1.

All dimensions are design nominal values. Maximum and minimum dimensions are specified to bound variations in design nominal values among fuel assemblies within a given array/class.

2.

This assembly is known as QUAD+. It has four rectangular water cross segments dividing the assembly into four quadrants.

3.

For the SPC 9x9-5 fuel assembly, each fuel rod must meet either the 9x9E or the 9x9F set of limits or clad O.D., clad I.D., and pellet diameter.

4.

This assembly class contains 74 total rods; 66 full length rods and 8 partial length rods.

5.

Square, replacing nine fuel rods.

6.

Variable.

7.

This assembly contains 92 total fuel rods; 78 full length rods and 14 partial length rods.

8.

This assembly class contains 91 total fuel rods; 83 full length rods and 8 partial length rods.

9.

One diamond-shaped water rod replacing the four center fuel rods and four rectangular water rods dividing the assembly into four quadrants.

10.

These rods may also be sealed at both ends and contain ZR material in lieu of water.

11.

Not used.

12.

When loading fuel assemblies classified as DAMAGED FUEL, all assemblies in the MPC are limited to 4.0 wt.% U-235.

13.

When loading fuel assemblies classified as DAMAGED FUEL, all assemblies in the MPC are limited to 4.6 wt.% U-235.

14.

In accordance with the definition of UNDAMAGED FUEL, certain assemblies may be limited to 3.3 wt.% U-235. When loading these fuel assemblies, all assemblies in the MPC are limited to 3.3 wt.% U-235.

15.

These fuel designs do not have water rods, but instead contain solid zirc rods.

16.

Any number of fuel rods in an assembly can be replaced by irradiated or unirradiated Steel or Zirconia rods. If the rods are irradiated, the site specific dose and dose rate analyses performed under 10 CFR 72.212 should include considerations for the presence of such rods.

17.

Any number of fuel rods in an assembly can be contain BLEU fuel. If the BLEU rods are present, the site specific dose and dose rate analyses performed under 10 CFR 72.212 should include considerations for the presence of such rods.

Approved Contents 2.0 Certificate of Compliance No. 1032 Amendment No. 5 Appendix B 2-21 2.3 Decay Heat Limits This section provides the limits on fuel assembly decay heat for storage in the HI-STORM FW System. The method to verify compliance, including examples, is provided in Chapter 13 of the HI-STORM FW FSAR.

2.3.1 Fuel Loading Decay Heat Limits Tables 2.3-1A, 2.3-1B, and 2.3-1C provide the maximum allowable decay heat per fuel storage location for MPC-37. Tables 2.3-2A and 2.3-2B provide the maximum allowable decay heat per fuel storage location for MPC-89. No drying time limits are required for decay heat values meeting the limits in these tables when using FHD to dry moderate or high burnup fuel and when using VDS to dry moderate burnup fuel. Drying time limits apply when using VDS to dry high burnup fuel with decay heat values meeting the limits in these tables. Tables 2.3-3 and 2.3-4 provide the maximum allowable decay heat per fuel storage location for MPC-37 and MPC-89, respectively, with no drying time limits imposed, when using VDS to dry high burnup fuel. Table 2.3-5 provides the maximum allowable decay heat per fuel storage location for the MPC-32ML for both FHD and VDS drying. The per cell limits in these tables apply to cells containing undamaged fuel or damaged fuel in DFCs/DFIs or fuel debris in DFCs.

Figures 2.3-1 through 2.3-14 provide alternative loading patterns for the MPC-37 and MPC-89, with undamaged fuel and a combination of undamaged fuel and damaged fuel in DFCs/DFIs and fuel debris in DFCs.

The per cell limits in these figures are applicable when using vacuum drying or FHD to dry moderate or high burnup fuel in accordance with Table 3-1 of Appendix A of the CoC. The MPC-37 patterns are based on the fuel length to be stored in the MPC, see Table 2.3-6.

A minor deviation from the prescribed loading pattern in an MPCs permissible contents to allow one slightly thermally-discrepant fuel assembly per quadrant to be loaded as long as the peak cladding temperature for the MPC remains below the ISG-11 Rev 3 requirements is permitted for essential dry storage campaigns to support decommissioning.

Approved Contents 2.0 Certificate of Compliance No. 1032 Amendment No. 5 Appendix B 2-39 2.4 Burnup Credit Criticality control during loading of the MPC-37 is achieved through either meeting the soluble boron limits in LCO 3.3.1 OR verifying that the assemblies meet the minimum burnup requirements in Table 2.4-1.

For those spent fuel assemblies that need to meet the burnup requirements specified in Table 2.4-1, a burnup verification shall be performed in accordance with either Method A OR Method B described below.

Method A: Burnup Verification Through Quantitative Burnup Measurement For each assembly in the MPC-37 where burnup credit is required, the minimum burnup is determined from the burnup requirement applicable to the loading configuration chosen for the cask (see Table 2.4-1). A measurement is then performed that confirms that the fuel assembly burnup exceeds this minimum burnup. The measurement technique may be calibrated to the reactor records for a representative set of assemblies. The assembly burnup value to be compared with the minimum required burnup should be the measured burnup value as adjusted by reducing the value by a combination of the uncertainties in the calibration method and the measurement itself.

Method B: Burnup Verification Through an Administrative Procedure and Qualitative Measurements Depending on the location in the basket, assemblies loaded into a specific MPC-37 can either be fresh, or have to meet a single minimum burnup value. The assembly burnup value to be compared with the minimum required burnup should be the reactor record burnup value as adjusted by reducing the value by the uncertainties in the reactor record value. An administrative procedure shall be established that prescribes the following steps, which shall be performed for each cask loading:

Based on a review of the reactor records, all assemblies in the spent fuel pool that have a burnup that is below the minimum required burnup of the loading curve for the cask to be loaded are identified.

After the cask loading, but before the release for shipment of the cask, the presence and location of all those identified assemblies is verified, except for those assemblies that have been loaded as fresh assemblies into the cask.

An independent, third-party verification of the loading process, including the fuel selection process and generation of the fuel move instructions Additionally, for all assemblies to be loaded that are required to meet a minimum burnup, a qualitative verification shall be performed that verifies that the assembly is not a fresh assembly.

MPC Enclosure Vessel Subsection NCA General Requirements.

Requires preparation of a Design Specification, Design Report, Overpressure Protection Report, Certification of Construction Report, Data Report, and other administrative controls for an ASME Code stamped vessel.

Because the MPC is not an ASME Code stamped vessel, none of the specifications, reports, certificates, or other general requirements specified by NCA are required. In lieu of a Design Specification and Design Report, the HI-STORM FSAR includes the design criteria, service conditions, and load combinations for the design and operation of the MPCs as well as the results of the stress analyses to demonstrate that applicable Code stress limits are met. Additionally, the fabricator is not required to have an ASME-certified QA program. All important-to-safety activities are governed by the NRC-approved Holtec QA program.

Because the cask components are not certified to the Code, the terms Certificate Holder and Inspector are not germane to the manufacturing of NRC-certified cask components. To eliminate ambiguity, the responsibilities assigned to the Certificate Holder in the Code, as applicable, shall be interpreted to apply to the NRC Certificate of Compliance (CoC) holder (and by extension, to the component fabricator) if the requirement must be fulfilled. The Code term Inspector means the QA/QC personnel of the CoC holder and its vendors assigned to oversee and inspect the manufacturing process.

MPC Enclosure Vessel NB-1100 Statement of requirements for Code stamping of components.

MPC Enclosure Vessel is designed and will be fabricated in accordance with ASME Code,Section III, Subsection NB to the maximum practical extent, but Code stamping is not required.

MPC basket supports and lift lugs NB-1130 NB-1132.2(d) requires that the first connecting weld of a non-pressure retaining structural attachment to a component shall be considered part of the component unless the weld is more than 2t from the pressure retaining portion of the component, where t is the nominal thickness of the pressure retaining material.

NB-1132.2(e) requires that the first connecting weld of a welded nonstructural attachment to a component shall conform to NB-4430 if the connecting weld is within 2t from the pressure retaining portion of the component.

The lugs that are used exclusively for lifting an empty MPC are welded to the inside of the pressure-retaining MPC shell, but are not designed in accordance with Subsection NB. The lug-to-Enclosure Vessel Weld is required to meet the stress limits of Reg. Guide 3.61 in lieu of Subsection NB of the Code.

MPC Enclosure Vessel NB-2000 Requires materials to be supplied by ASME-approved material supplier.

Materials will be supplied by Holtec approved suppliers with Certified Material Test Reports (CMTRs) in accordance with NB-2000 requirements.

MPC Enclosure Vessel NB-2121 Provides permitted material specification for pressure-retaining material, which must conform to Section II, Part D, Tables 2A and 2B Certain duplex stainless steels are not included in Section II, Part D, Tables 2A and 2B. These stainless steel alloys are evaluated in the HI-STORM FW FSAR and meet the required design criteria for use in the HI-STORM FW system.

MPC Enclosure Vessel NB-3100 NF-3100 Provides requirements for determining design loading conditions, such as pressure, temperature, and mechanical loads.

These requirements are subsumed by the HI-STORM FW FSAR, serving as the Design Specification, which establishes the service conditions and load combinations for the storage system.

MPC Enclosure Vessel NB-4120 NB-4121.2 and NF-4121.2 provide requirements for repetition of tensile or impact tests for material subjected to heat treatment during fabrication or installation.

In-shop operations of short duration that apply heat to a component, such as plasma cutting of plate stock, welding, machining, and coating are not, unless explicitly stated by the Code, defined as heat treatment operations.

5018074 Attachment 3

Design Features 3.0 Certificate of Compliance No. 1032 Amendment No. 5 Appendix B 3-5 TABLE 3-1 List of ASME Code Alternatives for Multi-Purpose Canisters (MPCs)

MPC Enclosure Vessel NB-4220 Requires certain forming tolerances to be met for cylindrical, conical, or spherical shells of a vessel.

The cylindricity measurements on the rolled shells are not specifically recorded in the shop travelers, as would be the case for a Code-stamped pressure vessel. Rather, the requirements on inter-component clearances (such as the MPC-to-transfer cask) are guaranteed through fixture-controlled manufacturing. The fabrication specification and shop procedures ensure that all dimensional design objectives, including inter-component annular clearances are satisfied. The dimensions required to be met in fabrication are chosen to meet the functional requirements of the dry storage components. Thus, although the post-forming Code cylindricity requirements are not evaluated for compliance directly, they are indirectly satisfied (actually exceeded) in the final manufactured components.

MPC Enclosure Vessel NB-4122 Implies that with the exception of studs, bolts, nuts and heat exchanger tubes, CMTRs must be traceable to a specific piece of material in a component.

MPCs are built in lots. Material traceability on raw materials to a heat number and corresponding CMTR is maintained by Holtec through markings on the raw material. Where material is cut or processed, markings are transferred accordingly to assure traceability. As materials are assembled into the lot of MPCs being manufactured, documentation is maintained to identify the heat numbers of materials being used for that item in the multiple MPCs being manufactured under that lot. A specific item within a specific MPC will have a number of heat numbers identified as possibly being used for the item in that particular MPC of which one or more of those heat numbers (and corresponding CMTRS) will have actually been used. All of the heat numbers identified will comply with the requirements for the particular item.

MPC Enclosure Vessel and Lid NB-6111 All completed pressure retaining systems shall be pressure tested.

The MPC vessel is welded in the field following fuel assembly loading.

Pressure tests (Hydrostatic or pneumatic) will not be performed because lack of accessibility for leakage inspections precludes a meaningful pressure retention capability test. The different models of MPCs available in the industry are not subject to pressure tests because of the dose to the crew, the proven ineffectiveness of the pressure tests to reveal any leaks and the far more effective tests performed on the MPC confinement boundary, such as: All MPC enclosure vessel welds (except closure ring and vent/drain cover plate) are inspected by volumetric examination. All MPC shell and baseplate materials are UT tested.

Finally,the MPC lid-to-shell weld shall be verified by progressive PT examination. PT must include the root and final layers and each approximately 3/8 inch of weld depth.

The inspection results, including relevant findings (indications) shall be made a permanent part of the users records by video, photographic, of other means which provide an equivalent record of weld integrity. The video or photographic records should be taken during the final interpretation period described in ASME Section V, Article 6, T-676. The vent/drain cover plate and the closure ring welds are confirmed by liquid penetrant examination. The inspection of the weld must be performed by qualified personnel and shall meet the acceptance requirements of ASME Code Section III, NB-5350.

MPC Enclosure Vessel NB-7000 Vessels are required to have overpressure protection.

No overpressure protection is provided.

Function of MPC enclosure vessel is to contain radioactive contents under normal, off-normal, and accident conditions of storage. MPC vessel is designed to withstand maximum internal pressure considering 100% fuel rod failure and maximum accident temperatures.

Design Features 3.0 Certificate of Compliance No. 1032 Amendment No. 5 Appendix B 3-10 3.0 DESIGN FEATURES (continued) 3.4 Site-Specific Parameters and Analyses Site-specific parameters and analyses that will require verification by the system user are, as a minimum, as follows:

1.

The temperature of 80o F is the maximum average yearly temperature. A Sites yearly average ambient temperature may be used for site-specific analysis.

2.

The allowed temperature extremes, averaged over a 3-day period, shall be greater than -40o F and less than 125o F.

3.

a.

The resultant horizontal acceleration (vectorial sum of two horizontal Zero Period Accelerations (ZPAs) at a three-dimensional seismic site), aH, and vertical ZPA, aV, on the top surface of the ISFSI pad, expressed as fractions of a, shall satisfy the following inequalities:

aH f (1 - aV); and aH r (1 - aV) / h where f is the Coulomb friction coefficient for the cask/ISFSI pad interface, r is the radius of the cask, and h is the height of the cask center-of-gravity above the ISFSI pad surface. Unless demonstrated by appropriate testing that a higher coefficient of friction value is appropriate for a specific ISFSI, the value used shall be 0.53. If acceleration time-histories on the ISFSI pad surface are available, aH and aV may be the coincident values of the instantaneous net horizontal and vertical accelerations. If instantaneous accelerations are used, the inequalities shall be evaluated at each time step in the acceleration time history over the total duration of the seismic event.

If this static equilibrium based inequality cannot be met, a dynamic analysis of the cask/ISFSI pad assemblage with appropriate recognition of soil/structure interaction effects shall be performed to ensure that the casks will not tip over or undergo excessive sliding under the sites Design Basis Earthquake.

5018074 Attachment 3

Design Features 3.0 Certificate of Compliance No. 1032 Amendment No. 5 Appendix B 3-11

b. Under environmental conditions that may degrade the pad/cask interface friction (such as due to icing) the response of the casks under the sites Design Basis Earthquake shall be established using the best estimate of the friction coefficient in an appropriate analysis model. The analysis should demonstrate that the earthquake will not result in cask tipover or cause excessive sliding such that impact between casks could occur. Any impact between casks should be considered an accident for which the maximum total deflection, d, in the active fuel region of the basket panels shall be limited by the following inequality: d 0.005 l, where I is the basket cell inside dimension.

4.

The maximum permitted depth of submergence under water shall not exceed 125 feet.

5.

The maximum permissible velocity of floodwater, V, for a flood of height, h, shall be the lesser of V1 or V2, where:

V1 = (1.876 W*)1/2 / h V2 = (1.876 f W*/ D h)1/2 and W* is the apparent (buoyant weight) of the loaded overpack (in pounds force), D is the diameter of the overpack (in feet), and f is the interface coefficient of friction between the ISFSI pad and the overpack, as used in step 3.a above. Use the height of the overpack, H, if h>H.

6.

The potential for fire and explosion while handling a loaded OVERPACK or TRANSFER CASK shall be addressed, based on site-specific considerations. The user shall demonstrate that the site-specific potential for fire is bounded by the fire conditions analyzed by the Certificate Holder, or an analysis of the site-specific fire considerations shall be performed.

7.

The user shall demonstrate that the ISFSI pad parameters used in the non-mechanistic tipover analysis are bounding for the site or a site specific non-mechanistic tipover analysis shall be performed using the dynamic model described in FSAR Section 3.4. The maximum total deflection, d, in the active fuel region of the basket panels shall be limited by the following inequality: d 0.005 l, where l is basket cell inside dimension.

8.

In cases where engineered features (i.e., berms and shield walls) are used to ensure that the requirements of 10CFR72.104(a) are met, such features are to be considered important-to-safety and must be evaluated to determine the applicable quality assurance category.

9.

LOADING OPERATIONS, TRANSPORT OPERATIONS, and UNLOADING OPERATIONS shall only be conducted with working area ambient temperatures 0o F.

10.

For those users whose site-specific design basis includes an event or 5018074 Attachment 3

Design Features 3.0 Certificate of Compliance No. 1032 Amendment No. 5 Appendix B 3-12 events (e.g., flood) that result in the blockage of any OVERPACK inlet or outlet air ducts for an extended period of time (i.e, longer than the total Completion Time of LCO 3.1.2), an analysis or evaluation may be performed to demonstrate adequate heat removal is available for the duration of the event. Adequate heat removal is defined as fuel cladding temperatures remaining below the short term temperature limit. If the analysis or evaluation is not performed, or if fuel cladding temperature limits are unable to be demonstrated by analysis or evaluation to remain below the short term temperature limit for the duration of the event, provisions shall be established to provide alternate means of cooling to accomplish this objective.

11.

Users shall establish procedural and/or mechanical barriers to ensure that during LOADING OPERATIONS and UNLOADING OPERATIONS, either the fuel cladding is covered by water, or the MPC is filled with an inert gas.

12.

The entire haul route shall be evaluated to ensure that the route can support the weight of the loaded system and its conveyance.

13.

The loaded system and its conveyance shall be evaluated to ensure under the site specific Design Basis Earthquake the system does not tipover or slide off the haul route.

14.

The HI-STORM FW/HI-TRAC VW stack which occurs during MPC TRANSFER shall be evaluated to ensure under the site specific Design Basis Earthquake the system does not tipover. A probabilistic risk assessment cannot be used to rule out the occurrence of the earthquake during MPC TRANSFER.
