5. Description of Packaging and Authorized Contents Model Number, Fissile Class Other Conditions, and

References:

(a) Packaging (1) Model No.: CNS-1600 (2) Description A steel encased lead shielded shipping cask. The packaging is a steel double-walled, lead-filled circular cylinder. A steel, plug-type, lead-filled lid is attached with twelve,1-1/4" bolts; and a silicone gasket. Outer steel sheets are separated from the cask walls with small diameter wires. The lead shielding is 5" in the sides, 6" in the base and 5-3/4" in the lid. Two bolted-on steel lugs are for lifting only.

The lid has a steel U-bar for lifting. The cavity drain line is closed with a plug. The cask is 39" in diameter and 68-1/2" long. The cavity is 26-1/2" in diameter and 54" long. The packaging weight is about 26,000 pounds.

(3) Drawings The packaging is constructed in accordance with Chem-Nuclear Systems, Inc., Drawings NPS-ll477, Rev. O, and NPS-ll577, Rev. O.

(b) Contents Type, form and maximum quantity of material per package

~

(i) Greater than Type A quantities of byproduct material as solid metal.

Decay heat not to exceed 600 watts and maximum weight not to exceed 5,000 pounds; or 790417006l

Page 2 - Certificate No. 9081 - Revision No. 2 - Docket flo. 71-9081 5.(b) Contents (Continued)

(ii) Greater than Type A quantities of neutron sources in special form.

Decay heat not to exceed 50 watts and fissile material and corresponding minimum transport index as specified in 10 CFR 571.11(b) (2).

(iii) Process solids, either dewatered, solid, or solidified in a secondary sealed container meeting the requirements for low specific activity radioactive material, or Solid reactor components in secondary containers, as required, that meet the requirements for low specific activity radioactive material.

6.

The lid closure to the cask shall be secured by twelve, SA-354, Type BD, 1-1/4-7UNC bolts.

7.

For packaging of other than neutron sources, the cask shall be delivered to a carrier dry and the cavity drain line snall be closed with a plug which will maintain its seal at temperatures up to at least 620 F.

8.

For packaging of neutron sources, the cavity drain line shall be closed with a plug with a melting temperature of 200*F and the cask cavity shall be filled with water with a 5-inch air space within the cask cavity. When needed, sufficient antifreeze in the cask shall be used to prevent damage to any component of the package due to freezing.

9.

For packaging of other than neutron sources, measurements shall be made to

. determine that the dose rate does not exceed 30 mrem /hr at 3 feet from the surface of a dry loaded cask.

10. For packaging of neutron sources, measurements shall be made to determine that the dose rate does not exceed 1,000 mrem /hr at 3 feet from the surface of a dry cask with no additional shielding within the cask.
11. The contents described in 5.(b)(iii) shall be transported on a motor vehicle, railroad car, aircraft, inland water craft, or hold or deck of a seagoing vessel assigned for sole use of the licensee.
