53694 Federal Register / Vol. 80, No. 173 / Tuesday, September 8, 2015 / Rules and Regulations 

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. 

(14) High Burnup Fuel 

Commenters also raised questions 

regarding the long-term acceptability of 

the extended storage of high burnup fuel 

(HBF). 

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. 

Additionally, to the extent these 

comments raise concerns regarding the 

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 CFR Part 97 

[Docket No. 31033; Amdt. No. 3657] 

Standard Instrument Approach 

Procedures, and Takeoff Minimums 

and Obstacle Departure Procedures; 

Miscellaneous Amendments 

AGENCY: Federal Aviation 

Administration (FAA), DOT. 

ACTION: Final rule. 

SUMMARY: 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 


rmajette on DSK7SPTVN1PROD with RULES
Federal Register / Vol. 80, No. 173 / Tuesday, September 8, 2015 / Rules and Regulations 53695 

commissioning of new navigational 

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 

regulations is approved by the Director 

of the Federal Register as of September 

8, 2015.

Telephone: (405) 954–4164. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This rule 

amends Title 14 of the Code of Federal 

Regulations, Part 97 (14 CFR part 97), by 

establishing, amending, suspending, or 

removes SIAPS, Takeoff Minimums 

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 

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.
