SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On August 13, 2004 (69 FR 50053), the NRC 
published a direct final rule amending its regulations in 10 CFR part 
72 to revise the NAC-MPC cask system listing within the ``List of 
Approved Spent Fuel Storage Casks'' to include Amendment No. 4 to CoC 
No. 1025. This amendment increases vacuum drying time limits, deletes 
canister removal from concrete cask requirements, revises surface 
contamination removal time limits, and revises allowable contents fuel 
assembly limits. In the direct final rule, NRC stated that if no 
significant adverse comments were received, the direct final rule would 
become final on October 27, 2004. The NRC did not receive any comments 
that warranted withdrawal of the direct final rule. Therefore, this 
rule will become effective as scheduled.

    Dated at Rockville, Maryland, this 14th day of October, 2004.

    For the Nuclear Regulatory Commission.
Michael T. Lesar,
Chief, Rules and Directives Branch, Division of Administrative 
Services, Office of Administration.
