The new fuel' storage. facility;is located on;the~ refueling )

floor ? of the ' reactor building -(see, Figure 1.2-12) . The  !

reactor building is'a seismic-category I building protecting. l the new fuel from seismic- events and externally generated- l missiles.- There are no'non-seismic systems in the vicinity of the new-fual storage facility. .

~ including its associated hand 1.ng tool, dropped from a  !

height of 6 feet bounds tho' range of'all possible load drops

-from all possible heights.T For additional guidance on the t required bounding. analysis, see SRP'Section 9.1.2, Item j Q III.2.e.(9.1.2).

RESPONSE TO 430.184 j-  :!

i As discussed near the and of. Subsection 9.1.4.3, light loads such as the blade guide,- fuel support casting, control rod s

l or control rod: guide. tube' weigh considerably less than a- 1 fuel bundle and are administrative 1y controlled-to eliminate 1 the movement of any' light. load,over the fuel. pool above the elevation required for fuel assembly . handling. Thus, the kinetic energy of any light,, load would be less:than a fuel bundle and would have less anage induced.- ,

. The.: shipping cask'is placed in' a walled of f and drained; The drained volume is, j

r portion of the: spent fuel pool.

-l flooded, and the Seismic category I gates removede . The ' ,;

spent fuel is then transferred.. This process is reversed; to i remove.the cask. The ratio of the-two volumes'is such that '!

f ailure of the . gates 'will.. not lower the water level enough I to be unacceptable. Interlocks on the= main crane prevent j.

t the shipping cask.from being carried over any,other portion- '

~ '!

of the spent fuel storage pool. l QUESTION 430.187 clarify'whether there is.a) an interconnecting fuel' transfer I canal capable of being isolated from the. fuel-' poolo and . 1 adjacent cask _ loading' area, and b)'any high-energy. piping'or j rotating machinery in the vicinity-of.the fuel storage 1 pools. Also, clarify whether_the. racks.areidesigned to i preclude inadvertent placement of a fuel. assembly-;in; other-than prescribed locat:ons.(9.1.2)  ;

RESPONSE TO 430.187-(a) AsL shown in Figure 1.2-12 the spent fuel pool and-adjacent cask loading area are se,parated by seismic category

' I gates.- These gates isolate the-cask 1 1oading' area'from the-spent fuel pool.

(b)- No high energy or moderate energy piping. or; rotating machinery are located in the vicinity _of the spent fuel pool or cask loading area on.the refueling-floor.. .

( b The Radweste Building is a reinforced concrete-structure designed-i

(- / -as Seismic Category 1, consist ing of a subst ruct ure.13. 8 set ers below grade and a super- structure 16' meters.above grade. This i building does not contain safety related equipment and is not ,

-contiguous with other plant structures except through a. pipe  !

tunnel. In casi of a flood, the building substructure serves.as a ['

large sump which can collect and hold any . leakage within the building. Also, the medium and large radwaste tankst are housed in1 ,

sealed compartments which are designed to contain any spillage or i leakage from tanks that may rupt ure. The piping that. transfer the liquid waste from the other buildings traverse through a sealed 5 water-tight tunnel to the ~ Radw&ste ' Building at an elevation of

-3,500 mm, which is 3 meters above the Radwaste Building basement j slap.-This tunnel connects to the Turbine and Reactor Buildings. ,

at the same elevation.
