NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION
10 CFR Part 72
[NRC-2016-0137]
RIN 3150-AJ77
List of Approved Spent Fuel Storage Casks: NAC International
MAGNASTOR[supreg] Cask System; Certificate of Compliance No. 1031,
Amendment No. 6
AGENCY: Nuclear Regulatory Commission.
ACTION: Direct final rule.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) is amending its
spent fuel storage regulations by revising the NAC International (NAC),
MAGNASTOR[supreg] Cask System listing within the ``List of approved
spent fuel storage casks'' to include Amendment No. 6 to Certificate of
Compliance (CoC) No. 1031. Amendment No. 6 revises NAC-MAGNASTOR
technical specifications (TSs) to align with the NAC Multi-Purpose
Canister (MPC) and NAC Universal MPC System (UMS) TSs. The CoC No. 1031
TSs require that a program be established and maintained for loading,
unloading, and preparing fuel for storage without any indication of
duration for the program. Amendment No. 6 limits maintenance of this
program until all spent fuel is removed from the spent fuel pool and
transport operations are completed. Related training and radiation
protection program requirements are modified accordingly. Additionally,
Amendment No. 6 incorporates the change to Limiting Condition for
Operation (LCO) 3.1.1 previously approved by the NRC in CoC No. 1031
Amendment No. 4.
DATES: The direct final rule is effective December 21, 2016, unless
significant adverse comments are received by November 7, 2016. If the
direct final rule is withdrawn as a result of such comments, timely
notice of the withdrawal will be published in the Federal Register.
Comments received after this date will be considered if it is practical
to do so, but the Commission is able to ensure consideration only for
comments received on or before this date. Comments received on this
direct final rule will also be considered to be comments on a companion
proposed rule published in the Proposed Rules section of this issue of
the Federal Register.

II. Procedural Background
This rule is limited to the changes contained in Amendment No. 6 to
CoC No. 1031 and does not include other aspects of the NAC
MAGNASTOR[supreg] Cask System design. 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 December 21, 2016. However, if the NRC receives
significant adverse comments on this direct final rule by November 7,
2016, 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 in the Proposed
Rule section of 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 TSs.
For detailed instructions on filing comments, please see the
companion proposed rule published in the Proposed Rule section of this
issue of the Federal Register.
III. Background
Section 218(a) of the Nuclear Waste Policy Act (NWPA) of 1982, as
amended, requires that ``the Secretary [of the Department of Energy]
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 ``[the Commission] shall, by rule, establish
procedures for the licensing of any technology approved by the
Commission under Section 219(a) [sic: 218(a)] for use at the site of
any civilian nuclear power reactor.''
To implement this mandate, the Commission approved dry storage of
spent nuclear fuel in NRC-approved casks under a general license by
publishing a final rule which added a new subpart K in part 72 of title
10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR) 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 in 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
November 21, 2008 (73 FR 70587), that approved the NAC
MAGNASTOR[supreg] Cask System design and added it to the list of NRC-
approved cask designs in 10 CFR 72.214 as CoC No. 1031.
IV. Discussion of Changes
By letter dated December 11, 2015, NAC submitted a request to the
NRC to amend CoC No. 1031. As documented in the Preliminary Safety
Evaluation Report (PSER) and described further below, the NRC staff
performed a detailed safety evaluation of the proposed CoC Amendment 6
request. This direct final rule revises the NAC MAGNASTOR[supreg] Cask
System listing in 10 CFR 72.214 by adding Amendment No. 6 to CoC No.
1031. The amendment consists of the changes described below, as set
forth in the revised CoC and TSs. The revised TSs are identified in the
PSER.
Amendment No. 6 revises NAC-MAGNASTOR TSs to align with the NAC-MPC
and NAC-UMS TSs. The CoC No. 1031 TSs currently require that a program
be established and maintained for loading, unloading, and preparing
fuel for storage without any indication of duration for the program.
Amendment No. 6 clarifies the applicability of TS requirements
depending on the status of operations, limiting maintenance of certain
programs until all spent fuel is removed from the spent fuel pool and
transport operations are completed. Additionally, Amendment No. 6
incorporates the change to LCO 3.1.1 that was previously reviewed and
approved by the NRC in Amendment No. 4. The NRC staff determined that
Amendment No. 6 does not include changes to cask design requirements
and does not reflect a change in design or fabrication of the cask. The
NRC staff found that the TS and operating limit changes do not impact
the casks ability to continue to safely store spent fuel in accordance
with part 72 requirements.
The amended NAC MAGNASTOR[supreg] Cask System design, when used
under the conditions specified in the CoC, the TSs, and the NRC's
regulations, will meet the requirements of 10 CFR part 72; therefore,
adequate protection of public health and safety will continue to be
ensured. When this direct final rule becomes effective, persons who
hold a general license under 10 CFR 72.210 may load spent nuclear fuel
into the NAC MAGNASTOR[supreg] Cask System casks that meet the criteria
of Amendment No. 6 to CoC No. 1031 under 10 CFR 72.212.
V. 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 NAC MAGNASTOR[supreg] Cask System design listed in 10 CFR 72.214,
``List of approved spent fuel storage casks.'' This action does not
constitute the establishment of a standard that contains generally
applicable requirements.
[[Page 69661]]
VI. 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, or the provisions of 10 CFR. Although an Agreement
State may not adopt program elements reserved to the 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.
VII. Plain Writing
The Plain Writing Act of 2010 (Pub. L. 111-274) requires Federal
agencies to write documents in a clear, concise, and well-organized
manner. The NRC has written this document to be consistent with the
Plain Writing Act as well as the Presidential Memorandum, ``Plain
Language in Government Writing,'' published June 10, 1998 (63 FR
31883).
VIII. Environmental Assessment and Finding of No Significant
Environmental Impact
A. The Action
The action is to amend 10 CFR 72.214 to revise the NAC
MAGNASTOR[supreg] Cask System listing within the ``List of approved
spent fuel storage casks'' to include Amendment No. 6 to CoC No. 1031.
Under the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969, as amended, and
the NRC's regulations in subpart A of 10 CFR part 51, ``Environmental
Protection Regulations for Domestic Licensing and Related Regulatory
Functions,'' 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 made a finding of no significant impact on
the basis of this environmental assessment.
B. The Need for the Action
This direct final rule amends the CoC for the NAC MAGNASTOR[supreg]
Cask System 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. Specifically, Amendment No. 6 revises
NAC-MAGNASTOR TSs to align with the NAC-MPC and NAC-UMS TSs. The CoC
No. 1031 TSs require that a program be established and maintained for
loading, unloading, and preparing fuel for storage without any
indication of duration for the program. Amendment No. 6 limits
maintenance of this program until all spent fuel is removed from the
spent fuel pool and transport operations are completed. Related
training and radiation protection program requirements are modified
accordingly. Additionally, Amendment No. 6 incorporates the change to
LCO 3.1.1 previously approved by the NRC in CoC No. 1031 Amendment No.
4.
C. Environmental Impacts of the Action
On July 18,1990 (55 FR 29181), the NRC issued an amendment to 10
CFR part 72 to provide for the storage of spent fuel under a general
license in cask designs approved by the NRC. The potential
environmental impact of using NRC-approved storage casks was initially
analyzed in the environmental assessment for the 1990 final rule. The
environmental assessment for this Amendment No. 6 tiers off of the
environmental assessment for the July 18, 1990, final rule. Tiering on
past environmental assessments is a standard process under the National
Environmental Policy Act.
The NAC MAGNASTOR[supreg] Cask System is designed to mitigate the
effects of design basis accidents that could occur during storage.
Design basis accidents account for human-induced events and the most
severe natural phenomena reported for the site and surrounding area.
Postulated accidents analyzed for an Independent Spent Fuel Storage
Installation, the type of facility at which a holder of a power reactor
operating license would store spent fuel in casks in accordance with 10
CFR part 72, include tornado winds and tornado-generated missiles, a
design basis earthquake, a design basis flood, an accidental cask drop,
lightning effects, fire, explosions, and other incidents.
Considering the specific design requirements for each accident
condition, the design of the cask would prevent loss of confinement,
shielding, and criticality control. If there is no loss of confinement,
shielding, or criticality control, the environmental impacts would be
insignificant. This amendment does not reflect a change in design or
fabrication of the cask. There are no changes to cask design
requirements in the proposed CoC amendment. In addition, because there
are no design or significant process changes, any resulting
occupational exposure or offsite dose rates from the implementation of
Amendment No. 6 would remain well within the 10 CFR part 20 limits.
Therefore, the proposed CoC changes will not result in any radiological
or non-radiological environmental impacts that differ significantly
from the environmental impacts evaluated in the environmental
assessment supporting the July 18, 1990, final rule. There will be no
significant change in the types or revisions in the amounts of any
effluent released, no significant increase in the individual or
cumulative radiation exposure and no significant increase in the
potential for or consequences from radiological accidents. The NRC
staff documented its safety findings in a PSER.
D. Alternative to the Action
The alternative to this action is to deny approval of Amendment No.
6 and end the direct final rule. Consequently, any 10 CFR part 72
general licensee that seeks to load spent nuclear fuel into the NAC
MAGNASTOR[supreg] Cask System in accordance with the changes described
in proposed Amendment No. 6 would have to request an exemption from the
requirements of 10 CFR 72.212 and 72.214. Under this alternative, an
interested 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.
Therefore, the environmental impacts would be the same or less than the
action.
E. Alternative Use of Resources
Approval of Amendment No. 6 to CoC No. 1031 would result in no
irreversible commitments of resources.
F. Agencies and Persons Contacted
No agencies or persons outside the NRC were contacted in connection
with the preparation of this environmental assessment.
G. Finding of No Significant Impact
The environmental impacts of the action have been reviewed under
the requirements in 10 CFR part 51. Based on the foregoing
environmental assessment, the NRC concludes that this direct final rule
entitled, ``List of Approved Spent Fuel Storage Casks: NAC
MAGNASTOR[supreg] Cask System, Amendment No. 6'' will not have a
significant effect on the human environment. Therefore, the NRC has
determined that an environmental impact statement is not necessary for
this direct final rule.
[[Page 69662]]
IX. Paperwork Reduction Act Statement
This rule does not contain any information collection requirements,
and is therefore not subject to the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44
U.S.C. 3501 et seq.).
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
Office of Management and Budget control number.
X. 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 NAC. 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).
XI. 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, the 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 November 21, 2008 (73 FR
70587), the NRC issued an amendment to 10 CFR part 72 that approved the
NAC MAGNASTOR[supreg] Cask System design by adding it to the list of
NRC-approved cask designs in 10 CFR 72.214.
By letter dated December 11, 2015, NAC submitted an application to
amend the NAC MAGNASTOR[supreg] Cask System as described in Section IV,
``Discussion of Changes,'' of this document.
The alternative to this action is to withhold approval of Amendment
No. 6 and to require any 10 CFR part 72 general licensee seeking to
load spent nuclear fuel into the NAC MAGNASTOR[supreg] Cask System
under the changes described in Amendment No. 6 to request an exemption
from the requirements of 10 CFR 72.212 and 72.214. Under this
alternative, each interested 10 CFR 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 PSER and the environmental
assessment, the direct final rule will have no adverse effect on public
health and safety or the environment. 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 therefore, this action is recommended.
XII. Backfitting and Issue Finality
The NRC has determined that the backfit rule (10 CFR 72.62) does
not apply to this direct final rule. Therefore, a backfit analysis is
not required. This direct final rule revises CoC No. 1031 for the NAC
MAGNASTOR[supreg] Cask System, as currently listed in 10 CFR 72.214,
``List of approved spent fuel storage casks.'' Amendment No. 6 revises
NAC-MAGNASTOR TSs to align with the NAC-MPC and NAC-UMS TSs. The CoC
No. 1031 TSs require that a program be established and maintained for
loading, unloading, and preparing fuel for storage without any
indication of duration for the program. Amendment No. 6 limits
maintenance of this program until all spent fuel is removed from the
spent fuel pool and transport operations are completed. Related
training and radiation protection program requirements are modified
accordingly. Additionally, Amendment No. 6 incorporates the change to
LCO 3.1.1 previously approved by the NRC in CoC No. 1031 Amendment No.
4.
Amendment No. 6 to CoC No. 1031 for the NAC MAGNASTOR[supreg] Cask
System was initiated by NAC and was not submitted in response to new
NRC requirements, or an NRC request for amendment. Amendment No. 6
applies only to new casks fabricated and used under Amendment No. 6.
These changes do not affect existing users of the NAC MAGNASTOR[supreg]
Cask System, and Amendment Nos. 1-3, Revisions 1, as well as Revision 1
of the Initial Certificate, and Amendments Nos. 4-5 continue to be
effective for existing users. While current CoC users may comply with
the new requirements in Amendment No. 6, this would be a voluntary
decision on the part of current users. For these reasons, Amendment No.
6 to CoC No. 1031 does not constitute backfitting under 10 CFR 72.62,
10 CFR 50.109(a)(1), or otherwise represent an inconsistency with the
issue finality provisions applicable to combined licenses in 10 CFR
part 52. Accordingly, no backfit analysis or additional documentation
addressing the issue finality criteria in 10 CFR part 52 has been
prepared by the NRC staff.
XIII. Congressional Review Act
The Office of Management and Budget has not found this to be a
major rule as defined in the Congressional Review Act.
