Omaha Public Power District (OPPD) Attendees: Bernie Van Sant, Steve Andersen, Matt Pohl, Rich Jaworski, Steve Gebers, and Tom Matthews NRC Attendees: Shana Helton, Banad Jagannath, Elizabeth Thompson, Larry Campbell, Joe Sebrosky, Ray Kellar (RIV),
John Hanna (Senior Resident Inspector), Leonard Willoughby (Resident Inspector), Scott Atwater (RIV)
Transnuclear Inc., (TN) Attendees: Jim Axline, Robert Grubb, Jayant Bondre, Shane Gardner, Prakesh Narayanan The purpose of the call was to discuss a possible change in method of evaluation for a shielding calculation related to a Fort Calhoun inspection and to discuss what shielding calculations, if any, Fort Calhoun intended to submit with its impending exemption request. The exemption request and these Issues were discussed at a high-level during a public meeting on 5/24/06 (see ADAMS ML0661560S54 for the summary of the public meeting).
Highlights from phone call
- Fort Calhoun confirmed that they would be sending in a shielding calculation related to proposed change to TS 1.2.11 (this was attachment 3 placeholder in Fort Calhoun's draft submittal).
- Fort Calhoun also indicated that TN would perform calculations with Fort Calhoun fuel to determine the dose rate on the outside surface of the bare transfer cask. Fort Calhoun took an action item to include a brief discussion of the calculation and the results of the calculation in the exemption submittal. Fort Calhoun and TN indicated that the calculation would be for the normal condition and would be done using 3D methodology that the staff has previously approved. Fort Calhoun indicated that It did not intend to submit the calculation as part of the exemption request but that it would be available for audit onsite.

SUMMARY
(Continue on Page 3)
- Regarding the status of the potential change in method of evaluation in the shielding area, TN maintained the position that it bad in the 5/24/06 meeting that revision 1 of its 72.48 does not need need to be modified. In addition, TN maintains that the "ssupplemental" calculations it performed and that OPPD provided to the staff to review as part of the on-going inspection merely demonstrate that TN's original conclusion that there is no change in method of evaluation is correct. These "esupplemental" calculations involve a 3D calculation of the light weight transfer cask during accident conditions using bounding type fuel.
