- 1. Background and Introduction Florida Power Corporation, doing business as Progress Energy Florida, Inc., a subsidiary of Progress Energy, Inc., is seeking renewal of the operating license for the Crystal River Unit 3 Nuclear Generating Plant (Crystal River), currently set to expire at midnight on December 3, 2016. An application for the renewal of Facility Operating License No. DPR-72, for an additional 20-year period, was submitted to the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) on December 16, 2008. The application is currently under review.
However, pursuant to 10 CFR 50.54(bb), licensees of nuclear power plants that are within five years of the expiration of the reactor operating license shall submit written notification to the NRC for its review and preliminary approval of the program by which the licensee intends to manage and provide funding for the caretaking of all irradiated fuel at the reactor following permanent cessation of operation of the reactor until title to and possession of the irradiated fuel is transferred to the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) for ultimate disposal. Since Progress Energy has submitted an application for License Renewal pursuant to 10 CFR 54, Progress Energy requests that the NRC schedule the review of this information following a final decision on the License Renewal application.
- 2. Spent Fuel Management Strategy Completion of the decommissioning process is dependent upon the DOE's ability to remove spent fuel from the site in a timely manner. DOE's repository program assumes that spent fuel allocations will be accepted for disposal from the nation's commercial nuclear plants, with limited exceptions, in the order (the "queue") in which it was discharged from the reactor. Progress Energy's current spent fuel management plan for the Crystal River spent fuel is based in general upon: 1) a 2020 start date for DOE initiating transfer of commercial spent fuel to a federal facility and 2) expectations for spent fuel receipt by the DOE for the Crystal River fuel. Progress Energy projects that the Crystal River fuel could be completely removed from the site as early as 2057, based on an oldest fuel first priority and the DOE achieving an annual rate of transfer (3,000 metric tons of uranium per year) as reflected in DOE's latest Acceptance Priority Ranking and Annual Capacity Report dated June 2004 (DOE/RW-0567).
The assumed 2020 DOE start date is nominally based on the last position stated by the DOE. On July 15, 2008, the then-Director of the DOE's Office of Civilian Radioactive Waste Management testified before Congress that DOE, "could be ready to begin accepting spent nuclear fuel by 2020," - based on continued program funding.[1 ] The current administration has cut the budget for the geological repository program, but the administration has also appointed a Blue Ribbon Commission on America's Nuclear Future to make recommendations for a new plan for nuclear waste disposal. That Commission's charter includes a requirement that the Commission consider "options for safe storage of used nuclear fuel while final disposition pathways are selected and deployed." Progress Energy believes that one or more monitored retrievable storage facilities could be put into place following a Blue Ribbon Commission recommendation for the same, within a relatively short time frame, at least by 2020. For example, a facility such as that licensed by the NRC to Private Fuel Storage could be used by the
U. S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission Enclosure 1 3F1111-01 Page 2 of 15 DOE to store fuel until a final disposition is determined. In any event, at this time, there is no basis for the use of another proposed start date for DOE performance.
The NRC requires (in 10 CFR 50.54(bb)) that licensees establish a program to manage and provide funding for the caretaking of all irradiated fuel at the reactor site until title of the fuel is transferred to the DOE. Interim storage of Crystal River spent fuel, until the DOE takes receipt, will be in the Crystal River auxiliary building's storage pool, and/or at an Independent Spent Fuel Storage Installation (ISFSI) being constructed on the Crystal River site.
Crystal River is projected to generate 1,508 spent fuel assemblies through the end of its currently licensed operations in 2016. To date, the DOE has failed to remove fuel from the site, provide interim storage casks, identify an acceptable/compatible interim storage system, or identify what casks it will use in the future for the transfer of fuel from the site.
Because of this failure of the DOE, Progress Energy is constructing an ISFSI within the owner controlled area to support continued plant operations. The ISFSI will be operated under the site's general license. The current plan, in mitigation of the DOE's breach, is to put Crystal River spent fuel into on-site dry storage pending delivery of the fuel to the DOE.
For the purpose of this plan, Progress Energy will assume that the assemblies stored in the auxiliary building's spent fuel storage pool at the time of shutdown will be moved into dry storage modules on the ISFSI pad by 2023. From there, they will be loaded into a DOE-supplied transport cask for transport to DOE's site.
Progress Energy believes this plan would be workable for transfer of fuel to the DOE.
The use of the assumptions in this plan should not be construed by the DOE or any other party as a statement that Progress Energy believes this approach would or should be used when the DOE ultimately performs its obligations under the contract to bring a cask suitable to Crystal River. Progress Energy advances this plan only because the DOE has not identified its cask system, and the system's attributes, including but not limited to its weight, fuel capacity, and loading and handling requirements.
This plan assumes that, starting in 2024, that the dry shielded canisters (DSCs) are periodically off-loaded into DOE transport casks such that all Crystal River canisters are removed from the site by the year 2057. Progress Energy's analysis conservatively assumes, for purposes only of this report, that the Company does not employ DOE spent fuel disposal contract allowances for up to 20% additional fuel designation for shipment to the DOE each year.
In the event that Crystal River does cease operations in 2016, Progress Energy will continue to comply with existing NRC licensing requirements, including the operation and maintenance of the systems and structures needed to support continued operation of the spent fuel pool and ISFSI, as necessary, under the decommissioning scenario ultimately selected. In addition, Progress Energy will also comply with applicable license termination requirements in accordance with 10 CFR 50.82 with respect to plant shutdown and post-shutdown activities including seeking such NRC approvals and on such schedules as necessary to satisfy these requirements consistent with the continued storage of irradiated fuel.

- 3. Cost Considerations The total cost to decommission Crystal River is delineated in the "Preliminary Decommissioning Cost Estimate."' 21 In this document, decommissioning costs are allocated into the three major categories of license termination, spent fuel management and site restoration. The allocations are reproduced in Table 1 (Summary of Major Cost Contributors). All costs are reported in 2011 nominal dollars.
The timing of the spent fuel management expenditures ($271.910 million) is shown in Table 2. The expenditures include direct costs (e.g., for dry storage modules, spent fuel handling, packaging and transferring the spent fuel) as well as indirect costs such as program management and oversight, security, pool and ISFSI operating costs, fees, insurance, etc., projected to be incurred over the post-operations storage period.
The significant contributors to the direct cost of Crystal River spent fuel management are identified in Table 3. As shown, costs are included for the procurement of DSCs, as well as the loading and transfer activities associated with transferring the spent fuel from the pool to the ISFSI pad, and the eventual transfer of the fuel at the ISFSI to the DOE. The direct cost of $107.557 million is a subset of the $271.910 million shown in Table 2. The timing of the direct spent fuel management expenditures ($107.557 million) is shown in Table 4.
It must also be noted that these figures will vary based on actual DOE performance, including the actual cask provisions and requirements that the DOE settles upon. At this time, the DOE has not identified any transport casks or requirements. Therefore, there is considerable uncertainty as to the actual costs that may have to be incurred; and uncertainty as to whether the DOE will agree to bear certain of those costs. Major scheduling milestones are identified in Table 5.
At shutdown, the Crystal River spent fuel pool is expected to contain freshly discharged assemblies from the most recent refueling cycles. It is assumed, for purposes of this cost estimate, that Crystal River will transfer spent fuel directly from its pool to the ISFSI.
The transfer would occur over a six and one-half year period following the permanent cessation of Crystal River operations. The Crystal River spent fuel will be moved into DSCs and placed out on the ISFSI. It is assumed that this time period (six and one-half years) is sufficient to meet the decay heat requirements for dry storage.
To support decommissioning operations, Progress Energy anticipates loading 38 DSCs with Crystal River assemblies stored in the auxiliary building's spent fuel pool. The DSCs will then be placed in storage casks at the ISFSI. The decommissioning scenario assumes that the existing ISFSI has sufficient capacity to accommodate the pool inventory at shutdown.
In the absence of identifiable DOE cask requirements, for purposes of this plan only, the design and capacity of the DSCs is based upon Transnuclear, Inc.'s standardized NUHOMS commercial dry cask storage system (specifically, NUHOMS-32PTH1). The NUHOMS-32PTH1 dry storage canister has a capacity of 32 fuel assemblies at a unit cost of approximately $1.2 million. An additional cost of $256,000 is allocated for the concrete horizontal storage module (HSM). It should be noted that Progress Energy's contract with the DOE requires the DOE to provide transport casks to Progress Energy, but for present purposes, this estimate conservatively includes those costs.
U. S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission Enclosure 1 3F1111-01 Page 4 of 15 An average unit cost of approximately $700,000 was estimated for the labor and equipment to load, seal and transfer each DSC from the storage pool to the ISFSI. A unit cost of approximately $100,000 was estimated for the final transfer of the DSC at the ISFSI into a DOE transport cask. It is not known what the loading, sealing and transport costs will be for actual DOE-supplied equipment, because the DOE has not identified that equipment. It is assumed, for purposes of this plan only, that the DOE will accept the NUHOMS' DSCs and will not require offloading of the fuel to the DOE-supplied equipment.
Operation of the Crystal River spent fuel pool is discontinued in 2023 once the fuel has been transferred to dry storage. ISFSI operations will continue until such time that the DOE is able to complete the transfer of the fuel from the site (currently anticipated to be in 2057).
- 4. ISFSI Decommissioning With the spent fuel removed from the site, the ISFSI is available for decommissioning. It is assumed that once the DSCs containing the spent fuel assemblies have been removed, any required decontamination is performed on the HSMs, and the license for the facility terminated, the HSMs can be dismantled using conventional techniques for the demolition of reinforced concrete. The concrete storage pad can then be removed and the area regraded.
The cost estimated to decontaminate any activated HSMs to the extent necessary to release the facilities for conventional demolition is estimated at $1.8 million.
Conventional demolition of the HSMs and pad, and restoration of the affected area of the site is estimated at $0.9 million.
- 5. Plan for Funding Spent Fuel Management As of September 30, 2011, the aggregate trust fund balance for Crystal River was approximately $578.0 million.1 21 For the purpose of this funding analysis, this value was also used as the assumed year-end 2011 balance.
The cost to decommission Crystal River is estimated at approximately $1,077.6 million 1 31 The estimate is based (in 2011 dollars). upon a scenario under which the unit would cease operating in 2016 and be placed in safe-storage. Decommissioning would be complete no later than 60 years after cessation of permanent operations.
Approximately 70.0% of the total or $753.717 million is estimated to be required to terminate the operating license and 25.2% of the total or $271.910 million to manage the spent fuel until such time that it can be transferred to the DOE (the remaining 4.8% is associated with site restoration activities).
The decommissioning funding plan is shown in Table 6. To demonstrate the adequacy of the existing funds to cover both license termination and spent fuel management, the fund balance going forward is escalated at 2% per year. The results of this analysis demonstrate that the balance in the decommissioning trust is adequate to fund both the license termination and spent fuel management costs.
U. S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission Enclosure 1 3F1111-01 Page 5 of 15 Although the decommissioning trust fund is for radiological decommissioning cost only, to the extent that the trust fund balance exceeds costs required for radiological decommissioning, these funds would be available to address costs incurred by the licensee including spent fuel management costs. The licensee acknowledges the need for an exemption pursuant to 10 CFR 50.12(a) to use radiological decommissioning trust funds for anything beyond decommissioning activities as defined in 10 CFR 50.2.
It should be noted that the projected expenditures for spent fuel management identified in the decommissioning cost analysis do not consider the outcome of the litigation (including compensation for damages) with the DOE with regards to the delays incurred by Progress Energy in the timely removal of the spent fuel from the site. Progress Energy views the extended spent fuel management costs to be damages that should be paid by the government because of the DOE's breach of the spent fuel disposal contract.
In addition, this analysis assumes no license renewal, which is another conservatism.
