPC Storage Systems in accordance with the changes described in proposed Amendment No. 0, Revision 1, would have to request an exemption from the requirements of 10 CFR 72.212 and 72.214. Under this alternative, interested licensees would have to prepare, and the NRC would have to review, a separate exemption request, thereby increasing the administrative burden upon the NRC and the costs to each licensee. Therefore, the environmental impacts of the alternative to the action would be the same or more than the impacts of the action. E. Alternative Use of Resources Approval of Amendment No. 0, Revision 1, to CoC No. 1032 would result in no irreversible commitments of resources. F. Agencies and Persons Contacted No agencies or persons outside the NRC were contacted in connection with the preparation of this environmental assessment. G. Finding of No Significant Impact The environmental impacts of the action have been reviewed under the requirements in 10 CFR part 51. Based [[Page 58198]] on the foregoing environmental assessment, the NRC concludes that this direct final rule entitled, ``List of Approved Spent Fuel Storage Casks: Holtec International, Inc., HI-STORM Flood/Wind Multipurpose Storage System, Certificate of Compliance No. 1032, Amendment No. 0, Revision 1,'' will not have a significant effect on the human environment. Therefore, the NRC has determined that an environmental impact statement is not necessary for this direct final rule. IX. Paperwork Reduction Act Statement This direct final rule does not contain any information collection requirements and, therefore, is not subject to the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.). Public Protection Notification The NRC may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required to respond to a request for information or an information collection requirement unless the requesting document displays a currently valid Office of Management and Budget control number. X. Regulatory Flexibility Certification Under the Regulatory Flexibility Act of 1980 (5 U.S.C. 605(b)), the NRC certifies that this rule will not, if issued, have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities. This direct final rule affects only nuclear power plant licensees and Holtec. These entities do not fall within the scope of the definition of small entities set forth in the Regulatory Flexibility Act or the size standards established by the NRC (10 CFR 2.810). XI. Regulatory Analysis On July 18, 1990 (55 FR 29181), the NRC issued an amendment to 10 CFR part 72 to provide for the storage of spent nuclear fuel under a general license in cask designs approved by the NRC. Any nuclear power reactor licensee can use NRC-approved cask designs to store spent nuclear fuel if it notifies the NRC in advance, the spent fuel is stored under the conditions specified in the cask's CoC, and the conditions of the general license are met. A list of NRC-approved cask designs is contained in 10 CFR 72.214. On September 16, 2014, and as supplemented on March 12, 2015, Holtec submitted an application to revise the HI-STORM FW MPC Storage System, CoC No. 1032, as described in Section IV, ``Discussion of Changes,'' of this document. The alternative to this action is to withhold approval of Amendment No. 0, Revision 1, and to require any 10 CFR part 72 general licensee seeking to load spent nuclear fuel into the Holtec HI-STORM FW MPC Storage System under the changes described in Amendment No. 0, Revision 1, to request an exemption from the requirements of 10 CFR 72.212 and 72.214. Under this alternative, each interested 10 CFR part 72 licensee would have to prepare, and the NRC would have to review, a separate exemption request, thereby increasing the administrative burden upon the NRC and the costs to each licensee. Approval of this direct final rule is consistent with previous NRC actions. Further, as documented in the SER and the environmental assessment, the direct final rule will have no adverse effect on public health and safety or the environment. This direct final rule has no significant identifiable impact or benefit on other Government agencies. Based on this regulatory analysis, the NRC concludes that the requirements of the direct final rule are commensurate with the NRC's responsibilities for public health and safety and the common defense and security. No other available alternative is believed to be as satisfactory, and therefore, this action is recommended. XII. Backfitting and Issue Finality The NRC has determined that the backfit rule (10 CFR 72.62) does not apply to this direct final rule. Therefore, a backfit analysis is not required. This direct final rule revises CoC No. 1032 for the Holtec HI-STORM FW MPC Storage System, as currently listed in 10 CFR 72.214, ``List of approved spent fuel storage casks.'' Amendment No. 0, Revision 1, corrects the CoC expiration date, clarifies heat load limits for helium backfill ranges, clarifies the wording for the LCO on vent blockage, and revises the vacuum drying system heat loads. Although Holtec has manufactured some casks under the existing CoC No. 1032, Amendment No. 0, that is being revised by this direct final rule, Holtec, as the vendor, is not subject to backfitting protection under 10 CFR 72.62. Moreover, Holtec requested the change and has requested to apply it to the existing casks manufactured under Amendment No. 0. Therefore, even if the vendor were deemed to be an entity protected from backfitting, this request represents a voluntary change and is not backfitting for Holtec. Under 10 CFR 72.62, general licensees are entities that are protected from backfitting, and in this instance, Holtec, has provided systems under CoC No.1032, Amendment No. 0, to a general licensee. General licensees are required, pursuant to 10 CFR 72.212, to ensure that each cask conforms to the terms, conditions, and specifications of a CoC, and that each cask can be safely used at the specific site in question. Because the casks delivered under CoC No. 1032, Amendment No. 0, now must be evaluated under 10 CFR 72.212 consistent with the revisions in CoC No. 1032, Amendment No. 0, Revision 1, this change in the evaluation method and criteria constitutes a change in a procedure required to operate an independent spent fuel storage installation (ISFSI) and, therefore, would constitute backfitting under 10 CFR 72.62(a)(2). However, in this instance, the general licensee voluntarily indicated their willingness to comply with the revised CoC, as long as the general licensee is provided adequate time to implement the revised CoC (ADAMS Accession No. ML15222A173). This direct final rule accommodates that request by providing an effective date for the final rule to April 25, 2016. Therefore, although the general licensee is an entity protected from backfitting, this request represents a voluntary change and is not backfitting for the general licensee. In addition, the changes in CoC No. 1032, Amendment No. 0, Revision 1, do not apply to casks which were manufactured to other amendments of CoC No. 1032, and therefore, have no effect on current ISFSI licensees using casks which were manufactured to other amendments of CoC No. 1032. For these reasons, approval of CoC No. 1032, Amendment No. 0, Revision 1, does not constitute backfitting for users of the HI-STORM FW MPC Storage System which were manufactured to other amendments of CoC No. 1032, under 10 CFR 72.62, 10 CFR 50.109(a)(1), or the issue finality provisions applicable to combined licenses in 10 CFR part 52. Accordingly, no backfit analysis or additional documentation addressing the issue finality criteria in 10 CFR part 52 has been prepared by the NRC staff. XIII. Congressional Review Act This action is not a rule as defined in the Congressional Review Act (5 U.S.C. 801-808). XIV.
