! N (2) Description R . . .

I Steel encased lead shielded casks for low specific activity material. The I R casks are right circular cylinders with'a 77.25-inch ID by 80.25-inch IH l cavity. The walls of,the casks contain a lead thickness ranging from 1.25 to  :

, y 1.88 inches encased in 0.38-inch thick inner steel shell and 0.88-inch thick l

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

( ( plates with thickness of 2.0 inches. The primary cask lid is secured to the N cylindrical cask body by eight,1-1/4-inch rachet binders. An optional 8 secondary lid is centered in the primary lid and is secured to the primary l l lid with eight, 3/4-inch studs and nuts. Each: lid is provided with a q Neoprene gasket seal. The casks may be provided with an optional 12 gauge -

i stainless steel liner (seal welded'along all edges), an optional lid vent line with pipe plug, and an optional 3/4-inch drain line and pipe plug. The l casks are provided with four equally spaced lifting / tie-down devices. The

[ primary lid is provided with three lifting lugs and the optional secondary i lid is provided with one lifting lug. The casks gross weights range from I 51,600 to 58,400 pounds.

APPROVAL RECORD Hodel No. NVPAC 14/210L, NUPAC 14/210H, CNSI 14-215H Series A, LN 14-195L, and LN 14-195H Packages Certificate of Compliance No. 9176 Revision No. 8 By application dated December 21, 1992, Pacific Nuclear requested an amendment to Certificate of Compliance No. 9176, to include an optional lid and an optional drain on the removable shield insert. Use of the removable shield insert was appro/ed in Revision No. 7 of the Certificate.

Condition No. 7 of the Certificate limits the maximum gross weight of the contents, secondary containers, shoring, and optional shield insert to 20,000 pounds. The use of the optional lid does not affect the allowable payload weight. Since the shield insert does not serve a containment function, the optional drain line is acceptable.

These changes do not affect the ability of the packages to meet the requirements of 10 CFR Part 71.
