SUMMARY: The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) is confirming the
effective date of April 21, 2025, for the direct final rule that was
published in the Federal Register on February 4, 2025. This direct

Revision 1 to Amendment Nos. 0 through 2 to Certificate of Compliance
(CoC) No. 1040. Revision 1 to Amendment Nos. 0 through 2 updates the
CoC appendix A technical specifications for radiation protection and
the associated bases information to clearly articulate the basis for
the dose rate limits for the closure lids, modify the dose rate limit
values and the description of the location of the dose rate
measurements, and make other editorial changes.
DATES: Effective date: The effective date of April 21, 2025, for the

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On February 4, 2025 (90 FR 8861), the NRC
published a direct final rule amending its regulations in part 72 of
title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations to revise Amendment Nos. 0
through 2 to CoC No. 1040 for the Holtec International, HI-STORM UMAX
Cannister Storage System. Revision 1 to Amendment Nos. 0 through 2
update the CoC appendix A technical specifications for radiation
protection and the associated bases information to clearly articulate
the basis for the dose rate limits for the closure lids, modify the
dose rate limit values and the description of the location of the dose
rate measurements, and make other editorial changes. In the direct
final rule, the NRC stated that if no significant adverse comments were
received, the direct final rule would become effective on April 21,
2025. The NRC received one comment on the direct final rule that was
out of scope and not significantly adverse. Therefore, this direct
final rule will become effective as scheduled.
