Steel encased, lead shielded casks for low specific activity material.
f l
q The casks are right circular cylinders 81-1/2 inches high by 81-3/4
!g 1
(or 81-1/2) inches in diameter.
The cask cavities are 73-3/8 inches lI l
high by 75-1/2 inches in diameter. The cask side walls consists of a
,K i
ll il 3/8-inch thick inner steel shell, a 1-7/8-(or 1-3/4-) inch lead shell, ik and a 7/8-inch thick outer steel shell.
The base is comprised of two, j
}j l
2-inch thick steel plates welded together to form a 4-inch thick base y
l M
which is integrally welded to the inner and outer steel shells of the
'g
-1 side wall.
A steel flange is welded to the inner and outer steel R
l 3
1!
shells of the side wall at the top.
The lid is comprised of two, 2-inch thick steel plates, which are stepped and welded together to mate j
with the steel flange. The cask closure is sealed by a Neoprene j
J gasket located between the lid and steel flange, positive closure of l
. lg l i the lid is accomplished by eight,1-3/4-inch rachet binders.
The lid r
contains a centrally located shield plug comprised of two, 2-inch lE 1
thick steel plates and one,1-inch thick steel plate stepped and itI f
welded.
The shield plug is sealed by a Neoprene gasket, and eight, j
d 3/4-inch studs and nuts are used to provide positive closure.
The j
packagings are constructed of A-516, Grade 70, carbon steel.
The
'g outer shell will have a minimum yield strength of 46,000 psi, p

Docket No. 71-9151 i
By application dated December 7,1984, as supplemented January 11, May 7 and June 14, 1985, NUS Process Services requested an amendment to Certificate of Compliance No. 9151 to permit the fabrication and use of an optional 28.75-inch secondary lid on the Model No. NUS14-170 Series 1 package (cask).
l l
The applicant has shown by comparison to a previously approved package l
(DocketNo. 71-9159) that increasing the secondary lid from a 15.75-inch diameter to 28.75-inch diameter will have no significant effect on the ability of the package to meet the requirements of 10 CFR Part 71.
t This change will not effect the ability of the package to meet the requirements of 10 CFR Part 71.
It is noted that the applicant uses the same procedures on similar packagings for leak testing (WM-011) and gamma scanning (WM-013), however, the procedures carry different revision levels.
This certificate has been revised to indicate the specific revision level approved for the NUS14-170 Series 1, package, ff _ A h
