SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

I. Introduction

    The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC or the Commission) has

the fuel stored and only that equipment necessary for its safe storage. 
The major changes include revisions to information regarding the spent 
fuel inventory, deletion of the requirement for ventilation exhaust 
vacuum, deletion of the requirement to have certain instrumentation 
operative for equipment that is no longer in service, a change in the 
methods to verify pool water quality, revision to the description of

Atomic Energy Act of 1954, as amended (the Act), and the Commission's 
rules and regulations. The Commission has made appropriate findings as 
required by the Act and the Commission's rules and regulations in 10 
CFR Chapter I, which are set forth in the license amendment. This 
amendment satisfied the criteria specified in 10 CFR 51.22(c)(11) for a 
categorical exclusion from the requirements to perform an environmental 
assessment or to prepare an environmental impact statement.

IV. Hearing

    In accordance with 10 CFR 72.46(b)(2), a determination has been 
made that the amendment does not present a genuine issue as to whether 
public health and safety will be significantly affected. Therefore, the 
publication of a notice of proposed action and an opportunity for 
hearing or a notice of hearing is not warranted. Notice is hereby given 
of the right of interested persons to request a hearing on whether the 
action should be rescinded or modified.
