On February 1, 2007 (72 FR 4615), the NRC published a direct final rule amending its regulations in 10 CFR part 72 to revise the Transnuclear, Inc., Standardized NUHOMS® System listing within the “List of Approved Spent Fuel Storage Casks” to include Amendment No. 9 to CoC No. 1004. This amendment revises Technical Specifications 1.2.1 and 1.2.14 to add the Framatome-ANP, Version 9x9-2 fuel assemblies as approved contents for storage in the NUHOMS-61BT dry shielded canister. In the direct final rule, NRC stated that if no significant adverse comments were received, the direct final rule would become final on April 17, 2007. The NRC did not receive any comments that warranted withdrawal of the direct final rule. Therefore, this rule will become effective as scheduled.
