[NRC-2019-0195]
RIN 3150-AK38
List of Approved Spent Fuel Storage Casks: NAC International
MAGNASTOR[supreg] System, Certificate of Compliance No. 1031, Amendment
No. 8
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, Inc.
(NAC) MAGNASTOR[supreg] System listing within the ``List of approved
spent fuel storage casks'' to include Amendment No. 8 to Certificate of
Compliance No. 1031. Amendment No. 8 revises the technical
specifications to delete Technical Specification A5.6 and revise the
maximum pellet diameter in the technical specifications, Appendix B,
Table B2-3, from 0.325 inches to 0.3255 inches for the CE16H1 hybrid
fuel assembly, which includes Combustion Engineering 16 x 16 fuel
assemblies. These revisions are discussed in more detail in the
``Discussion of Changes'' section of this document.
DATES: This direct final rule is effective March 24, 2020, unless
significant adverse comments are received by February 10, 2020. If this
direct final rule is withdrawn as a result of such comments, timely

II. Rulemaking Procedure
This direct final rule is limited to the changes contained in
Amendment No. 8 to Certificate of Compliance No. 1031 and does not
include other aspects of the NAC MAGNASTOR[supreg] System
(MAGNASTOR[supreg] 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 certificate of compliance
that is expected to be noncontroversial. Adequate protection of public
health and safety continues to be reasonably assured. The amendment to
the rule will become effective on March 24, 2020. However, if the NRC
receives significant adverse comments on this direct final rule by
February 10, 2020, 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 Rules 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 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.
(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 to make a change (other than
editorial) to the rule, certificate of compliance, or technical
specifications.
For detailed instructions on filing comments, please see the
companion proposed rule published in the Proposed Rules section of this
issue of the Federal Register.
III. Background
Section 218(a) of the Nuclear Waste Policy Act of 1982, as amended,
requires that ``[t]he 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 Nuclear
Waste Policy Act 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, that approved the NAC MAGNASTOR[supreg] System
design and added it to the list of NRC-approved cask designs in Sec.
72.214 as Certificate of Compliance No. 1031 (73 FR 70587).
IV. Discussion of Changes
On September 12, 2018, as supplemented on November 2, 2018, June
14, 2019, and July 16, 2019, NAC submitted a request to amend
Certificate of Compliance No. 1031 for the MAGNASTOR[supreg] System.
Amendment No. 8 revises the technical specifications to delete
Technical Specification A5.6, ``Special Requirements for the First
System Placed in Service,'' and revises the maximum pellet diameter in
the technical specifications, Appendix B, Table B2-3, from 0.325 inches
to 0.3255 inches for the CE16H1 hybrid fuel assembly, which includes
Combustion Engineering 16 x 16 fuel assemblies. The revised certificate
of compliance and technical specifications are identified and evaluated
in the preliminary safety evaluation report.
As documented in that preliminary safety evaluation report, the NRC
performed a safety evaluation of the proposed certificate of compliance
amendment request. There are no significant changes to cask design
requirements in the proposed amendment. The design of the cask would
prevent loss of containment, shielding, and criticality control in the
event of each evaluated accident condition. This amendment does not
reflect a significant change in design or fabrication of the cask. In
addition, any resulting occupational exposure or offsite dose rates
from the implementation of Amendment No. 8 would remain well within the
limits specified by 10 CFR part 20, ``Standards for Protection Against
Radiation.'' There will be no significant change in the types or
amounts of any effluent
[[Page 1098]]
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 amended MAGNASTOR[supreg] System design, when used under the
conditions specified in the certificate of compliance, technical
specifications, 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 reasonably assured. When this direct final
rule becomes effective, persons who hold a general license under Sec.
72.210 may, consistent with the license conditions under Sec. 72.212,
load spent nuclear fuel into those MAGNASTOR[supreg] System casks that
meet the criteria of Amendment No. 8 to Certificate of Compliance No.
1031.
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] System design listed in Sec. 72.214. This
action does not constitute the establishment of a standard that
contains generally applicable requirements.
VI. Agreement State Compatibility
Under the ``Agreement State Program Policy Statement'' approved by
the Commission on October 2, 2017, and published in the Federal
Register on October 18, 2017 (82 FR 48535), 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 chapter I. Although an Agreement State may not adopt program
elements reserved to the NRC, and the Category ``NRC'' does not confer
regulatory authority on the State, the State may wish to inform its
licensees of certain requirements by means consistent with the
particular Agreement State's administrative procedure laws.
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
31885).
VIII. Environmental Assessment and Finding of No Significant Impact
Under the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969, as amended,
and the NRC's regulations in 10 CFR part 51, ``Environmental Protection
Regulations for Domestic Licensing and Related Regulatory Functions,''
the NRC has determined that this direct final 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.
A. The Action
The action is to amend Sec. 72.214 to revise the NAC
MAGNASTOR[supreg] System listing within the ``List of approved spent
fuel storage casks'' to include Amendment No. 8 to Certificate of
Compliance No. 1031.
B. The Need for the Action
This direct final rule amends the certificate of compliance for the
NAC MAGNASTOR[supreg] 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. 8 updates the certificate of compliance to delete Technical
Specification A5.6 and revise the maximum pellet diameter in the
technical specifications, Appendix B, Table B2-3, from 0.325 inches to
0.3255 inches for the CE16H1 hybrid fuel assembly, which includes
Combustion Engineering 16 x 16 fuel assemblies.
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. 8 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 of 1969, as amended.
The NAC MAGNASTOR[supreg] 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.
The design of the cask would prevent loss of confinement,
shielding, and criticality control in the event of each evaluated
accident condition. If there is no loss of confinement, shielding, or
criticality control, the environmental impacts resulting from an
accident would be insignificant. This amendment does not reflect a
significant change in design or fabrication of the cask.
Because there are no significant design or process changes, any
resulting occupational exposure or offsite dose rates from the
implementation of Amendment No. 8 would remain well within 10 CFR part
20 limits. Therefore, the proposed certificate of compliance changes
will not result in any radiological or non-radiological environmental
impacts that significantly differ 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
significant revisions in the amounts of any effluent released, no
significant increase in the individual or cumulative radiation
exposures, and no significant increase in the potential for, or
consequences of, radiological accidents. The NRC documented its safety
findings in a preliminary safety evaluation report.
D. Alternative to the Action
The alternative to this action is to deny approval of Amendment No.
8 and not issue the direct final rule. Consequently, any 10 CFR part 72
general licensee that seeks to load spent nuclear fuel into the NAC
MAGNASTOR[supreg] System in accordance with the changes described in
proposed Amendment No. 8 would have to request an exemption from the
requirements of Sec. Sec. 72.212 and 72.214. Under this alternative,
interested licensees would have to prepare, and the NRC would have to
review, a separate exemption request, thereby increasing the
administrative burden
[[Page 1099]]
upon the NRC and the costs to each licensee. The environmental impacts
would be the same as the proposed action.
E. Alternative Use of Resources
Approval of Amendment No. 8 to Certificate of Compliance No. 1031
would result in no irreversible commitment 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 the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969, as
amended, and the NRC's regulations in subpart A of 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 International MAGNASTOR[supreg] System, Certificate of
Compliance No. 1031, Amendment No. 8,'' 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.
IX. Paperwork Reduction Act Statement
This direct final rule does not contain any new or amended
collections of information subject to the Paperwork Reduction Act of
1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.). Existing collections of information were
approved by the Office of Management and Budget, approval number 3150-
0132.
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 direct final 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 (Sec. 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 (1) notifies the NRC in advance, (2) the spent fuel
is stored under the conditions specified in the cask's certificate of
compliance, and (3) the conditions of the general license are met. A
list of NRC-approved cask designs is contained in Sec. 72.214. On
November 21, 2008 (73 FR 70587), the NRC issued an amendment to 10 CFR
part 72 that approved the MAGNASTOR[supreg] System design by adding it
to the list of NRC-approved cask designs in Sec. 72.214.
On September 12, 2018, as supplemented on November 2, 2018, June
14, 2019, and July 16, 2019, NAC submitted a request to amend the
MAGNASTOR[supreg] System as described in Section IV, ``Discussion of
Changes,'' of this document.
The alternative to this action is to withhold approval of Amendment
No. 8 and to require any 10 CFR part 72 general licensee seeking to
load spent nuclear fuel into the NAC MAGNASTOR[supreg] System under the
changes described in Amendment No. 8 to request an exemption from the
requirements of Sec. Sec. 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 on the NRC and the costs to each
licensee.
Approval of this direct final rule is consistent with previous NRC
actions. Further, as documented in the preliminary safety evaluation
report and environmental assessment, this 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 this 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; therefore, this action
is recommended.
XII. Backfitting and Issue Finality
The NRC has determined that the backfit rule (Sec. 72.62) does not
apply to this direct final rule. Therefore, a backfit analysis is not
required. This direct final rule revises Certificate of Compliance No.
1031 for the NAC MAGNASTOR[supreg] System, as currently listed in Sec.
72.214. The revision consists of the changes in Amendment No. 8
previously described, as set forth in the revised certificate of
compliance and technical specifications.
Amendment No. 8 to Certificate of Compliance No. 1031 for the NAC
MAGNASTOR[supreg] System was initiated by NAC and was not submitted in
response to new NRC requirements, or an NRC request for amendment.
Amendment No. 8 applies only to new casks fabricated and used under
Amendment No. 8. These changes do not affect existing users of the NAC
MAGNASTOR[supreg] System, and previous amendments continue to be
effective for existing users. While current certificate of compliance
users may comply with the new requirements in Amendment No. 8, this
would be a voluntary decision on the part of current users.
For these reasons, Amendment No. 8 to Certificate of Compliance No.
1031 does not constitute backfitting under Sec. 72.62 or Sec.
50.109(a)(1), or otherwise represent an inconsistency with the issue
finality provisions applicable to combined licenses in 10 CFR part 52.
Accordingly, the NRC staff has not prepared a backfit analysis for this
rulemaking.
XIII. Congressional Review Act
This direct final rule is not a rule as defined in the
Congressional Review Act.
