**SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:**
**I. Introduction**
Under contract with the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC), The Pacific Northwest National Laboratory prepared a draft NUREG/CR report, “Spent Fuel Transportation Package Response to the Baltimore Tunnel Fire (BTF) Scenario.” This NUREG/CR documents the thermal analyses of three different spent fuel transportation packages exposed to the BTF scenario: TransNuclear TN-68, Holtec HI-STAR 100 and the NAC LWT. Consequence analyses prepared by the Spent Fuel Project Office staff are also included.
The NRC is soliciting public comments on this draft NUREG/CR which will be considered in the final version or subsequent revisions.
**II. Summary**
The purpose of this notice is to provide the public an opportunity to review and comment on the Draft NUREG/CR thermal analyses, the consequence analyses and the conclusions.
