Title: List of Approved Spent Fuel Storage Casks -- HI-STORM 100, Amendment 10 [NRC-2015-0270] 
Abstract:

This direct final rule would amending the Commission's spent fuel storage regulations by revising the Holtec International HI-STORM 100 Cask System listing within the "List of approved spent fuel storage casks" to include Amendment No. 10 to Certificate of Compliance (CoC) No. 1014.  Amendment No. 10 adds new fuel classes to the contents approved for the loading of 16x16-pin fuel assemblies into a HI-STORM 100 Cask System; allows a minor increase in manganese in an alloy material for the system's overpack and transfer cask; clarifies the minimum water displacement required of a dummy fuel rod (i.e., a rod not filled with uranium pellets); and clarifies the design pressures needed for normal operation of forced helium drying systems.
