STORM F/W MPC Canister System
FSAR clearly identifies the purpose of
the MPC leak detection requirement as
a post fabrication certification test that
is only required to be performed one
time.
(11) Assumption of No Fuel Cladding
Degradation After Dry Storage Is Not
Substantiated
Some commenters raised an issue
with Holtec’s claim that there is no
credible mechanism for gross fuel
cladding degradation of fuel classified
as undamaged during storage in the HI–
STORM UMAX Canister Storage
System.
NRC Response
These comments are outside the scope
of this rulemaking because they are not
specific to the amendment at issue in
the rule. Instead, these comments raise
issues that would be addressed during
any renewal application review. The
NRC has determined that fuel cladding
degradation is not an issue during the
initial 20-year certification period, but
instead, is an issue that would have to
be addressed if a CoC holder requested
renewal of the CoC for a period beyond
the initial 20 years. If a renewal
application is filed, NRC regulations
require that the application include
programs to manage the effects of aging,
including necessary monitoring and
inspection programs. Those programs
would have to be reviewed and
determined acceptable by the NRC
before any CoC renewal is approved.
(12) Vertical Ventilated Module Needs
Substantiation for Expected Lifespan
Commenters questioned Holtec’s
claims of a design life of 60 years, a
service life of 100 years and a licensed
life of 40 years. Since no substantiation
was provided for these claims, the
commenters requested the claims be
removed from the FSAR.

NRC Response
This issue is outside of the scope of
this rulemaking because the term of a
certificate is determined in the original
certification, not in amendments to that
certification. This rulemaking seeks to
add Amendment No. 1 to CoC No. 1040.
In this case, the UMAX CoC was
approved on March 6, 2015 (80 FR
12073), for an initial 20-year term. This
20-year term will also apply to
Amendment No. 1. Use of this system
beyond the expiration date of 20 years
would require an evaluation of a
renewal application for this CoC which
would be addressed in a subsequent
rulemaking process.

(13) Concrete Inspection and Inspection
Limitations
Some commenters questioned
whether the HI–STORM UMAX Canister
Storage System design provided a safe
and accessible method to perform
inspections within the license period
given that high seismic risk areas are
more likely to cause cracking or other
structural changes, and indicated that
such an evaluation should be part of the
NRC’s review process.
NRC Response
This comment is outside the scope of
this rulemaking because it is not
specific to the amendment at issue in
the rule, but instead raises concerns
with the general 10 CFR part 72
requirements and process for
certification of CoC systems. The NRC
has determined that concrete
degradation is not an issue requiring
inspection during the initial 20-year
certification period, but instead, is an
issue that would have to be addressed
if a CoC holder requested renewal of the
CoC for a period beyond the initial 20
years. If a renewal application is filed,
NRC regulations require that the
application include programs to manage
the effects of aging, including necessary
monitoring and inspection programs.
Those programs would have to be
reviewed and determined acceptable by
the NRC before any CoC renewal is
approved.
storage of HBF beyond the initial term
of 20 years, the comments are also
outside the scope of this rulemaking. A
request to store HBF beyond the initial
20 years provided in the certification of
this system will require the applicant to
submit a license renewal application
with the inclusion of Aging
Management Programs addressing HBF.
In that regard, a demonstration project
is being planned by the U.S. Department
of Energy to provide confirmatory data
on the performance of HBF in DCS. The
NRC plans to evaluate the data obtained
from the project to confirm the accuracy
of current models that are relied upon
for authorizing the storage of HBF for
extended storage periods beyond the
initial 20-year certification term.
The NRC staff has concluded that the
comments received on the companion
proposed rule for the Holtec HI–STORM
UMAX Canister Storage System, CoC
No. 1040, Amendment No. 1, are not
significant adverse comments as defined
in NUREG/BR–0053, Revision 6,
‘‘United States Nuclear Regulatory
Commission Regulations Handbook.’’
Therefore, this rule will become
effective as scheduled.
Dated at Rockville, Maryland, this 1st day
of September, 2015.

(14) High Burnup Fuel
Commenters also raised questions
regarding the long-term acceptability of
the extended storage of high burnup fuel
(HBF).
[FR Doc. 2015–22053 Filed 9–4–15; 8:45 am]
NRC Response
To the extent these comments raise
issues about the storage of HBF in the
CoC for the first 20 years, these
comments are outside the scope of this
rulemaking. The NRC has evaluated the
acceptability of storage of HBF for the
initial 20-year certification term for the
HI–STORM UMAX Canister Storage
System during its review of the initial
certificate. As documented in the NRC
staff’s SER under Docket ID NRC–2014–
0120, the NRC staff has determined that
the use of the HI–STORM UMAX
Canister Storage System, including
storage of HBF, will be conducted in
compliance with the applicable
regulations of 10 CFR part 72, and the
CoC should be approved for the initial
20-year term. This amendment does not
impact the analysis conducted by the
NRC staff during the initial certification
of this system.

comments raise concerns regarding the

Miscellaneous Amendments
Federal Aviation
Administration (FAA), DOT.
ACTION: Final rule.
AGENCY:
This rule establishes, amends,
suspends, or removes Standard
Instrument Approach Procedures
(SIAPs) and associated Takeoff
Minimums and Obstacle Departure
Procedures (ODPs) for operations at
certain airports. These regulatory
actions are needed because of the
adoption of new or revised criteria, or
because of changes occurring in the
National Airspace System, such as the

facilities, adding new obstacles, or
changing air traffic requirements. These
changes are designed to provide safe
and efficient use of the navigable
airspace and to promote safe flight
operations under instrument flight rules
at the affected airports.
DATES: This rule is effective September
8, 2015. The compliance date for each
SIAP, associated Takeoff Minimums,
and ODP is specified in the amendatory
provisions.
The incorporation by reference of
certain publications listed in the

and/or ODPS. The complete regulatory
description of each SIAP and its
associated Takeoff Minimums or ODP
for an identified airport is listed on FAA
form documents which are incorporated
by reference in this amendment under 5
U.S.C. 552(a), 1 CFR part 51, and 14
CFR part § 97.20. The applicable FAA
forms are FAA Forms 8260–3, 8260–4,
8260–5, 8260–15A, and 8260–15B when
required by an entry on 8260–15A.
The large number of SIAPs, Takeoff
Minimums and ODPs, their complex
nature, and the need for a special format
make publication in the Federal
Register expensive and impractical.
Further, airmen do not use the
regulatory text of the SIAPs, Takeoff
Minimums or ODPs, but instead refer to
their graphic depiction on charts
printed by publishers of aeronautical
materials. Thus, the advantages of
incorporation by reference are realized
and publication of the complete
description of each SIAP, Takeoff
Minimums and ODP listed on FAA form
documents is unnecessary. This
amendment provides the affected CFR
and specifies the types of SIAPs, Takeoff
Minimums and ODPs with their
applicable effective dates. This
amendment also identifies the airport
and its location, the procedure, and the
amendment number.
Availability and Summary of Material
Incorporated by Reference
The material incorporated by
reference is publicly available as listed
in the ADDRESSES section.
The material incorporated by
reference describes SIAPS, Takeoff
Minimums and/or ODPS as identified in
the amendatory language for part 97 of
this final rule.
The Rule
This amendment to 14 CFR part 97 is
effective upon publication of each
separate SIAP, Takeoff Minimums and
ODP as Amended in the transmittal.
Some SIAP and Takeoff Minimums and
textual ODP amendments may have
been issued previously by the FAA in a
Flight Data Center (FDC) Notice to
Airmen (NOTAM) as an emergency
action of immediate flight safety relating
directly to published aeronautical
charts.
The circumstances that created the
need for some SIAP and Takeoff
Minimums and ODP amendments may
require making them effective in less
than 30 days. For the remaining SIAPs
and Takeoff Minimums and ODPs, an
effective date at least 30 days after
publication is provided.
Further, the SIAPs and Takeoff
Minimums and ODPs contained in this
PO 00000
Frm 00005
Fmt 4700
Sfmt 4700
53695
amendment are based on the criteria
contained in the U.S. Standard for
Terminal Instrument Procedures
(TERPS). In developing these SIAPs and
Takeoff Minimums and ODPs, the
TERPS criteria were applied to the
conditions existing or anticipated at the
affected airports. Because of the close
and immediate relationship between
these SIAPs, Takeoff Minimums and
ODPs, and safety in air commerce, I find
that notice and public procedure under
5 U.S.C. 553(b) are impracticable and
contrary to the public interest and,
where applicable, under 5 U.S.C. 553(d),
good cause exists for making some
SIAPs effective in less than 30 days.
The FAA has determined that this
regulation only involves an established
body of technical regulations for which
frequent and routine amendments are
necessary to keep them operationally
current. It, therefore—(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. For the same
reason, the FAA certifies that this
amendment will not have a significant
economic impact on a substantial
number of small entities under the
criteria of the Regulatory Flexibility Act.

types of SIAPs, Takeoff Minimums and ODPs with their applicable
effective dates. This amendment also identifies the airport and its
location, the procedure, and the amendment number.
Availability and Summary of Material Incorporated by Reference
The material incorporated by reference is publicly available as
listed in the ADDRESSES section.
The material incorporated by reference describes SIAPS, Takeoff
Minimums and/or ODPS as identified in the amendatory language for part
97 of this final rule.
The Rule
This amendment to 14 CFR part 97 is effective upon publication of
each separate SIAP, Takeoff Minimums and ODP as Amended in the
transmittal. Some SIAP and Takeoff Minimums and textual ODP amendments
may have been issued previously by the FAA in a Flight Data Center
(FDC) Notice to Airmen (NOTAM) as an emergency action of immediate
flight safety relating directly to published aeronautical charts.
The circumstances that created the need for some SIAP and Takeoff
Minimums and ODP amendments may require making them effective in less
than 30 days. For the remaining SIAPs and Takeoff Minimums and ODPs, an
effective date at least 30 days after publication is provided.
Further, the SIAPs and Takeoff Minimums and ODPs contained in this
amendment are based on the criteria contained in the U.S. Standard for
Terminal Instrument Procedures (TERPS). In developing these SIAPs and
Takeoff Minimums and ODPs, the TERPS criteria were applied to the
conditions existing or anticipated at the affected airports. Because of
the close and immediate relationship between these SIAPs, Takeoff
Minimums and ODPs, and safety in air commerce, I find that notice and
public procedure under 5 U.S.C. 553(b) are impracticable and contrary
to the public interest and, where applicable, under 5 U.S.C. 553(d),
good cause exists for making some SIAPs effective in less than 30 days.
The FAA has determined that this regulation only involves an
established body of technical regulations for which frequent and
routine amendments are necessary to keep them operationally current.
It, therefore--(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. For the same reason, the FAA
certifies that this amendment will not have a significant economic
impact on a substantial number of small entities under the criteria of
the Regulatory Flexibility Act.
