The casks are right circular cylinders 81-1/2 inches high by 81-3/4 f

!g 1 (or 81-1/2) inches in diameter. The cask cavities are 73-3/8 inches lI l

li high by 75-1/2 inches in diameter. The cask side walls consists of a ,K l il 3/8-inch thick inner steel shell, a 1-7/8-(or 1-3/4-) inch lead shell, ik l

}j and a 7/8-inch thick outer steel shell. The base is comprised of two, 2-inch thick steel plates welded together to form a 4-inch thick base j y l

M which is integrally welded to the inner and outer steel shells of the 'g l

-1 side wall. A steel flange is welded to the inner and outer steel 3 R

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 gasket located between the lid and steel flange, positive closure of j

l J the lid is accomplished by eight,1-3/4-inch rachet binders. The lid . lg r l i

' %1 contains a centrally located shield plug comprised of two, 2-inch lE thick steel plates and one,1-inch thick steel plate stepped and it I

welded. The shield plug is sealed by a Neoprene gasket, and eight, fd 3/4-inch studs and nuts are used to provide positive closure. The j jy packagings are constructed of A-516, Grade 70, carbon steel.

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 Charles E.
