Summer Nuclear Power Station, Jenkinsville, SC, to the Port of Savannah, Savannah, GA (NRC Route No. 234).

The NRC has reviewed your application and concluded that the information satisfies the requirements of Title 10 of the Federal Code of Regulations (10 CFR) 73.37. Specific details of Route No. 234 are enclosed [Enclosure 1]. Specific details of Route No. 234 combined with additional Safeguards Information (SGI) are also enclosed [Enclosure 2]. Enclosure 2 will not be released to the public and you should protect it in accordance with the requirements of 10 CFR 73.21. Approval of Route No. 234 will expire June 30, 2015. The NRC expects your periodic review and update of the emergency phone numbers associated with this route.

Changes to emergency contact numbers do not qualify as a route deviation or change.

Licensees are required to comply with the requirements of 10 CFR 73.37, and these ASMs when shipping SNF.
