Abstract
The Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) is confirming the effective date of September 12, 2001, for the direct final rule that appeared in the Federal Register of June 29, 2001 (66 FR 34523). This direct final rule amended the NRC's regulations by revising the Standardized NUHOMS<Register>-24P and -52B cask system listing within the "List of Approved Spent Fuel Storage Casks" to include Amendment No. 3 to Certificate of Compliance Number 1004. Amendment No. 3 will modify the present cask system design to add the -61BT dry storage canister which is the storage portion of a dual purpose cask design intended to both store and transport spent fuel. This document confirms the effective date.
