SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Background 

The NRC considers Advanced 

Manufacturing Technologies (AMTs) to 

consist of material processing and 

component fabrication methods that 

have not been traditionally used in the 

U.S. nuclear industry and have not yet 

received NRC approval through NRCendorsed codes and standards or the 

approval of an industry submittal. There 

are several regulatory paths available to 

a licensee for utilizing an AMT in a 

nuclear application, including: (1) 

Development of a code or standard that 

can be incorporated by reference in 

§ 50.55a of chapter I of title 10 of the 

Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR); 

(2) selection of an unregulated in service 

application; (3) submission of generic 

technical reports or plant-specific 

submittals for NRC approval; or (4) 

implementation of the 10 CFR 50.59, 

‘‘Changes, tests and experiments,’’ 10 

CFR 70.72, ‘‘Facility changes and 

change process,’’ or 10 CFR 72.48, 

‘‘Changes, tests, and experiments’’ 

processes. The document addresses the 

processes, consistent with the QA 

requirements in appendix B to 10 CFR 

part 50 and in accordance with 10 CFR 

50.59, in order to support the staff’s 

performance of potential inspections of 

a licensee’s implementation of these 

requirements for AMT-fabricated 

components. 

II. Congressional Review Act 

This action is a rule as defined in the 

Congressional Review Act (5 

U.S.C. 801–808). However, the Office of 

Management and Budget has not found 

it to be a major rule as defined in the 

Congressional Review Act. 

III. Implementation 

The staff has added Appendix A, 

‘‘Disposition of Public Comments,’’ to 

the final document to inform the reader 

how public comments were 

dispositioned. The Division of New and 

Renewed Licenses of the Office of 

Nuclear Reactor Regulation will 

transmit the final version of the 

document (ADAMS Accession Number 

ML21155A043) to each of the NRC 

Regional Offices via a memo to be 

issued concurrently with publication of 

this Federal Register notification. 

Dated: July 19, 2021. 

For the Nuclear Regulatory Commission. 

Anna H. Bradford, 

Director, Division of New and Renewed 

Licenses, Office of Nuclear Reactor 

Regulation.

FEDERAL RESERVE SYSTEM 

12 CFR Part 204 

[Docket No. R–1753] 

RIN 7100–AG17 

Regulation D: Reserve Requirements 

of Depository Institutions 

AGENCY: Board of Governors of the 

Federal Reserve System. 

ACTION: Final rule. 

SUMMARY: The Board of Governors of the 

Federal Reserve System (‘‘Board’’) is 

amending Regulation D, Reserve 

Requirements of Depository Institutions 

to revise the rate of interest paid on 

balances maintained to satisfy reserve 

balance requirements (‘‘IORR’’) and the 

rate of interest paid on excess balances 

(‘‘IOER’’) maintained at Federal Reserve 

Banks by or on behalf of eligible 

institutions. The final amendments 

specify that IORR is 0.15 percent and 

IOER is 0.15 percent, a 0.05 percentage 

point increase from their prior levels. 

The amendments are intended to 

enhance the role of IORR and IOER in 

maintaining the Federal funds rate in 

the target range established by the 

Federal Open Market Committee 

(‘‘FOMC’’ or ‘‘Committee’’).
