published a direct final rule amending its regulations in part 72 of 
title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations to include Renewed

analysis to evaluate site-specific accident scenarios, modify the cask 
design, modify operational and testing requirements, and make changes 
to the final safety analysis report.
    In the direct final rule, the NRC stated that if no significant 
adverse comments were received, the direct final rule would become 
effective on September 9, 2024. The NRC did not receive any comments on 
the direct final rule. Therefore, this direct final rule will become 
effective as scheduled.
