Multi-Purpose Canister (MPC) System Certificate of Compliance (CoC) No. 1025, Appendix A "Technical Specifications for NAC-MPC System", Technical Specifications (TS) A.5.3 "Surveillance After an Off-Normal, Accident, or Natural Phenomena Event" at the Haddam Neck Plant (HNP) independent spent fuel storage installation (ISFSI). The exemption request seeks a modification of TS A.5.3 inspection requirements for the inlet and outlet vents following off-normal, accident, and natural phenomena events. The NRC has determined that, under 10 CFR 72.7, the exemption is authorized by law, will not endanger life or property or the common defense and security, and is otherwise in the public interest. Therefore, the NRC grants CYAPCO an exemption from the requirements in 10 CFR 72.212(b)(3), 10 CFR 72.212(b)(5)(i), 10 CFR 72.214, and to TS A.5.3 for the NAC-MPC System CoC No. 1025 storage casks at the HNP ISFSI. The exemption authorizes the licensee to use the surveillance requirement, conditions, required actions, and completion times defined in NAC-MPC TS A 3.1.6 to comply with NAC-MPC TS A 5.3 after off-normal, accident, or natural phenomena events, but is specifically limited to major snow or icing events. The NRC staff determined the proposed action fits a category of actions that do not require an environmental assessment or environmental impact statement. The exemption meets the categorical exclusion requirements of 10 CFR 51.22(c)(25)(i)-(vi). Therefore an Environmental Assessment and Finding of No Significant Impact will not be issued. A copy of the Notice of Issuance that was sent to the Office of the Federal Register for publishing on February 22, 2016, is enclosed.
