NUCLEAR REGULATORY
COMMISSION
[Docket No. 72–7]
Nuclear Management Company;
Palisades Independent Spent Fuel
Storage Installation; Environmental
Assessment and Finding of No
Significant Impact
The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory
Commission (NRC or Commission) is
considering issuance of an exemption to
Nuclear Management Company, LLC
(NMC or licensee), pursuant to 10 CFR
72.7, from specific provisions of 10 CFR
72.212(a)(2), 72.212(b)(2)(i)(A),
72.212(b)(7), and 72.214. The licensee
wants to use the Transnuclear, Inc. (TN)
NUHOMS Storage System, Certificate of
Compliance No. 1004 (CoC or
Certificate) Amendment No. 8 (32PT dry
shielded canister (DSC)) to store spent
nuclear fuel under a general license in
an Independent Spent Fuel Storage
Installation (ISFSI) associated with the
operation of the Palisades Nuclear Plant
(PNP), located in Van Buren County,
Michigan. The requested exemption
would allow NMC to store fuel in the
TN NUHOMS–32PT system using
revised fuel specifications and fuel
qualification tables prior to completion
of the proposed TN NUHOMS CoC
Amendment No. 8 rulemaking.
Identification of Proposed
AGENCY:

Permit Officer.

Environmental Assessment (EA)
Notice of Permits Issued Under the
Antarctic Conservation Act of 1978
VerDate Aug<31>2005
Federal Register of permit applications
received. A permit was issued on
September 20, 2005 to: Sarah Andrews,
Permit No. 2006–018.
The proposed action would exempt
NMC from the requirements of 10 CFR
72.212(a)(2), 72.212(b)(2)(i)(A),
72.212(b)(7), and 72.214 and enable
NMC to use the TN NUHOMS–32PT
cask design as amended by proposed TN
NUHOMS CoC No. 1004, Amendment
No. 8 at PNP. These regulations
specifically require storage in casks
approved under the provisions of 10
CFR Part 72 and compliance with the
conditions set forth in the CoC for each
dry spent fuel storage cask used by an
ISFSI general licensee. The TN
NUHOMS CoC provides requirements,
conditions, and operating limits in
Attachment A, Technical Specifications.
The proposed action would exempt
NMC from the requirements of 10 CFR
PO 00000
Frm 00057
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
72.212(a)(2) and 72.214 enabling the
licensee to store fuel in the TN
NUHOMS–32PT DSC system prior to
the effective date of the final rule
change for the Amendment No. 8
approving the issuance of this amended
CoC. The proposed action would also
exempt NMC from the requirements of
10 CFR 72.212(b)(2)(i)(A) and
72.212(b)(7) to allow the use of revised
fuel specification and fuel qualification
tables in the proposed CoC for
Amendment No. 8. Specifically, the
exemption would be from the
requirement that does not include
provisions for the loading of low
enrichment/high burnup fuel,
assemblies with stainless steel plugging
clusters, and reconstituted fuel into the
NUHOMS–32PT storage system. NMC
requested that the exemptions remain in
effect for 90 days following the effective
date of the final rule change to 10 CFR
72.214 to incorporate TN CoC No. 1004,
Amendment No. 8. The proposed action
would allow NMC to use the 32PT
system as described in the proposed TN
NUHOMS CoC Amendment No. 8
requests currently under staff review.
The proposed action is in accordance
with the licensee’s request for
exemption dated August 22, 2005, as
supplemented on September 20, 2005,
Need for the Proposed Action
The proposed action is needed
because NMC plans to initiate the
transfer of the PNP spent fuel pool
contents to the ISFSI in October 2005.
The NMC transfer campaign includes
loading fuel assemblies with low
enrichment/high burnup, assemblies
with stainless steel plugging clusters,
and reconstituted fuel from the spent
fuel pool into the 32PT DSC. Loading of
these types of fuel assemblies would not
be permitted based on the current TS for
the NUHOMS–32PT storage system.
The proposed Amendment No. 8 to CoC
No. 1004, as transmitted by TN in a
letter dated, June 10, 2005, includes
proposed changes to TS 1.2.1, ‘‘Fuel
Specifications.’’ The proposed TS
changes contain provisions for low
enrichment/high burnup fuel,
assemblies with stainless steel plugging
clusters, and reconstituted fuel to be
loaded into the NUHOMS–32PT DSC.
The proposed action is necessary
because the 10 CFR 72.214 rulemaking
to implement the TN NUHOMS CoC
Amendment No. 8 is not projected for
completion until late Fall 2005, which
will not support the PNP fuel transfer
and dry cask storage loading schedule.
