SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On August 13, 2021 (86 FR 44594), the NRC 
published a direct final rule amending its regulations in part 72 of 
title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations to renew, for an additional 
40 years, the initial certificate and Amendment Nos. 1, 3, and 4 of the 
TN Americas, LLC, Standardized Advanced NUHOMS[supreg] Horizontal 
Modular Storage System Certificate of Compliance No. 1029. The renewal 
of the initial certificate and Amendment Nos. 1, 3, and 4 revise the 
certificate of compliance's conditions and technical specifications to 
address aging management activities related to the structures, systems, 
and components of the dry storage system to ensure that these will 
maintain their intended functions during the period of extended storage 
operations.
    In the direct final rule, the NRC stated that if no significant 
adverse comments were received, the direct final rule would become 
effective on October 27, 2021. The NRC did not receive any comments on 
the direct final rule. Therefore, this direct final rule will become 
effective as scheduled.

    Dated: September 30, 2021.
