NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION
[Docket No. 72-8]
Notice of Issuance of Amendment to Materials License SNM-2505,
Calvert Cliffs Nuclear Power Plant Independent Spent Fuel Storage
Installation
The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC or the Commission) has
issued Amendment No. 5 to Materials License No. SNM-2505 held by
Calvert Cliffs Nuclear Power Plant (CCNPP) for the receipt, possession,
storage, and transfer of spent fuel at the Calvert Cliffs independent
spent fuel storage installation (ISFSI), located in Calvert County,
Maryland. The amendment is effective as of the date of issuance.
By application dated July 26, 2001, CCNPP requested an amendment to
its ISFSI license to revise Technical Specifications 2.3 to remove the
transfer cask drop height limit and Technical Specification 6.3 to
revise the semi-annual environmental reporting period to be consistent
with the annual reporting requirements of 10 CFR 50.36a(2). This
amendment complies with the standards and 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action should be rescinded or modified.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, pursuant to the categorical
exclusion provisions of 10 CFR 51.22(c)(10), an environmental
assessment need not be prepared in connection with issuance of the
amendment.
The NRC maintains an Agencywide Documents Access and Management
System (ADAMS), which provides text and image files of NRC's public
documents. These documents may be accessed through NRC's Public
Electronic Reading Room on the Internet at http://www.nrc.gov/nrc/adams/index.html. If you do not have access to ADAMS or if there are
problems in accessing documents located in ADAMS, contact the NRC
Public Document Room Reference staff at 1-800-397-4209, 301-415-4737,
or by e-mail to [email protected].
Dated at Rockville, Maryland, this 25th day of October 2001.
For the Nuclear Regulatory Commission.
E. William Brach,
Director, Spent Fuel Project Office, Office of Nuclear Material Safety
and Safeguards.
