ACTION: Direct final rule; confirmation of effective date.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) is confirming the
effective date of November 5, 2024, for the direct final rule that was
published in the Federal Register on August 22, 2024. This direct final
rule amended the agency's rules of practice and procedure to improve
access to documents and make e-filing rules technology neutral, to
delete an obsolete regulation, to clarify the applicability of subpart
L and subpart N procedures, to enhance internal consistency for page
limit requirements, to enhance consistency with the Federal Rules of
Evidence for ``true copies,'' and to better reflect current Atomic
Safety and Licensing Board Panel practice regarding admission of
evidence.
DATES: Effective date: The effective date of November 5, 2024, for the
direct final rule published in the Federal Register on August 22, 2024
(89 FR 67830), is confirmed.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On August 22, 2024 (89 FR 67830), the NRC
published a direct final rule amending its regulations in part 2 of
title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations to revise the agency's
rules of practice and procedure to improve access to documents and make
e-filing rules technology neutral, to delete an obsolete regulation, to
clarify the applicability of Subpart L and Subpart N procedures, to
enhance internal consistency for page limit requirements, to enhance
consistency with the Federal Rules of Evidence for ``true copies,'' and
to better reflect current Atomic Safety and Licensing Board Panel
practice regarding admission of evidence. In the direct final rule, the
NRC stated that if no significant adverse comments were received, the
direct final rule would become effective on November 5, 2024. The NRC
received one anonymous comment, which can be viewed at ADAMS Accession
No. ML24256A206; the comment was not a significant adverse comment on
the direct final rule. Therefore, this direct final rule will become
effective as scheduled.
Dated: October 1, 2024.
