Description s

ll f

The ll 1

Steel encased lead shielded casks for low specific activity material.

I casks are right circular cylinders with a 77.25-inch 10 by 80.25-inch IH ll 4

N cavity. The walls of the casks contain a lead thickne.s's ranging from 1.25 to 11

[h N

1.88 inches encased in 0.38-inch thick inner steel shell and 0.88-inch thick i

l outer steel shell. The top cover and cask bottom are made up of two steel i

plates with thickness of.2.0 inches. The primary cask lid is secured to the gl l

cylindrical cask body by eight,1-1/4-inch rachet binders. An optional l l E

secondary lid is cer.tered in the primary lid and is secured to the primary l l

[i l

lid with eight, 3/4-inch studs and nuts.

Each'. lid is provided with a Neoprene gasket seal. The casks may be provided with an optional 12 gauge g

stainless steel liner'(seal: welded.along all edges), an optional lid vent i

i i

line with pipe plug, and an optional 3/4-inch drain line and pipe plug.

The i

g casks are provided with four equally spaced lifting / tie-down devices. The i

i R

primary lid is provided with three lifting lugs and the optional secondary I

l lid is provided with one lifting lug.

The casks gross weights range from I

y 51,600 to 58,400 pounds.

APPROVAL RECORD Model No. NUPAC 14/210L, HUPAC 14/210H, CNSI 14-215 Series A, LN 14-195L, and LN 14-195H Packages Certificate of Compliance No. 9176 Revision No. 9 s

By application dated January 18, 1993, Chem-Nuclear requested an amendment to Certificate of Compliance No. 9176, to authorize use of a removable shield insert.

The shield insert is shown in Chem-Nuclear Drawing C-119-B-0017 Revision 2.

The estimated maximum weight of the proposed shield insert is approximately 7900 pounds.

The casks are licensed for a maximum payload weight of 20,000 pounds. The weight of the payload includes weight of the contents, secondary containers, and shoring, as well as the shield insert.

The insert will be used for shielding as required to meet the external radiation standards for packages transported as exclusive use.

Radiation measurements will be performed prior to each shipment, as specified in the operating procedures for the package.

The Certificate of Compliance has been conditioned to authorize the optional use of the shield insert in Model No.

CNSI 14-215 Series A.

The amendment does not affect the ability of the package to meet the requirements of 10 CFR Part 71.
