NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION
[Docket No. 72-4]

 

Duke Power Co.; Issuance of Amendment to Materials License SNM-
2503

    The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (the Commission) has issued 
Amendment No. 4 to Material License No. SNM-2503 held by Duke Power 
Company for the receipt and storage of spent fuel at the Oconee 
Independent Spent Fuel Storage Installation (ISFSI), located on the 
Oconee Nuclear Station site, Oconee County, South Carolina. This 
amendment is effective as of the date of issuance.
    The amendment revises section 5.4.1 of the Technical Specification 
regarding the concrete density of Horizontal Storage Module (HSM) from 
``a minimum of 145 pounds per cubic foot'' to ``a minimum of 140 pounds 
per cubic foot.'' This amendment does not affect fuel receipt, 
handling, and storage safety.
    The application for this amendment complies with the standards and 
requirements of the Atomic Energy Act of 1954, as amended (the Act), 
and the Commission's rules and regulations. The Commission has made 
appropriate findings as required by the Act and the Commission's rules 
and regulations in 10 CFR Chapter I, which are set forth in the license 
amendment. Prior public notice of the amendment was not required since 
the amendment does not involve a significant hazards consideration.
    The Commission has determined that the issuance of the amendment 
will not result in any significant environmental impact and that, 
pursuant to 10 CFR 51.22(c)(11), an environmental assessment need not 
be prepared in connection with issuance of the amendment.
    For further details with respect to this action, see (1) the 
application for amendment dated March 9, 1993, as supplemented by 
letter dated November 16, 1993; (2) Amendment No. 4 to Materials 
license No. SNM-2503; and (3) the Commission's letter to the licensee 
dated January 5, 1994. All of these items are available for public 
inspection at the Commission's Public Document Room, The Gelman 
Building, Lower Level, 2120 L Street, NW., Washington, DC, and the 
Oconee County Library, 501 W. South Broad Street, Walhalla, SC 29691.

    Dated at Rockville, Maryland, this 5th day of January 1994.

    For the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission.
Charles J. Haughney,
Chief, Storage and Transport Systems Branch, Division of Industrial and 
Medical Nuclear Safety, Office of Nuclear Material Safety and 
Safeguards.
