NRC STAFF EXHIBIT LIST AND NOTICE OF REVISIONS The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) staff (Staff) hereby files its exhibit list for the mandatory hearing on the construction permit application of SHINE Medical Technologies, Inc. (SHINE). Each exhibit has been listed and marked according to the instructions in the Commissions Scheduling Order, dated December 1, 2015.
The sections below explain changes to documents previously provided to the Commission, filed with the Commission, or made publicly available in the Agencywide Documents Access and Management System (ADAMS).
A. Changes to Staff Documents As Identified in Responses to Commission Questions As indicated in its response to the Commissions Pre-hearing Question 66, as a result of its consideration of Commission Pre-Hearing Questions 66-70, the Staff no longer proposes to include conditions related to the preliminary amendment request process and construction changes screening criteria in the draft SHINE Construction Permit. Accordingly, the Staff has revised the SECY-15-0130, Staff Statement in Support of the Uncontested Hearing for Issuance of Construction Permit for the SHINE Medical Technologies, Inc. Medical Radioisotope Production Facility, dated October 22, 2015, the draft Construction Permit, and the Staffs Safety Evaluation Report (SER) to reflect its current position. Specifically,
- In SECY-15-0130 (NRC-001), the following paragraph (formerly on page 19 of the SECY provided to the Commission on October 22, 2015) has been deleted:
Additionally, the draft construction permit includes a condition that requires SHINE to establish a screening and evaluation process (similar to that described in 10 CFR 50.59) for determining whether an amendment, as described in 10 CFR 50.35(b) and 50.90, is necessary before SHINE makes changes to the facility during construction or prior to issuance of an operating license. Another license condition allows SHINE to use a preliminary amendment request process during this period if a change to the facility requires an amendment. Under this process, SHINE can submit a request for an NRC staff determination on whether it objects to SHINE proceeding with construction changes before the NRCs review of the amendment request is complete. If the NRC staff cannot make the requisite findings to issue the license amendment, SHINE must return the facility back to as described in the PSAR. Thus, these conditions would provide criteria to maintain design configuration control mechanisms consistent with the safety analysis while avoiding construction delays.
- In the draft Construction Permit, Conditions, 3.D.(2) and 3.D.(3), regarding a screening and evaluation process and preliminary amendment request process (as quoted below) are deleted:
o (2) In accordance with Appendix B to this permit, SHINE shall establish a screening and evaluation process for determining whether an amendment request is necessary before changes are implemented during construction.
o (3) SHINE may use a preliminary amendment request (PAR) process for amendments to this construction permit any time prior to the issuance of an operating license. To use the PAR process, SHINE shall submit a written request to the Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation (NRR) in accordance with Appendix B of this permit. If SHINE elects to proceed and the amendment request is subsequently denied, SHINE shall return the facility to its previous condition, as described in the preliminary safety analysis report.
- Consistent with the deletion of draft Construction Permit Conditions 3.D.(2) and (3), Appendix B, Screening and Evaluation Process for Changes During Construction and Preliminary Amendment Request Process, of the Construction Permit is deleted in its entirely. Condition 3.D.(4) is now renumbered as 3.D.(2) and is similarly revised to delete the reference to Appendix B. Condition 3.D.(2) now reads as follows:
(2) The Environmental Protection Plan described in Appendix A of this permit is hereby incorporated into this permit.
- In the SER, the paragraph quoted below (which formerly appeared in SER Section 1.1.4, at page 1-8) is deleted from the Staffs SER, Exhibit NRC-008 The construction permit has a condition that SHINE shall establish a screening and evaluation process for determining whether an amendment request to the construction permit is necessary if changes are made to the design of the facility as described in the PSAR. SHINE may use a preliminary amendment request process for amendments to the construction permit. These processes are described in Appendix E, Screening and Evaluation Process for Changes During Construction and Preliminary Amendment Request Process, to this SER.
- In the SER, the paragraph quoted below (which formerly appeared in SER Section 1.2, at page 1-12) is deleted from the Staffs SER, Exhibit NRC-008.
Additionally, the staff has proposed that the construction permit include a condition that requires SHINE to establish a screening and evaluation process (similar to that described in 10 CFR 50.59, Changes, tests and experiments) for determining whether an amendment, as described in 10 CFR 50.35(b) and 50.90, Application for amendment of license, construction permit, or early site permit, is necessary before SHINE makes changes to the facility during construction or prior to issuance of an operating license. Another license condition would allow SHINE to use a preliminary amendment request process during this period if a change to the facility requires an amendment. Under this process, SHINE can submit a request for an NRC staff determination on whether it objects to SHINE proceeding with construction changes before the NRCs review of the amendment request is complete. If the NRC staff cannot make the requisite findings to issue the license amendment, SHINE must return the facility back to as described in the PSAR. Thus, as described in Appendix E of this SER, these conditions would provide criteria to maintain design configuration control mechanisms consistent with the safety analysis while avoiding unnecessary construction delays.
As indicated in its response to Commission Pre-Hearing Question 2.b, SER, Chapter 1, page 1-5, has been revised to accurately reflect that the Staff considered all 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix A, General Design Criteria (GDCs) applied by SHINE to the proposed facility rather than just several, as indicated in the paragraph that begins, As required by 10 CFR 50.34(a)(3)(i) . . . . The bulleted list of GDCs formerly on SER pages 1-5 through 1-6 is deleted and that paragraph now states:
As required by 10 CFR 50.34(a)(3)(i), SHINE must describe the principal design criteria for its facility in the PSAR; however, SHINE is not required to follow 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix A, General Design Criteria [GDCs]
for Nuclear Power Plants, which applies only to nuclear power reactors.
Nonetheless, SHINE has applied the GDCs to the preliminary design of its facility, as appropriate. As such, the Staff based its review of SHINEs principal design criteria, in part, on SHINEs application of GDCs, as described in Tables 3.5a-1 Appendix A to 10 CFR 50 General Design Criteria Which Have Been Interpreted As They Apply to the SHINE Irradiation Facility, and 3.5b-1 Baseline and General Design Criteria for Radioisotope Production Facility, of the SHINE PSAR.
The Table of Contents in the SER has been revised to reflect the above-described revisions and deletions.
B. Corrections to Responses to the Commission Pre-Hearing Questions During its hearing preparations, the Staff determined that two of its responses to pre-hearing questions, filed on November 24, 2015, need revisions to accurately reflect the Staffs views.
In its response to Pre-Hearing Question 5.a (at page 6), the Staff described radioactive releases within the irradiation unit cell, but should have referred to the target solution vessel off-gas system (TOGS) shielded cell. Thus, the words into the atmosphere of the irradiation unit cell should be deleted from the penultimate sentence in the second paragraph. Instead, that sentence should read:
The Failure of the TOGS scenario is an accident that uses more realistic assumptions for releasing the radioactive gases inside the primary system boundary into the TOGS shielded cell.
In its response to Pre-Hearing Question 18.b (at page 13), the Staff mistakenly characterized SHINEs proposed system as over-concentrated with a negative void coefficient.
The Staff, however, meant to say that the target solution is under-concentrated. Accordingly, the term over-concentrated should be replaced with under-concentrated. The revised sentence now reads, Instead, it is better to think of SHINEs proposed systems as under-concentrated with a negative void coefficient.
The changes and corrections described above are reflected in the exhibits NRC-001, NRC-002, NRC-004-R, and NRC-008 being filed today. The Staff designated only the document reflecting the revisions to the responses to Commission Pre-Hearing Questions originally filed on November 24, 2015, as Exhibit NRC-004-R. No R designation was added to the other affected exhibits inasmuch as they were not previously filed in this proceeding.
The Staff informed SHINEs counsel of the changes and corrections described above.
SHINEs counsel has no objection to the Staff modifying the exhibits as described above.

NRC STAFF EXHIBIT LIST AND NOTICE OF REVISIONS The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) staff (Staff) hereby files its exhibit list for the mandatory hearing on the construction permit application of SHINE Medical Technologies, Inc. (SHINE). Each exhibit has been listed and marked according to the instructions in the Commissions Scheduling Order, dated December 1, 2015.
The sections below explain changes to documents previously provided to the Commission, filed with the Commission, or made publicly available in the Agencywide Documents Access and Management System (ADAMS).
A. Changes to Staff Documents As Identified in Responses to Commission Questions As indicated in its response to the Commissions Pre-hearing Question 66, as a result of its consideration of Commission Pre-Hearing Questions 66-70, the Staff no longer proposes to include conditions related to the preliminary amendment request process and construction changes screening criteria in the draft SHINE Construction Permit. Accordingly, the Staff has revised the SECY-15-0130, Staff Statement in Support of the Uncontested Hearing for Issuance of Construction Permit for the SHINE Medical Technologies, Inc. Medical Radioisotope Production Facility, dated October 22, 2015, the draft Construction Permit, and the Staffs Safety Evaluation Report (SER) to reflect its current position. Specifically,
- In SECY-15-0130 (NRC-001), the following paragraph (formerly on page 19 of the SECY provided to the Commission on October 22, 2015) has been deleted:
Additionally, the draft construction permit includes a condition that requires SHINE to establish a screening and evaluation process (similar to that described in 10 CFR 50.59) for determining whether an amendment, as described in 10 CFR 50.35(b) and 50.90, is necessary before SHINE makes changes to the facility during construction or prior to issuance of an operating license. Another license condition allows SHINE to use a preliminary amendment request process during this period if a change to the facility requires an amendment. Under this process, SHINE can submit a request for an NRC staff determination on whether it objects to SHINE proceeding with construction changes before the NRCs review of the amendment request is complete. If the NRC staff cannot make the requisite findings to issue the license amendment, SHINE must return the facility back to as described in the PSAR. Thus, these conditions would provide criteria to maintain design configuration control mechanisms consistent with the safety analysis while avoiding construction delays.
- In the draft Construction Permit, Conditions, 3.D.(2) and 3.D.(3), regarding a screening and evaluation process and preliminary amendment request process (as quoted below) are deleted:
o (2) In accordance with Appendix B to this permit, SHINE shall establish a screening and evaluation process for determining whether an amendment request is necessary before changes are implemented during construction.
o (3) SHINE may use a preliminary amendment request (PAR) process for amendments to this construction permit any time prior to the issuance of an operating license. To use the PAR process, SHINE shall submit a written request to the Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation (NRR) in accordance with Appendix B of this permit. If SHINE elects to proceed and the amendment request is subsequently denied, SHINE shall return the facility to its previous condition, as described in the preliminary safety analysis report.
- Consistent with the deletion of draft Construction Permit Conditions 3.D.(2) and (3), Appendix B, Screening and Evaluation Process for Changes During Construction and Preliminary Amendment Request Process, of the Construction Permit is deleted in its entirely. Condition 3.D.(4) is now renumbered as 3.D.(2) and is similarly revised to delete the reference to Appendix B. Condition 3.D.(2) now reads as follows:
(2) The Environmental Protection Plan described in Appendix A of this permit is hereby incorporated into this permit.
- In the SER, the paragraph quoted below (which formerly appeared in SER Section 1.1.4, at page 1-8) is deleted from the Staffs SER, Exhibit NRC-008 The construction permit has a condition that SHINE shall establish a screening and evaluation process for determining whether an amendment request to the construction permit is necessary if changes are made to the design of the facility as described in the PSAR. SHINE may use a preliminary amendment request process for amendments to the construction permit. These processes are described in Appendix E, Screening and Evaluation Process for Changes During Construction and Preliminary Amendment Request Process, to this SER.
- In the SER, the paragraph quoted below (which formerly appeared in SER Section 1.2, at page 1-12) is deleted from the Staffs SER, Exhibit NRC-008.
Additionally, the staff has proposed that the construction permit include a condition that requires SHINE to establish a screening and evaluation process (similar to that described in 10 CFR 50.59, Changes, tests and experiments) for determining whether an amendment, as described in 10 CFR 50.35(b) and 50.90, Application for amendment of license, construction permit, or early site permit, is necessary before SHINE makes changes to the facility during construction or prior to issuance of an operating license. Another license condition would allow SHINE to use a preliminary amendment request process during this period if a change to the facility requires an amendment. Under this process, SHINE can submit a request for an NRC staff determination on whether it objects to SHINE proceeding with construction changes before the NRCs review of the amendment request is complete. If the NRC staff cannot make the requisite findings to issue the license amendment, SHINE must return the facility back to as described in the PSAR. Thus, as described in Appendix E of this SER, these conditions would provide criteria to maintain design configuration control mechanisms consistent with the safety analysis while avoiding unnecessary construction delays.
As indicated in its response to Commission Pre-Hearing Question 2.b, SER, Chapter 1, page 1-5, has been revised to accurately reflect that the Staff considered all 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix A, General Design Criteria (GDCs) applied by SHINE to the proposed facility rather than just several, as indicated in the paragraph that begins, As required by 10 CFR 50.34(a)(3)(i) . . . . The bulleted list of GDCs formerly on SER pages 1-5 through 1-6 is deleted and that paragraph now states:
As required by 10 CFR 50.34(a)(3)(i), SHINE must describe the principal design criteria for its facility in the PSAR; however, SHINE is not required to follow 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix A, General Design Criteria [GDCs]
for Nuclear Power Plants, which applies only to nuclear power reactors.
Nonetheless, SHINE has applied the GDCs to the preliminary design of its facility, as appropriate. As such, the Staff based its review of SHINEs principal design criteria, in part, on SHINEs application of GDCs, as described in Tables 3.5a-1 Appendix A to 10 CFR 50 General Design Criteria Which Have Been Interpreted As They Apply to the SHINE Irradiation Facility, and 3.5b-1 Baseline and General Design Criteria for Radioisotope Production Facility, of the SHINE PSAR.
The Table of Contents in the SER has been revised to reflect the above-described revisions and deletions.
B. Corrections to Responses to the Commission Pre-Hearing Questions During its hearing preparations, the Staff determined that two of its responses to pre-hearing questions, filed on November 24, 2015, need revisions to accurately reflect the Staffs views.
In its response to Pre-Hearing Question 5.a (at page 6), the Staff described radioactive releases within the irradiation unit cell, but should have referred to the target solution vessel off-gas system (TOGS) shielded cell. Thus, the words into the atmosphere of the irradiation unit cell should be deleted from the penultimate sentence in the second paragraph. Instead, that sentence should read:
The Failure of the TOGS scenario is an accident that uses more realistic assumptions for releasing the radioactive gases inside the primary system boundary into the TOGS shielded cell.
In its response to Pre-Hearing Question 18.b (at page 13), the Staff mistakenly characterized SHINEs proposed system as over-concentrated with a negative void coefficient.
The Staff, however, meant to say that the target solution is under-concentrated. Accordingly, the term over-concentrated should be replaced with under-concentrated. The revised sentence now reads, Instead, it is better to think of SHINEs proposed systems as under-concentrated with a negative void coefficient.
The changes and corrections described above are reflected in the exhibits NRC-001, NRC-002, NRC-004-R, and NRC-008 being filed today. The Staff designated only the document reflecting the revisions to the responses to Commission Pre-Hearing Questions originally filed on November 24, 2015, as Exhibit NRC-004-R. No R designation was added to the other affected exhibits inasmuch as they were not previously filed in this proceeding.
The Staff informed SHINEs counsel of the changes and corrections described above.
SHINEs counsel has no objection to the Staff modifying the exhibits as described above.
