NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION

[Docket No. 72-8 (50-317/318]


Baltimore Gas and Electric Co.; Issuance of Amendment to 
Materials License SNM-2505

    The U.S. Nuclear Regualtory Commission (the Commission) has issued 
Amendment No. 1 to Materials License No. SNM-2505 held by Baltimore Gas 
and Electric Company for the receipt and storage of spent fuel at the 
Calvert Cliffs Nuclear Power Plant in an independent spent fuel storage 
installation (ISFSI), located in Calvert County, Maryland. The 
amendment is effective as of the date of issuance.
    The amendment revises the Technical Specifications in the license 
to exempt the first two dry shielded canisters (DSC) (Serial Nos. BGE 
24P-R011 & BGE 24P-R002) from the Technical Specification limits on the 
vacuum drying process. The safety evaluation report on the amendment 
demonstrates that the first and second DSC meet the design criterion. 
The report also demonstrates that there is reasonable assurance that 
the public health and safety will not be endangered by activities 
authorized under this amendment and that the amendment will not have a 
significant impact on the human environment.
    The application for the 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. In accordance with 10 CFR 72.46(b)(2), prior public notice 
of the amendment was not required since the amendment does not involve 
a significant hazards consideration. Interested persons may request a 
hearing on whether the action should be rescinded or modified.
    The Commission has determined that the issuance of the amendment 
will not result in any significant environmental 

[[Page 39189]]
impact and that, pursuant to 10 CFR 51.21, an environmental assessment 
need not be prepared in connection with issuaance of the amendment.
    For further details with respect to this action, see (1) the 
application for amendment dated July 29, 1994, and additional 
information dated September 26 1994, and March 31, 1995, and (2) 
Amendment No. 1 to Materials License No. SNM-2505, with the 
Commission's letter to the licensee. All of these items are available 
for public inspection at the Commission's Public Document Room, the 
Gelman Building, 2120 L Street, NW., Washington, DC, and at the Local 
Public Document Room at the Calvert County Public Library, Fourth 
Street, PO Box 405, Price Frederick, Maryland 20678.

    Dated at Rockville, MD., this 21st day of July 1995.

    For the Nuclear Regulatory Commission,
William D. Travers,
Director, Spent Fuel Project Office, Office of Nuclear Material Safety 
and Safeguards.
