SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On February 27, 2025 (90 FR 10781), the NRC
published a direct final rule amending its regulations in part 72 of
title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations to revise the NAC
International, Inc. Multi-Purpose Canister System listing within the
``List of approved spent fuel storage casks'' to include Amendment No.
9 and revision to Amendment Nos. 6, 7, and 8. Amendment No. 9 and
revision to Amendment Nos. 6, 7, and 8 revises the description of the
vertical concrete cask (VCC) in the certificate of compliance and
technical specifications to make a distinction between the VCC body and
the VCC lid, in terms of applicability of the American Concrete
Institute (ACI) Specifications ACI 349 and ACI 318.
In the direct final rule, the NRC stated that if no significant
adverse comments were received, the direct final rule would become
effective on May 13, 2025. The NRC received and docketed one comment on
the companion proposed rule (90 FR 10799; February 27, 2025). An
electronic copy of the comment can be obtained from the Federal
Rulemaking website at <a href="https://www.regulations.gov">https://www.regulations.gov</a> under Docket ID NRC-
2024-0200 and is also available in ADAMS under Accession No.
ML25090A312. The NRC evaluated the comment against the criteria
described in the direct final rule and determined that the comment was
not significant and adverse. Specifically, the comment was outside the
scope of this rulemaking and did not oppose the rule; propose a change
or an addition to the rule; or cause the NRC to make a change to the
rule, the certificate of compliance, or the technical specifications.
Therefore, this direct final rule will become effective as scheduled.
Dated: April 9, 2025.
For the Nuclear Regulatory Commission.
