RIN 3150-AI24
List of Approved Spent Fuel Storage Casks: HI-STORM 100 Revision
5
AGENCY: Nuclear Regulatory Commission.
ACTION: Direct final rule.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) is amending its spent
fuel storage cask regulations by revising the Holtec International HI-
STORM 100 cask system listing within the ``List of Approved Spent Fuel
Storage Casks'' to include Amendment No. 5 to Certificate of Compliance
(CoC) Number 1014. Amendment No. 5 includes deletion of the requirement
to perform thermal validation tests on thermal systems; an increase in
the design basis maximum decay heat loads, namely, to 34 kilowatts (kW)
for uniform loading and 36.9 kW for regionalized loading, and
introduction of a new decay heat regionalized scheme; an increase in
the maximum fuel assembly weight for boiling water reactor fuel in the
Multi-Purpose Canister (MPC)-68 from 700 to 730 pounds; an increase in
the maximum fuel assembly weight of up to 1,720 pounds for assemblies
not requiring spacers, otherwise 1,680 pounds; changes to the assembly
characteristics of 16 x 16 pressurized water reactor fuel assemblies to
be qualified for storage in the HI-STORM 100 cask system; a change in
the fuel storage locations in the MPC-32 for fuel with axial power
shaping rod assemblies and in the fuel storage locations in the MPC-24,
MPC-24E, and the MPC-32 for fuel with control rod assemblies, rod
cluster control assemblies, and control element assemblies; elimination
of the restriction that fuel debris can only be loaded into the MPC-
24EF, MPC-32F, MPC-68F, and MPC-68FF canisters; introduction of a
requirement that all MPC confinement boundary components and any MPC
components exposed to spent fuel pool water or the ambient environment
be made of stainless steel or, for MPC internals, neutron absorber or
aluminum; the addition of a threshold heat load below which operation
of the Supplemental Cooling System would not be required and
modification of the design criteria to simplify the system; minor
editorial changes to include clarification of the description of
anchored casks, correction of typographical/editorial errors,
clarification of the definitions of loading operations, storage
operations, transport operations, unloading operations, cask loading
facility, and transfer cask in various locations throughout the CoC and
Final Safety Analysis Report; and modification of the definition of
non-fuel hardware to include the individual parts of the items defined
as non-fuel hardware.
DATES: The final rule is effective March 17, 2008, unless significant
adverse comments are received by January 30, 2008. A significant
adverse comment is a comment where the commenter explains why the rule
would be inappropriate, including challenges to the rule's underlying
premise or approach, or would be ineffective or unacceptable without a
change. If the rule is withdrawn, timely notice will be published in
the Federal Register.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
Section 218(a) of the Nuclear Waste Policy Act of 1982, as amended
(NWPA), requires that ``[t]he Secretary [of the Department of Energy
(DOE)] shall establish a demonstration program, in cooperation with the
private sector, for the dry storage of spent nuclear fuel at civilian
nuclear power reactor sites, with the objective of establishing one or
more technologies that the [Nuclear Regulatory] Commission may, by
rule, approve for use at the sites of civilian nuclear power reactors
without, to the maximum extent practicable, the need for additional
site-specific approvals by the Commission.'' Section 133 of the NWPA
states, in part, that ``[t]he Commission shall, by rule, establish
procedures for the licensing of any technology approved by the
Commission under Section 218(a) for use at the site of any civilian
nuclear power reactor.''
To implement this mandate, the NRC approved dry storage of spent
nuclear fuel in NRC-approved casks under a general license by
publishing a final rule in 10 CFR Part 72, which added a new Subpart K
within 10 CFR Part 72, entitled ``General License for Storage of Spent
Fuel at Power Reactor Sites'' (55 FR 29181; July 18, 1990). This rule
also established a new Subpart L within 10 CFR Part 72, entitled
``Approval of Spent Fuel Storage Casks,'' which contains procedures and
criteria for obtaining NRC approval of spent fuel storage cask designs.
The NRC subsequently issued a final rule on May 1, 2000 (65 FR 25241)
that approved the HI-STORM 100 cask system design and added it to the
list of NRC-approved cask designs in 10 CFR 72.214 as CoC No. 1014.
Discussion
On December 30, 2004, the certificate holder, Holtec International
(Holtec) submitted an application to the NRC that requested an
amendment to CoC No. 1014. The amendment principally included changes
to increase the design basis maximum decay heat loads of the HI-STORM
100 cask system and add a new underground storage configuration,
designated the HI-STORM 100U, to the CoC. On November 29, 2006, Holtec
withdrew the portion of the application that added the HI-STORM 100U to
the CoC. The application, as modified by the December 22, 2006,
Revision 2, submittal, and as supplemented on March 20, 2007, March 30,
2007, May 4, 2007, May 22, 2007, June 15, 2007, July 17, 2007, and
September 6, 2007, requested changes to the CoC, the TS, and the Final
Safety Analysis Report (FSAR), to modify the HI-STORM 100 cask system.
Specifically, the proposed changes included deletion of the requirement
to perform thermal validation tests on thermal systems; an increase in
the design basis maximum decay heat loads, namely, to 34 kW for uniform
loading and 36.9 kW for regionalized loading, and introduction of a new
decay heat regionalized scheme; increase in the maximum fuel assembly
weight for boiling water reactor fuel in the MPC-68 from 700 to 730
pounds; an increase in the maximum fuel assembly weight of up to 1,720
pounds for assemblies not requiring spacers, otherwise 1,680 pounds;
changes to the assembly characteristics of 16 x 16 pressurized water
reactor (PWR) fuel assemblies to be qualified for storage in the HI-
STORM 100 cask system; a change in the fuel storage locations in the
MPC-32 for fuel with axial power shaping rod assemblies (APSRAs) and in
the fuel storage locations in the MPC-24, MPC-24E, and the MPC-32 for
fuel with control rod assemblies (CRAs), rod cluster control assemblies
(RCCAs), and control element assemblies (CEAs); elimination of the
restriction that fuel debris can only be loaded into the MPC-24EF, MPC-
32F, MPC-68F, and MPC-68FF canisters; introduction of a requirement
that all MPC confinement boundary components and any MPC components
exposed to spent fuel pool water or the ambient environment be made of
stainless steel or, for MPC internals, neutron absorber or aluminum;
the addition of a threshold heat load below which operation of the
Supplemental Cooling System (SCS) would not be required and
modification of the design criteria to simplify the system; minor
editorial changes to include clarification of the description of
anchored casks, correction of typographical/editorial errors,
clarification of the definitions of loading operations, storage
operations, transport operations, unloading operations, cask loading
facility, and transfer cask in various locations throughout the CoC and
the FSAR; and modification of the definition of non-fuel hardware to
include the individual parts of the items defined as non-fuel hardware.
No other changes to the Holtec HI-STORM 100 cask system were
requested in this application. As documented in the SER, the NRC staff
performed a detailed safety evaluation of the proposed CoC amendment
request and found that an acceptable safety margin is maintained. In
addition, the NRC staff has determined that there continues to be
reasonable assurance that public health and safety and the environment
will be adequately protected.
This direct final rule revises the HI-STORM 100 cask system listing
in 10 CFR 72.214 by adding Amendment No. 5 to CoC No. 1014. The
amendment consists of the changes described above, as set forth in the
revised CoC and TS. The particular TS which are changed are identified
in the SER.
The amended HI-STORM 100 cask design, when used under the
conditions specified in the CoC, the TS, and NRC regulations, will meet
the requirements of Part 72; thus, adequate protection of public health
and safety will continue to be ensured. After this direct final rule
becomes effective, persons who hold a
[[Page 74164]]
general license under 10 CFR 72.210 may load spent nuclear fuel into
HI-STORM 100 casks that meet the criteria of Amendment No. 5 to CoC No.
1014, in accordance with 10 CFR 72.212.
Discussion of Amendments by Section
Section 72.214 List of approved spent fuel storage casks.
Certificate No. 1014 is revised by adding the effective date of
Amendment No. 5.
Procedural Background
This rule is limited to the changes contained in Amendment No. 5 to
CoC No. 1014 and does not include other aspects of the HI-STORM 100 dry
storage cask system. The NRC is using the ``direct final rule
procedure'' to issue this amendment because it represents a limited and
routine change to an existing CoC that is expected to be
noncontroversial. Adequate protection of public health and safety
continues to be ensured. The amendment to the rule will become
effective on March 17, 2008. However, if the NRC receives significant
adverse comments on this direct final rule by January 30, 2008, then
the NRC will publish a document that withdraws this action and will
subsequently address the comments received in a final rule as a
response to the companion proposed rule published elsewhere in this
issue of the Federal Register. Absent significant modifications to the
proposed revisions requiring republication, the NRC will not initiate a
second comment period on this action.
A significant adverse comment is a comment where the commenter
explains why the rule would be inappropriate, including challenges to
the rule's underlying premise or approach, or would be ineffective or
unacceptable without a change. A comment is adverse and significant if:
(1) The comment opposes the rule and provides a reason sufficient
to require a substantive response in a notice-and-comment process. For
example, a substantive response is required when:
(a) The comment causes the NRC staff to reevaluate (or reconsider)
its position or conduct additional analysis;
(b) The comment raises an issue serious enough to warrant a
substantive response to clarify or complete the record; or
(c) The comment raises a relevant issue that was not previously
addressed or considered by the NRC staff.
(2) The comment proposes a change or an addition to the rule, and
it is apparent that the rule would be ineffective or unacceptable
without incorporation of the change or addition.
(3) The comment causes the NRC staff to make a change (other than
editorial) to the rule, CoC, or TS.
Voluntary Consensus Standards
The National Technology Transfer and Advancement Act of 1995 (Pub.
L. 104-113) requires that Federal agencies use technical standards that
are developed or adopted by voluntary consensus standards bodies unless
the use of such a standard is inconsistent with applicable law or
otherwise impractical. In this direct final rule, the NRC will revise
the HI-STORM 100 cask design listed in Sec. 72.214 (List of NRC-
approved spent fuel storage cask designs). This action does not
constitute the establishment of a standard that contains generally
applicable requirements.
Agreement State Compatibility
Under the ``Policy Statement on Adequacy and Compatibility of
Agreement State Programs'' approved by the Commission on June 30, 1997,
and published in the Federal Register on September 3, 1997 (62 FR
46517), this rule is classified as Compatibility Category ``NRC.''
Compatibility is not required for Category ``NRC'' regulations. The NRC
program elements in this category are those that relate directly to
areas of regulation reserved to the NRC by the Atomic Energy Act of
1954, as amended (AEA), or the provisions of Title 10 of the Code of
Federal Regulations. Although an Agreement State may not adopt program
elements reserved to NRC, it may wish to inform its licensees of
certain requirements via a mechanism that is consistent with the
particular State's administrative procedure laws but does not confer
regulatory authority on the State.
Plain Language
The Presidential Memorandum, ``Plain Language in Government
Writing,'' published June 10, 1998 (63 FR 31883), directed that the
Government's documents be in clear and accessible language. The NRC
requests comments on this direct final rule specifically with respect
to the clarity and effectiveness of the language used. Comments should
be sent to the address listed under the heading ADDRESSES, above.
Finding of No Significant Environmental Impact: Availability
Under the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969, as amended,
and the NRC regulations in Subpart A of 10 CFR Part 51, the NRC has
determined that this rule, if adopted, would not be a major Federal
action significantly affecting the quality of the human environment
and, therefore, an environmental impact statement is not required. The
NRC has prepared an environmental assessment and, on the basis of this
environmental assessment, has made a finding of no significant impact.
This rule will amend the CoC for the HI-STORM 100 cask design within
the list of approved spent fuel storage casks that power reactor
licensees can use to store spent fuel at reactor sites under a general
license.
The amendment will include deletion of the requirement to perform
thermal validation tests on thermal systems; an increase in the design
basis maximum decay heat loads, namely, to 34 kW for uniform loading
and 36.9 kW for regionalized loading, and introduction of a new decay
heat regionalized scheme; an increase in the maximum fuel assembly
weight for BWR fuel in the MPC-68 from 700 to 730 pounds; an increase
in the maximum fuel assembly weight of up to 1,720 pounds for
assemblies not requiring spacers, otherwise 1,680 pounds; changes to
the assembly characteristics of 16 x 16 pressurized water reactor fuel
assemblies to be qualified for storage in the HI-STORM 100 cask system;
a change in the fuel storage locations in the MPC-32 for fuel with
APSRAs and in the fuel storage locations in the MPC-24, MPC-24E, and
the MPC-32 for fuel with CRAs, RCCAs, and CEAs; elimination of the
restriction that fuel debris can only be loaded into the MPC-24EF, MPC-
32F, MPC-68F, and MPC-68FF canisters; introduction of a requirement
that all MPC confinement boundary components and any MPC components
exposed to spent fuel pool water or the ambient environment be made of
stainless steel or, for MPC internals, neutron absorber or aluminum;
the addition of a threshold heat load below which operation of the SCS
would not be required and modification of the design criteria to
simplify the system; minor editorial changes to include clarification
of the description of anchored casks, correction of typographical/
editorial errors, clarification of the definitions of loading
operations, storage operations, transport operations, unloading
operations, cask loading facility, and transfer cask in various
locations throughout the CoC and FSAR; and modification of the
definition of non-fuel hardware to include the individual parts of the
items defined as non-fuel hardware.

[email protected].
Paperwork Reduction Act Statement
This direct final rule does not contain a new or amended
information collection requirement subject to the Paperwork Reduction
Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501, et seq.). Existing requirements were
approved by the Office of Management and Budget, Approval Number 3150-
0132, 10 CFR Part 72.
Public Protection Notification
The NRC may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required to
respond to, a request for information or an information collection
requirement unless the requesting document displays a currently valid
OMB control number.
Regulatory Analysis
On July 18, 1990 (55 FR 29181), the NRC issued an amendment to 10
CFR Part 72 to provide for the storage of spent nuclear fuel under a
general license in cask designs approved by the NRC. Any nuclear power
reactor licensee can use NRC-approved cask designs to store spent
nuclear fuel if it notifies the NRC in advance, spent fuel is stored
under the conditions specified in the cask's CoC, and the conditions of
the general license are met. A list of NRC-approved cask designs is
contained in 10 CFR 72.214. On May 1, 2000 (65 FR 25241), the NRC
issued an amendment to Part 72 that approved the HI-STORM 100 cask
design by adding it to the list of NRC-approved cask designs in 10 CFR
72.214. On December 30, 2004, the certificate holder, Holtec, submitted
an application to the NRC that requested an amendment to CoC No. 1014.
The amendment principally included changes to increase the design basis
maximum decay heat loads of the HI-STORM 100 cask system and add a new
underground storage configuration, designated the HI-STORM 100U, to the
CoC. On November 29, 2006, Holtec withdrew the portion of the
application that would have added the HI-STORM 100U to the CoC. The
application, as modified on December 22, 2006 (Revision 2), and as
supplemented on March 20, 2007, March 30, 2007, May 4, 2007, May 22,
2007, June 15, 2007, July 17, 2007, and September 6, 2007, requested
changes to the CoC, the TS, and the FSAR to modify the HI-STORM 100
cask system.
Specifically, the proposed changes included deletion of the
requirement to perform thermal validation tests on thermal systems; an
increase in the design basis maximum decay heat loads, namely, to 34 kW
for uniform loading and 36.9 kW for regionalized loading, and
introduction of a new decay heat regionalized scheme; increase in the
maximum fuel assembly weight for BWR fuel in the MPC-68 from 700 to 730
pounds; an increase in the maximum fuel assembly weight of up to 1,720
pounds for assemblies not requiring spacers, otherwise 1,680 pounds;
changes to the assembly characteristics of 16x16 pressurized water
reactor fuel assemblies to be qualified for storage in the HI-STORM 100
cask system; a change in the fuel storage locations in the MPC-32 for
fuel with APSRAs and in the fuel storage locations in the MPC-24, MPC-
24E, and the MPC-32 for fuel with CRAs, RCCAs, and CEAs; elimination of
the restriction that fuel debris can only be loaded into the MPC-24EF,
MPC-32F, MPC-68F, and MPC-68FF canisters; introduction of a requirement
that all MPC confinement boundary components and any MPC components
exposed to spent fuel pool water or the ambient environment be made of
stainless steel or, for MPC internals, neutron absorber or aluminum;
the addition of a threshold heat load below which operation of the SCS
would not be required and modification of the design criteria to
simplify the system; minor editorial changes to include clarification
of the description of anchored casks, correction of typographical/
editorial errors, clarification of the definitions of loading
operations, storage operations, transport operations, unloading
operations, cask loading facility, and transfer cask in various
locations throughout the CoC and the FSAR; and modification of the
definition of non-fuel hardware to include the individual parts of the
items defined as non-fuel hardware.
The alternative to this action is to withhold approval of Amendment
No. 5 and to require any Part 72 general licensee, seeking to load
spent fuel into HI-STORM 100 casks under the changes described in
Amendment No. 5, to request an exemption from the requirements of 10
CFR 72.212 and 72.214. Under this alternative, each interested Part 72
licensee would have to prepare, and the NRC would have to review, a
separate exemption request, thereby increasing the administrative
burden upon the NRC and the costs to each licensee.
Approval of the direct final rule is consistent with previous NRC
actions. Further, as documented in the SER and the environmental
assessment, the direct final rule will have no adverse effect on public
health and safety. This direct final rule has no significant
identifiable impact or benefit on other Government agencies. Based on
this regulatory analysis, the NRC concludes that the requirements of
the direct final rule are commensurate with the NRC's responsibilities
for public health and safety and the common defense and security. No
other available alternative is believed to be as satisfactory, and
thus, this action is recommended.
Regulatory Flexibility Certification
Under the Regulatory Flexibility Act of 1980 (5 U.S.C. 605(b)), the
NRC certifies that this rule will not, if issued, have a significant
economic impact on a substantial number of small entities. This direct
final rule affects only nuclear power plant licensees and Holtec. These
entities do not fall within the scope of the definition of ``small
entities'' set forth in the Regulatory Flexibility Act or the size
standards established by the NRC (10 CFR 2.810).
Backfit Analysis
The NRC has determined that the backfit rule (10 CFR 72.62) does
not apply to this direct final rule because this amendment does not
involve any provisions that would impose backfits as defined in 10 CFR
Chapter I. Therefore, a backfit analysis is not required.
Congressional Review Act
Under the Congressional Review Act of 1996, the NRC has determined
that this action is not a major rule and has verified this
determination with the Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs,
Office of Management and Budget.
