9 ENVIRONMENTAL' IMPACT APPRAISAL If, in a postulated fuel cask accident, the cask and its associated holding device are assumed to tip and fall into the SFP, 76 fuel assemblies may be damaged. Resulting thyroid and whole body doses will be within the exposure guidelines of 10 CFR Part 100 for 5 percentile meteorology and conservative l

es'timates of fission product releases, as discussed in the Safety Evaluation Report, and would result in less than 1 rem to the thyroid for 50 percentile i

(realistic) meteorology and best estimate fission product releases. This l

is not significantly greater than the expected consequences of other accidents previously evaluated in the Oconee FES. Radioactive effluent releases from other postulated fuel handling accidents remain unchanged from those pre-

['

sented in the FES of March 1972.
