SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On April 18, 2006 (71 FR 19806), the NRC

[[Page 35148]]

Amendment No. 4 to CoC No. 1026. This amendment revises the Technical 
Specifications related to periodic monitoring during storage operations 
to permit longer surveillance intervals for casks with heat loads lower 
than the design basis heat load and to permit visual inspection of the 
cask vent screens or measurement of the cask liner temperature. In the 
direct final rule, NRC stated that if no significant adverse comments 
were received, the direct final rule would become final on July 3, 
2006. 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 13th, day of June, 2006.

    For the Nuclear Regulatory Commission.
Michael T. Lesar,
Chief, Rules and Directives Branch, Division of Administrative 
Services, Office of Administration.
