VerDate Mar<15>2010 [Amended] Jkt 229001 SUMMARY: On February 17, 2012 (77 FR 9515), the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) published a direct final rule amending its spent fuel storage regulations by revising the PO 00000 Frm 00001 Fmt 4700 Sfmt 4700 Holtec International, Inc. (Holtec) HISTORM 100 Cask System listing within the ‘‘List of Approved Spent Fuel Storage Casks’’ to include Amendment No. 8 to Certificate of Compliance (CoC) No. 1014. The direct final rule was effective on May 2, 2012 (77 FR 24585; April 25, 2012). The NRC has made nonsubstantive corrections to the technical specifications (TS) and the NRC’s Safety Evaluation Report (SER) for the Holtec HI-STORM 100 Cask System, Amendment No. 8. The purpose of this document is to provide notification that the NRC is amending its regulations by revising the Holtec HI-STORM 100 Cask System listing within the ‘‘List of Approved Spent Fuel Storage Casks’’ to include notification that Amendment No. 8 to CoC No. 1014 was corrected on November 16, 2012.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: John Goshen, P.E., Office of Nuclear Material Safety and Safeguards, U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission, Washington, DC 20555–0001; telephone: 301–492– 3325, email: John.Goshen@nrc.gov. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: I. Background On May 17, 2012, the NRC received a request from Holtec by electronic mail to correct minor and non-substantive errors in Appendix A, ‘‘Technical Specifications for the HI-STORM 100 Cask System,’’ and Appendix B, ‘‘Approved Contents and Design Features for the HI-STORM 100 Cask System,’’ of CoC No. 1014. Holtec also identified errors in the NRC staff’s SER. Holtec’s requested corrections to the affected documents are to ensure consistency with the analyses and Final Safety Analysis Report (FSAR). The NRC has determined that the proposed TS and SER changes are being made to correct multiple revision bars in Appendices A and B of the TSs, and correcting several values in the NRC staff’s SER that were previously approved by the NRC as part of the Holtect HI-STORM 100 Cask System rulemaking package approving Amendment No. 8 (77 FR 24585; April 25, 2012). The NRC staff inadvertently introduced the errors in the SER narrative. In some instances the NRC staff incorrectly referenced values or other references from the FSAR that had limited bearing on the staff’s evaluation and did not affect the staff’s conclusions because when the staff performed its evaluation and confirmatory conclusions the correct values were used. In some instances, typographical errors were made in the final document. In several instances language was revised to provide additional clarity. The NRC corrected the TSs and SER on November 16, 2012 (ADAMS Accession No. ML12213A170). wreier-aviles on DSK5TPTVN1PROD with RULES II. Section-by-Section Analysis 10 CFR 72.214 The effective date for Amendment No. 8 to CoC No. 1014 is revised to include notification that Amendment No. 8 was corrected on November 16, 2012 (ADAMS Accession No. ML12213A170). III. Rulemaking Procedure Under the Administrative Procedure Act (5 U.S.C. 553(b)), an agency may waive the normal notice and comments requirements if it finds, for good cause, that they are impracticable, unnecessary, or contrary to the public VerDate Mar<15>2010 15:24 Apr 15, 2013 Jkt 229001 interest because it will have no substantive impact, are technical in nature, and relate only to management, organization, procedure, and practice. The Commission is exercising its authority under 5 U.S.C. 553(b)(3)(B) to publish this amendment as a final rule. The amendment is effective May 16, 2013. This amendment does not require action by any person or entity regulated by the NRC. Also, the final rule does not change the substantive responsibilities of any person or entity regulated by the NRC. As authorized by 5 U.S.C. 553(b)(3)(B), the NRC finds good cause to waive notice and opportunity for comment on the revision previously stated because the revision is administrative in nature and does not change substantive requirements under the regulations. Specifically, the NRC is revising the Holtec HI-STORM 100 Cask System listing within the ‘‘List of Approved Spent Fuel Storage Casks’’ to include notification that Amendment No. 8 to CoC No. 1014 was corrected on November 16, 2012 (ADAMS Accession No. ML12213A170). IV. Environmental Impact: Categorical Exclusion The NRC has determined that this final rule is the type of action described in categorical exclusion 10 CFR 51.22(c)(2), which excludes from a major action rules which are corrective or of minor nonpolicy nature and do not substantially modify existing regulations. Therefore, neither an environmental impact statement nor an environmental assessment has been prepared for this rule. V. Paperwork Reduction Act Statement This final rule does not contain information collection requirements and, therefore, is not subject to the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.). Public Protection Notification The NRC may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required to respond to, a request for information or an information collection requirement unless the requesting document displays a currently valid Office of Management and Budget control number. VI. Plain Writing The Plain Writing Act of 2010 (Pub. L. 111–274) requires Federal agencies to write documents in a clear, concise, and well-organized manner. The NRC has written this document to be consistent with the Plain Writing Act as well as the Presidential Memorandum, ‘‘Plain PO 00000 Frm 00002 Fmt 4700 Sfmt 4700 Language in Government Writing,’’ published June 10, 1998 (63 FR 31883). VII. Backfitting and Issue Finality The NRC has determined that the non-substantive change in this final rule does not constitute backfitting, and therefore a backfit analysis is not included. The revision is nonsubstantive in nature: revising the Holtec HI-STORM 100 Cask System listing within the ‘‘List of Approved Spent Fuel Storage Casks’’ to include notification that Amendment No. 8 to CoC No. 1014 was corrected on November 16, 2012 (ADAMS Accession No. ML12213A170). The change imposes no new requirements and makes no substantive change to the regulations. The revision does not involve any provisions that would impose backfits as defined in 10 CFR chapter I, or would be inconsistent with the issue finality provisions in 10 CFR part 52. For these reasons, the issuance of the rule in final form would not constitute backfitting. Therefore, a backfit analysis was not prepared.

The Omak NDB navigation aid is being decommissioned and, therefore, removed from the legal description. The size and shape of the airspace will remain the same by using the Airport Reference Point in describing the airspace. This action is necessary for the safety and management of IFR operations. The FAA has determined this regulation only involves an established body of technical regulations for which frequent and routine amendments are necessary to keep them operationally current. Therefore, this regulation: (1) Is not a ‘‘significant regulatory action’’ under Executive Order 12866; (2) is not a ‘‘significant rule’’ under DOT Regulatory Policies and Procedures (44 FR 11034; February 26, 1979); and (3) does not warrant preparation of a regulatory evaluation as the anticipated impact is so minimal. Since this is a routine matter that will only affect air traffic procedures and air navigation, it is certified this rule, when promulgated, will not have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities under the criteria of the Regulatory Flexibility Act. The FAA’s authority to issue rules regarding aviation safety is found in Title 49 of the U.S. Code. Subtitle 1, Section 106 discusses the authority of the FAA Administrator. Subtitle VII, Aviation Programs, describes in more detail the scope of the agency’s authority. This rulemaking is promulgated under the authority described in Subtitle VII, Part A, Subpart I, Section 40103. Under that section, the FAA is charged with prescribing regulations to assign the use of airspace necessary to ensure the safety of aircraft and the efficient use of airspace. This regulation is within the scope of that authority as it establishes additional controlled airspace at Omak Airport, Omak, WA. 14 CFR Part 71 [Docket No. FAA–2012–1247; Airspace Docket No. 12–ANM–27] Amendment of Class E Airspace; Omak, WA Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT. ACTION: Final rule. AGENCY: SUMMARY: This action amends Class E airspace at Omak Airport, Omak, WA. Decommissioning of the Nondirectional Radio Beacon (NDB) has made this action necessary. This action also makes a minor change to the legal description in reference to the Class E airspace extending upward from 4,500 feet Mean Sea Level (MSL). This improves the safety and management of Instrument Flight Rules (IFR) operations at the airport. DATES: Effective date, 0901 UTC, June 27, 2013.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: History On January 24, 2013, the FAA published in the Federal Register a notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM) to amend controlled airspace at Omak, WA (78 FR 5151). Interested parties were invited to participate in this rulemaking effort by submitting written comments on the proposal to the FAA. No comments were received. The FAA’s Aeronautical Products Office requested the legal description for the Class E airspace extending upward from 4,500 feet MSL be rewritten for clarity.

List of Approved Spent Fuel Storage Casks: HI-STORM 100, 
Amendment No. 8; Corrections

AGENCY: Nuclear Regulatory Commission.

ACTION: Final rule; correcting amendments.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: On February 17, 2012 (77 FR 9515), the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory 
Commission (NRC) published a direct final rule amending its spent fuel 
storage regulations by revising the Holtec International, Inc. (Holtec) 
HI-STORM 100 Cask System listing within the ``List of Approved Spent 
Fuel Storage Casks'' to include Amendment No. 8 to Certificate of 
Compliance (CoC) No. 1014. The direct final rule was effective on May 
2, 2012 (77 FR 24585; April 25, 2012). The NRC has made non-substantive 
corrections to the technical specifications (TS) and the NRC's Safety 
Evaluation Report (SER) for the Holtec HI-STORM 100 Cask System, 
Amendment No. 8. The purpose of this document is to provide 
notification that the NRC is amending its regulations by revising the 
Holtec HI-STORM 100 Cask System listing within the ``List of Approved 
Spent Fuel Storage Casks'' to include notification that Amendment No. 8 
to CoC No. 1014 was corrected on November 16, 2012.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Background

    On May 17, 2012, the NRC received a request from Holtec by 
electronic mail to correct minor and non-substantive errors in Appendix 
A, ``Technical Specifications for the HI-STORM 100 Cask System,'' and 
Appendix B, ``Approved Contents and Design Features for the HI-STORM 
100 Cask System,'' of CoC No. 1014. Holtec also identified errors in 
the NRC staff's SER. Holtec's requested corrections to the affected 
documents are to ensure consistency with the analyses and Final Safety 
Analysis Report (FSAR). The NRC has determined that the proposed TS and 
SER changes are being made to correct multiple revision bars in 
Appendices A and B of the TSs, and correcting several values in the NRC 
staff's SER that were previously approved by the NRC as part of the 
Holtect HI-STORM 100 Cask System rulemaking package approving Amendment 
No. 8 (77 FR 24585; April 25, 2012). The NRC staff inadvertently 
introduced the errors in the SER narrative. In some instances the NRC 
staff incorrectly referenced values or other references from the FSAR 
that had limited bearing on the staff's evaluation and did not affect 
the staff's conclusions because when the staff performed its evaluation 
and confirmatory conclusions the correct values were used. In some 
instances, typographical errors were made in the final document. In 
several instances language was revised to provide additional clarity. 
The NRC corrected the TSs and SER on November 16, 2012 (ADAMS Accession 
No. ML12213A170).

II. Section-by-Section Analysis

10 CFR 72.214

    The effective date for Amendment No. 8 to CoC No. 1014 is revised 
to include notification that Amendment No. 8 was corrected on November 
16, 2012 (ADAMS Accession No. ML12213A170).

III. Rulemaking Procedure

    Under the Administrative Procedure Act (5 U.S.C. 553(b)), an agency 
may waive the normal notice and comments requirements if it finds, for 
good cause, that they are impracticable, unnecessary, or contrary to 
the public interest because it will have no substantive impact, are 
technical in nature, and relate only to management, organization, 
procedure, and practice. The Commission is exercising its authority 
under 5 U.S.C. 553(b)(3)(B) to publish this amendment as a final rule. 
The amendment is effective May 16, 2013. This amendment does not 
require action by any person or entity regulated by the NRC. Also, the 
final rule does not change the substantive responsibilities of any 
person or entity regulated by the NRC.
    As authorized by 5 U.S.C. 553(b)(3)(B), the NRC finds good cause to 
waive notice and opportunity for comment on the revision previously 
stated because the revision is administrative in nature and does not 
change substantive requirements under the regulations. Specifically, 
the NRC is revising the Holtec HI-STORM 100 Cask System listing within 
the ``List of Approved Spent Fuel Storage Casks'' to include 
notification that Amendment No. 8 to CoC No. 1014 was corrected on 
November 16, 2012 (ADAMS Accession No. ML12213A170).

IV. Environmental Impact: Categorical Exclusion

    The NRC has determined that this final rule is the type of action 
described in categorical exclusion 10 CFR 51.22(c)(2), which excludes 
from a major action rules which are corrective or of minor nonpolicy 
nature and do not substantially modify existing regulations. Therefore, 
neither an environmental impact statement nor an environmental 
assessment has been prepared for this rule.

V. Paperwork Reduction Act Statement

    This final rule does not contain information collection 
requirements and, therefore, is not subject to the Paperwork Reduction 
Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.).

Public Protection Notification

    The NRC may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required to 
respond to, a request for information or an information collection 
requirement unless the requesting document displays a currently valid 
Office of Management and Budget control number.

VI. Plain Writing

    The Plain Writing Act of 2010 (Pub. L. 111-274) requires Federal 
agencies to write documents in a clear, concise, and well-organized 
manner. The NRC has written this document to be consistent with the 
Plain Writing Act as well as the Presidential Memorandum, ``Plain 
Language in Government Writing,'' published June 10, 1998 (63 FR 
31883).

VII. Backfitting and Issue Finality

    The NRC has determined that the non-substantive change in this 
final rule does not constitute backfitting, and therefore a backfit 
analysis is not included. The revision is non-substantive in nature: 
revising the Holtec HI-STORM 100 Cask System listing within the ``List 
of Approved Spent Fuel Storage Casks'' to include notification that 
Amendment No. 8 to CoC No. 1014 was corrected on November 16, 2012 
(ADAMS Accession No. ML12213A170). The change imposes no new 
requirements and makes no substantive change to the regulations. The 
revision does not involve any provisions that would impose backfits as 
defined in 10 CFR chapter I, or would be inconsistent with the issue 
finality provisions in 10 CFR part 52. For these reasons, the issuance 
of the rule in final form would not constitute backfitting. Therefore, 
a backfit analysis was not prepared.
