SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On March 13, 2001 (66 FR 14483), the NRC
published in the Federal Register a direct final rule amending its
regulations in 10 CFR 72 to revising the Holtec International HI-STAR
100 cask system listing within the ``List of approved spent fuel
storage casks'' to include Amendment No. 2 to the Certificate of
Compliance (CoC). Amendment No. 2 revises the HI-STAR 100 cask system
Appendix B of the Technical Specifications (TS), Item 1.4.6, ``Specific
Parameters and Analysis for the Storage Pad and Foundation'' to
simplify the language of this specification. The current 60-g limit for
cask drop and tipover events in TS Item 1.4.6 would remain unchanged.
This document confirms the effective date. In the direct final rule,
NRC stated that if no significant adverse comments were received, the
direct final rule would become final on the date noted above. The NRC
did not receive any comments that warranted withdrawal of the direct
final rule. Therefore, this rule will become effective as scheduled.
Dated at Rockville, Maryland, this 18th day of May 2001.
For the Nuclear Regulatory Commission.
Michael T. Lesar,
Chief, Rules and Directives Branch, Division of Administrative
Services, Office of Administration.
