the date of issuance.
The amendment modified the Technical Specifications to authorize
the use of ATRIUM-10 fuel in the reactor for the ninth refueling cycle

The application for the amendment complies with the standards and
requirements of the Atomic Energy Act of 1954, as amended (the Act),
and the Commission's rules and regulations. The Commission has made
appropriate findings as required by the Act and the Commission's rules
