On October 30, 2023, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) published a notice in the Federal Register (88 FR 74019) amending its spent fuel storage regulations by revising the Holtec International HI-STORM 100 Cask System within the List of approved spent fuel storage casks to include Renewed Amendment No. 17 to Certificate of Compliance No. 1014.
