NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION

[Docket No. 72-16]


Virginia Electric and Power Company; Notice of Docketing of the 
Materials License SNM-2507 Amendment Application for the North Anna 
Independent Spent Fuel Storage Installation

    By letter dated May 28, 2002, Virginia Electric and Power Company 
(Dominion) submitted an application to the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory 
Commission (NRC or Commission) in accordance with 10 CFR part 72 
requesting an amendment of the North Anna independent spent fuel 
storage installation (ISFSI) license (SNM-2507) for the ISFSI located 
in Louisa County, Virginia. Dominion is seeking Commission approval to 
amend its license to change the ISFSI's technical specifications 
regarding the type of spent fuel authorized for storage. Dominion has 
requested to change the technical specifications to allow the storage 
of spent nuclear fuel with higher initial enrichment and burnup than 
currently specified.
    This application was docketed under 10 CFR part 72; the ISFSI 
Docket No. is 72-16 and will remain the same for this action. The 
amendment of an ISFSI license is subject to the Commission's approval.
    The Commission may issue either a notice of hearing or a notice of 
proposed action and opportunity for hearing in accordance with 10 CFR 
72.46(b)(1) or, if a determination is made that the amendment does not 
present a genuine issue as to whether public health and safety will be 
significantly affected, take immediate action on the amendment in 
accordance with 10 CFR 72.46(b)(2) and provide notice of the action 
taken and an opportunity for interested persons to request a hearing on 
whether the action should be rescinded or modified.
    For further details with respect to this application, see the 
application dated May 28, 2002, which is available for public 
inspection at the Commission's Public Document Room, One White Flint 
North Building, 11555 Rockville Pike, Rockville, MD or from the 
publicly available records component of NRC's Agencywide Documents
