SUMMARY
By application dated July 30, 2018, the U.S. Department of Energy (the applicant) submitted an amendment request for Certificate of Compliance (CoC) No. 5797 for the Inner and Outer HFIR
[High Flux Isotopic Reactor] Unirradiated Fuel Element Shipping Containers. The submittal included the consolidated safety analysis report for packaging.
EVALUATION In response to our safety evaluation dated August 22, 2017, the applicant submitted a consolidated application in view of the number of supplements previously submitted, in accordance with 10 CFR 71.38(c), for CoC No. 5797.
The general design of the packages was not modified. The applicant incorporated all package design changes previously reviewed and authorized by the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC), several editorial changes and clarifications, and enhancements that facilitated conversion of the document to an electronic format. Oak Ridge National Laboratory prepared the consolidated safety analysis report in support of this amendment request.
The NRC staff reviewed the changes requested by the applicant including the changes that were previously evaluated and approved, and finds that they do not affect the ability of the package to meet the requirements of 10 CFR Part 71.
CONDITIONS The condition specified in the Certificate of Compliance No. 5797 has been revised as indicated below:
The references section includes July 30, 2018, amendment request submittal.
CONCLUSION Based on the statements and representations in the application, as supplemented, and the conditions listed above, the staff concludes that the design has been adequately described and evaluated and meets the requirements of 10 CFR Part 71.
