By the enclosed letter dated April 16, 1976, Duke Power Company (DPC) proposed an amendment to the Oconee Technical Specifi-cations to permit the dry storage of new fuel assemblies in fuel storage racks in the Unit 3 spent fuel pool.
o
.l l
The Unit 3. spent fuel pool is presently dry and undergoing modifications as authorised in our letter of December 22, 1975. Four of the ten new-design fuel storage modules have been completed and are installed in the Unit 3 pool and are capable of storing new fuel assemblies. Completion of the remaining work in the pool'is not anticipated until July 1976, at the earliest. The co:nmon pool for Units 1 and 2 presently j. l[
g contains two batches of spent _ fuel assemb I
and one batch of new assemblies. Due to this i
^
inventory, a full core discharge from eith'er j
Unit 1 or. Unit 2 reactors cannot be accessio' dated. "
In order to provide for this capability. DPC-is proposing that the new fuel assemblies T
l y.
stored in Units 1 and 2 spent fuel pool has V relocated and stored dry in the four new fuett,k' p
storage modules in the Unit 3 pool.. The' present Technical Specifications allow for.
'j the storage of new fuel in'the spent fuel' pool serving the respective unit or in shipping containers ~. _

You are requested to review DFC's proposal and provide a written evaluation'of its j
..a
. acceptability.
It should be noted that, in
+
conjunction with DPC's September 12, 1975' request for modification of the Unit 3 Spent Fuel Pool, the staff conducted a review of the design'of the new storage racks. The Ideensea
-has provided additional data regarding the criticality analysis of new fuel stored in a dry environment.
