NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION
[Docket No. 72-2 (50-280/281)]


Notice of Issuance of Amendment to Materials License SNM-2501; 
Virginia Electric & Power Company, Surry Independent Spent Fuel Storage 
Installation

    The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (the Commission) has issued 
Amendment 9 to Materials License SNM-2501 held by Virginia Electric and 
Power Company (VA Power) for the receipt, possession, transfer, and 
storage of spent fuel at the Surry ISFSI, located in Surry County, 
Virginia. The amendment is effective as of the date of issuance.
    By application dated March 23, 1994, VA Power requested to amend 
its ISFSI license to authorize use of the TN-32 cask. 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.
    In accordance with 10 CFR 72.46(b)(2), a determination has been 
made that the amendment does not present a genuine issue as to whether 
public health and safety will be significantly affected. Therefore, the 
publication of a notice of proposed action and an opportunity for 
hearing or a notice of hearing is not warranted. Notice is hereby given 
of the right of interested persons to 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action should be rescinded or modified.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 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.
    Documents related to this action are available for public 
inspection at the Commission's Public Document Room located at the 
Gelman Building, 2120 L
