Scope of Lead Cask Inspections
- Lift a TN-32 cask and visually inspect bottom for coating adhesion and corrosion (i.e., loss of material)
- Remove a protective cover and visually inspect the following components for corrosion:
- Protective cover
- Neutron shield and neutron shield bolts
- Overpressure system components
- Visible lid sealing surface including lid bolts
- Visually inspect upper and lower trunnions for corrosion (loss of material)

Lead Cask Inspections
- Visual inspections will be conducted by certified NOE personnel (i.e., VT-1 or VT-3)
- A mockup of the cask bottom was used to test inspection technique and ensure meeting NOE requirements
- Indications of corrosion or lack of coating adhesion will be recorded and a Condition Report submitted for disposition
- Description/resolution will be included in the license renewal application
- Cask handling will be conducted by qualified personnel 8

Lead Cask Selection
- Selection of lead cask based on degradation mechanism of concern (corrosion)
- Circumstances unique to the North Anna ISFSI result in the selection of two different casks for the bottom and the protective cover inspections
- August 2011 seismic event (5.8 magnitude earthquake centered near Mineral, VA)
- Replacement of nine protective covers in 2002-2003 with new protective cover design

Selection of Lead Cask Bottom Inspection
- Based on the selection factors, cask TN-32.49 was chosen for bottom inspection
- One of four casks accessible with transporter
- TN-32.45 accessible now, but TN-32 high burnup demonstration cask will block it for future bottom inspections
- Moved the most of the accessible casks (3 inches) during seismic event
- Decay heat 29 KW when loaded
- Oldest of remaining accessible casks
- Best candidate with accessibility, movement during seismic event, high initial heat load, earliest loading date

Summary
- A detailed evaluation process was used to determine the lead cask(s) for inspection
- The two casks selected are believed to best meet our selection criteria, and are representative of the aging effects of concern
- Inspections will utilize industry-accepted standards and criteria to assess the cask conditions for license renewal
- Results to be included in License Renewal Application, submitted by June 2016 ill' Dominion 18
