SUMMARY

REPORT 2 Basis/Justification for Change:

An evaluation of each of the below list ed commitments was performed in accordance wi th NEI 99-04. NRC amended its regulations, RIN 3150-AH95, such that the requirements governing critic ality control for spent fuel pool storage racks do not apply to the fuel within a sp ent fuel transportation package or storage cask when the package is in a spent fuel pool.

The evaluation determined that each of the items are no long er commitments based on the rule change. Because these commitments were initiated as a result of a safety eval uation report decision, they ha ve been tabulated in the commitment summary r eport for NRC notification.
