SUBJECT:
One-time Approval Request for BRR Package, Docket No. 71-9341
Dear Mr. White:
Orano Federal Services LLC (Orano FS) hereby makes a request of NRC for a one-time approval of the corrections to clerical errors in the Package Operations (Chapter 7) of the BRR SAR. The corrections have been incorporated into Revision 16 of the SAR and are being submitted concurrently under separate cover with a copy to Nishka Devaser.
The clerical errors occurred when Orano added certain operational steps to account for the cobalt-60 payload in Revision 11 of the SAR. The sequential number of steps following the inserted steps increased by one. However, there were several internal references to re-numbered steps, and the references were not updated. This caused the step references to be wrong. In addition, a new Section 7.1.3 had been added, and the old Section 7.1.3 was incremented to Section 7.1.4, but references to Section 7.1.3 were not updated. The detail corrections are as follows:
- Section 7.1.2.1, Wet Loading, page 7.1-4, Steps 35 and 36, increment each of the referenced steps within these two steps by one.
- Section 7.1.2.2, Dry Loading, page 7.1-7, Steps 31 and 32, increment each of the referenced steps within these two steps by one.
- Section 7.2.2, Removal of Contents, page 7.2-1, increment the referenced step 6 to step 7.
- Section 7.2.2.1, Wet Unloading, page 7.2-3, Step 26, change Section 7.1.3, Preparation for Transport to Section 7.1.4, Preparation for Transport.
- Section 7.2.2.2, Dry Unloading, page 7.2-4, Step 21, change Section 7.1.3, Preparation for Transport to Section 7.1.4, Preparation for Transport.

@orano_USA As can be seen, these changes reflect corrections of clerical errors and do not change the design, analysis results, or operating steps of the package.
Consequently, the BRR package complies with all of the applicable requirements of 10 CFR 71.
A copy of the affected pages, with red-line corrections, is attached to this letter.
To reiterate, a fully corrected SAR, Revision 16, is concurrently being submitted to NRC. In order to support ongoing shipping activities, we request that the one-time approval be issued to Orano by email by August 2, 2019, and be valid for all users of the BRR package for a duration of at least two months.
Please send a copy of the email to these recipients for their information:
eslau@mit.edu Douglas.Morrell@inl.gov Should you have any questions regarding this submittal, please contact me at (253) 552-1321, or (253) 293-0627, or via email (phil.noss@orano.group ).
