 AGENCY: Nuclear Regulatory Commission.
 ACTION: Correcting amendments.
 SUMMARY: The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) published a direct final rule on January 6, 2016, amending its spent fuel storage regulations by revising the Holtec International, Inc. (Holtec) HI-STORM 100 Cask System listing within the “List of approved spent fuel storage casks” to include Amendment No. 9, Revision 1, to Certificate of Compliance (CoC) No. 1014. The direct final rule was effective on March 21, 2016. On March 14, 2016, the NRC published a direct final rule again amending its spent fuel storage regulations by revising the Holtec HI-STORM 100 Cask System listing within the “List of approved spent fuel storage casks,” to include Amendment No. 10 to CoC No. 1014. That direct final rule was effective on May 31, 2016. The technical specifications (TS) for both the Holtec HI-STORM 100 Cask System, Amendments No. 9, Revision 1, and No. 10 included minor editorial and non-substantive errors. The purpose of this action is correct these errors.
 DATES: The correction is effective August 31, 2017.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On June 23, 2017, the NRC received a request from Holtec to correct minor editorial and non-substantive errors in Appendix A, “Technical Specifications for the HI-STORM 100 Cask System,” of CoC No. 1014. In its letter, Holtec stated that it identified a typographical error that should be corrected. Specifically, Table 3-2 refers to Tables 3-3 and 3-4 for per cell decay heat load limits for the “MPC-68/68F/68FF/68M”, but Tables 3-3 and 3-4 omitted the MPC-68M. The NRC previously reviewed and approved the use of model MPC-68M in Amendment No. 8 to CoC No. 1014 (which was superseded by Amendment No. 8 Revision 1). In Amendment No. 9, the NRC added Tables 3-3 and 3-4 and, in Table 3-2, added a reference to decay heat loads in Tables 3-3 and 3-4. The technical specifications for Amendment No, 9, Revision 1 (which superseded Amendment No. 9), and Amendment No. 10 include the same Tables 3-2, 3-3 and 3-4 as were in Amendment No. 9. The reference in Appendix A, Table 3-2, refers to Table 3-3 and 3-4 for the per cell heat load limits for the `MPC-68/68F/68FF/68M.' However, Tables 3-3 and 3-4 only have rows for `MPC-68/68F/68FF,' and do not specifically include the MPC-68M. Since the decay heat load, whether uniform or regionalized, for all 68 cell Multi-purpose Canisters (MPCs) are identical, and the NRC previously reviewed and approved this heat load, it is evident that the omission of 68M in Tables 3-3 and 3-4 was an editorial error. Although this error is editorial, and has no impact on the loading of MPCs, it is still appropriate to correct the error in Amendment No. 9, Revision 1, and Amendment No. 10. Correcting this error would not change the substantive responsibilities of any person or entity regulated by the NRC. This document corrects these errors. Rulemaking Procedure Under the Administrative Procedure Act (5 U.S.C. 553(b)), an agency may waive the normal notice and comment requirements if it finds, for good cause, that they are impracticable, unnecessary, or contrary to the public interest. As authorized by 5 U.S.C. 553(b)(3)(B), the NRC finds good cause to waive notice and opportunity for comment on this correction because it will have no substantive impact and is of a minor and administrative nature dealing with a correction to a CFR section related only to management, organization, procedure, and practice. Specifically, this amendment is to correct minor editorial errors. This correction does not require action by any person or entity regulated by the NRC. Also, the substantive responsibilities of any person or entity regulated by the NRC are not changed. Accordingly, for the reasons stated, the NRC finds, pursuant to 5 U.S.C. 553(d)(3), that good cause exists to make this correction effective upon publication.
