Questions asked at Fermi 2 meeting - June 18, 2015 Good afternoon Mr. Keegan, At the June 18, 2015, meeting regarding Fermi 2, you asked for the link to the Davis-Besse final Supplemental Environmental Impact Statement (SEIS), and also asked a number of questions about Fermi 2.

The link to the Davis-Besse final SEIS is: http://www.nrc.gov/reading-rm/doc-collections/nuregs/staff/sr1437/supplement52/. Additionally, the ADAMS accession number for Volume 1 is ML15112A098 and for Volume 2 is ML15113A187.

The following are responses to your questions:

1. How many dry-fuel storage casks are loaded at Fermi 2?

Six casks are loaded in the Independent Spent Fuel Storage Installation (ISFSI), at this time.

1

2. What is the schedule to load the dry-fuel storage casks?

The current schedule is to load dry-fuel casks in 2016, then again every 3 years after that.

3. Does Fermi 2 have full core offload capability?

No. Not at this time.

4. Will Fermi 2 build a hardened/underground ISFSI? The ISFSI in place at Fermi 2 complies with the NRC regulations in Part 72 to Title 10 to the Code of Federal Regulations. At this time, there are no plans to change the regulations to require licensees to either have an underground or a hardened concrete bunker to store the spent fuel.
5. How many electrical transmission lines does Fermi 2 have?

There are five electrical transmission lines that can supply power to Fermi 2.

6. Have flyovers of drones been a problem on site?

No, there have been no unauthorized flyovers of the site by drones. Any flyovers would be reported to the NRC and the Federal Aviation Administration. The NRC and the nuclear industry are looking into this issue.

7. Does Fermi 2 plan to install filtered vents per NRC Fukishima orders?

NRC is still evaluating the benefit of filtered vents and the necessity for additional regulations. Fermi 2 plans to wait until the NRC completes the rule-making process on this issue.

8. Does Fermi do coupon sampling to monitor for embrittlement?

Fermi 2 participates in an industry program that shares the results of coupon sampling. As described in section B.1.38 of the Fermi 2 License Renewal Application, the Fermi 2 reactor vessel surveillance program has been integrated into the Electric Power Research Institutes (EPRI) Boiling Water reactor Vessel and Internals Project (BWRVIP) Integrated Surveillance Program (ISP).

Please let me know if you have further questions.
