NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION

[Docket No. 72-3]


Notice of Issuance of Amendment to Materials License No. SNM-
2502, Carolina Power & Light Company; Independent Spent Fuel Storage 
Installation

    The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC or the Commission) has 
issued Amendment No. 12 to Materials License SNM-2502 held by Carolina 
Power & Light Company (CP&L) for the receipt, possession, transfer, and 
storage of spent fuel at the H. B. Robinson Independent Spent Fuel 
Storage Installation (ISFSI), located on the H. B. Robinson Steam 
Electric Plant Unit 2 site, Darlington County, South Carolina. The 
amendment is effective as of the date of issuance.
    By application dated August 28, 2000, CP&L requested an amendment 
to Materials License SNM-2502 for the H.B. Robinson ISFSI. CP&L is 
seeking Commission approval to amend the materials license safeguards 
license condition and the Technical Specifications to reflect that the 
Industrial Security Plan and Safeguards Contingency Plan are combined 
into the Physical Security and Safeguards Contingency Plan. The 
revision would also clarify the text to indicate that the Training and 
Qualification Plan no longer contains safeguards information. Such an 
action would only change the reference to and the location of the 
Industrial Security Plan and the Safeguards Contingency Plan. The 
requested change does not affect the design, operation, maintenance, or 
surveillance of the ISFSI.
    This amendment complies with the requirements of the 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.
    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action should be rescinded or modified.
    The Commission has determined that the issuance of the amendment 
meets the criteria for a categorical exclusion set forth in 10 CFR 
51.22(c)(10) of the regulations. Therefore, an environmental assessment 
need not be prepared in connection with issuance of the amendment.
    Documents related to this action are available for public 
inspection at the Commission's Public Document Room located at the One 
White Flint Building, 11555 Rockville Pike, Rockville, Maryland, or 
from the publicly available records component of NRC's document system 
(ADAMS). ADAMS is accessible from the NRC Web site at http://www.nrc.gov/NRC/ADAMS/index.html (the Public Electronic Reading Room).

    Dated at Rockville, Maryland, this 6th day of November 2000.

For the Nuclear Regulatory Commission.
E. William Brach,
Director, Spent Fuel Project Office, Office of Nuclear Material Safety 
and Safeguards.
