Amendment No. 13 amends the certificate of compliance to add a new type of radioactive contents to be stored inside the canister, use an alternative concrete compressive strength, and add a new design configuration to accommodate the new contents. In the direct final rule, the NRC stated that if no significant adverse comments were received, the direct final rule would become effective on November 19, 2024. The NRC did not receive any comments on the direct final rule. Therefore, this direct final rule will become effective as scheduled. Dated: October 11, 2024. For the Nuclear Regulatory Commission.
