SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On June 14, 2022 (87 FR 35858), the NRC 
published a direct final rule amending its regulations in part 72 of 
title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations to revise the NAC 
International NAC-UMS Universal Storage System listing in the ``List of 
approved spent fuel storage casks'' to include Amendment No. 9 of 
Certificate of Compliance No. 1015. Amendment No. 9 revises the 
technical specifications to correct the effective thermal properties 
for pressurized-water reactor fuel assemblies used in the certification 
basis ANSYS thermal models and update some modeling assumptions. In 
addition, this rulemaking makes editorial corrections to Amendment No. 
8. In the direct final rule, the NRC stated that if no significant 
adverse comments were received, the direct final rule would become 
effective on August 29, 2022. The NRC did not receive any comments on 
the direct final rule. Therefore, this direct final rule will become 
effective as scheduled.

    Dated: July 25, 2022.
