SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: By application dated July 26, 2019 (ADAMS Accession No. ML19210D273), as supplemented April 29, 2020 and June 10, 2020 (ADAMS Accession Nos. ML20120A625 and ML20162A445 respectively), NSPM submitted to the NRC, in accordance with part 72 of title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR), a request to amend Special Nuclear Materials License No. SNM– 2506 for its PI ISFSI site located in Welch, Minnesota. License No. SNM– 2506 authorizes NSPM to receive, VerDate Sep<11>2014 18:16 Nov 03, 2020 Jkt 253001 possess, store, and transfer spent nuclear fuel and associated radioactive materials resulting from the operation of the PI Power Plant in an ISFSI at the power plant site for a term of 20 years. Specifically, the amendment proposed to increase the storage capacity of the PI ISFSI and to approve the design of a new storage pad to be built at the existing facility. The NRC issued a letter dated October 28, 2019 (ADAMS Accession No. ML19301D285), notifying NSPM that the application was acceptable for review. In accordance with 10 CFR 72.16, a notice of docketing was published in the Federal Register on December 16, 2019 (84 FR 68491). The notice of docketing included an opportunity to request a hearing and to petition for leave to intervene. No requests for a hearing or petitions for leave to intervene were submitted. The NRC prepared a safety evaluation report (ADAMS Accession No. ML20237F368) to document its review and evaluation of the amendment request. Also, in connection with this action, the NRC prepared an environmental assessment (EA) and a finding of no significant impact (FONSI). The notice of availability of the EA and FONSI for the PI ISFSI was published in the Federal Register on October 8, 2020 (85 FR 63588). Upon completing its review, the NRC staff determined that the request complies with the standards and requirements of the Atomic Energy Act of 1954, as amended (the Act), as well as the NRC’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. The NRC approved and issued Amendment No. 11 to Special Nuclear Materials License No. SNM–2506, held by NSPM for the receipt, possession, transfer, and storage of spent fuel and associated radioactive materials at the PI ISFSI. Pursuant to 10 CFR 72.46(d), the NRC is providing notice of the action taken. Amendment No. 11 was effective as of the date of issuance. Dated October 30, 2020. For the Nuclear Regulatory Commission. John B. McKirgan, Chief, Storage and Transportation Licensing Branch, Division of Fuel Management, Office of Nuclear Material Safety and Safeguards.
