August 25, 2011 Mr. L. N. Hartz Vice President, Nuclear Support Services Virginia Electric and Power Company 5000 Dominion Boulevard Glen Allen, VA 23060
SUBJECT:
REQUEST FOR EXEMPTIONS FROM CERTAIN REQUIREMENTS IN 10 CFR PART 72 FOR THE SURRY POWER STATION INDEPENDENT SPENT FUEL STORAGE INSTALLATION - SUPPLEMENTAL INFORMATION NEEDED
Dear Mr. Hartz:
By letter dated July 21, 2011, Virginia Electric and Power Company (Dominion) requested exemptions from the requirements of 10 CFR 72.212(b)(3) and (b)(11). The exemptions were requested for NUHOMS HD Dry Shielded Canisters (DSC), Model Number HD-32PTH, with serial numbers DOM-32PTH-001-C, -002-C, -003-C, and -009-C due to non-compliance with the terms and conditions of the Transnuclear, Inc., Certificate of Compliance (CoC) 72-1030, Amendment No. 0. At the time of loading, the decay heat limit was exceeded for five fuel assemblies. The five fuel assemblies are distributed over the four identified DSCs.
U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission staff performed an acceptance review of the exemption request, to determine if the request contains sufficient information to allow the staff to complete the detailed technical review. This letter is to advise you that based on our acceptance review, the request does not contain sufficient information. The information needed to continue our review is described in the enclosure to this letter as a Request for Supplemental Information. In order to schedule our technical review, this supplemental information should be provided by September 14, 2011. If the supplemental information is not received by this date, the review of this request may be delayed. The supplemental information requested and associated timeframe for the Dominion response were discussed with Mr. Thomas Szymanski of your staff on August 25, 2011.
If you have any questions regarding this matter, please contact me at 301-492-3268.
Sincerely,
/RA/
