Definitions 1.1 USE AND APPLICATION Definitions

NOTE ----------------------------------------------------------

The defined terms of this section appear in capitalized type and are applicable throughout these Technical Specifications and Bases.

Term Definition ACTIONS ACTIONS shall be that part of a Specification that prescribes Required Actions to be taken under designated Conditions within specified Completion Times.

BLEU FUEL Blended Low Enriched Uranium (BLEU) FUEL material is generated by down-blending highly enriched uranium (HEU). Because the feedstock contains both unirradiated and irradiated HEU, fresh BLEU fuel has elevated concentrations of U-232, U-234, and U-236.

CONTROL COMPONENTS (CCs) Authorized CCs include Burnable Poison Rod Assemblies (BPRAs), Thimble Plug Assemblies (TPAs), Control Rod Assemblies (CRAs), Control Element Assemblies (CEAs), Control Spiders, Rod Cluster Control Assemblies (RCCAs), Axial Power Shaping Rod Assemblies (APSRAs), Orifice Rod Assemblies (ORAs), Peripheral Power Suppression Assemblies (PPSAs), Vibration Suppression Inserts (VSIs), Flux Suppression Inserts (FSIs), Burnable Absorber Assemblies (BAAs), Neutron Source Assemblies (NSAs) and Neutron Sources. CCs not explicitly listed are also authorized as long as external materials are limited to zirconium alloys, nickel alloys, and stainless steels. Non-fuel hardware that are positioned within the fuel assembly after the fuel assembly is discharged from the core such as Guide Tubes or Instrument Tube Tie Rods or Anchors, Guide Tube Inserts, BPRA Spacer Plates or devices that are positioned and operated within the fuel assembly during reactor operation such as those listed above are also considered to be authorized CCs.

(continued)

NUHOMS EOS System Amendment 1 Technical Specifications 1-1

Definitions 1.1 1.1 Definitions (continued)

DAMAGED FUEL DAMAGED FUEL assemblies are PWR assemblies containing fuel rods with known or suspected cladding defects greater than hairline cracks or pinhole leaks. The extent of damage in the fuel assembly, including non-cladding damage, is to be limited so that a fuel assembly maintains its configuration for normal and off-normal conditions.

DAMAGED FUEL assemblies shall also contain top and bottom end fittings. DAMAGED FUEL assemblies may also contain missing or partial fuel rods.

DRY SHIELDED An EOS-37PTH DSC and an EOS-89BTH DSC are CANISTER (DSC) sealed containers that provide confinement of fuel in an inert atmosphere.

FAILED FUEL FAILED FUEL is defined as ruptured fuel rods, severed fuel rods, loose fuel pellets, fuel fragments, or fuel assemblies that may not maintain configuration for normal or off-normal conditions.

FAILED FUEL may contain breached rods, grossly breached rods, or other defects such as missing or partial rods, missing grid spacers, or damaged spacers to the extent that the assembly may not maintain configuration for normal or off-normal conditions. FAILED FUEL shall be stored in a failed fuel canister (FFC).

FUEL CLASS A FUEL CLASS includes fuel assemblies of the same array size for a particular type of fuel design.

For example, WEV 17x17, WEO 17x17, and ANP Advanced MK BW 17x17 fuel assemblies are part of a WE 17x17 FUEL CLASS.

HORIZONTAL An HSM is a reinforced concrete structure for STORAGE MODULE (HSM) storage of a loaded DSC at a spent fuel storage installation. Where the term HSM is used without distinction, this term shall apply to both the EOS-HSM and HSM-MX.

The term EOS-HSM refers to the base unit for storage of a single DSC as a single piece (EOS-HSM) or as a split base (EOS-HSMS).

The term MATRIX (HSM-MX) refers to the two-tiered staggered structure for storage of the DSCs.

INDEPENDENT SPENT FUEL The facility within a perimeter fence licensed for STORAGE INSTALLATION storage of spent fuel within HSMs.

(ISFSI)

INTACT FUEL Fuel assembly with no known or suspected cladding defects in excess of pinhole leaks or hairline cracks, and with no missing rods.

LOADING OPERATIONS LOADING OPERATIONS include all licensed activities on a DSC while it is being loaded with fuel assemblies. LOADING OPERATIONS begin when the first fuel assembly is placed in the DSC and end when the TC has been placed horizontal on the transfer trailer.

LOW-ENRICHED OUTLIER FUEL LOW-ENRICHED OUTLIER FUEL is PWR fuel with (LEOF) enrichments below the minimum enrichment specified in Table 7A.

RECONSTITUTED FUEL ASSEMBLY A RECONSTITUTED FUEL ASSEMBLY is a fuel assembly where one or more fuel rods are replaced by low enriched uranium or natural uranium fuel rods or non-fuel rods.

STORAGE OPERATIONS STORAGE OPERATIONS include all licensed activities that are performed at the ISFSI, while a DSC containing fuel assemblies is located in an HSM on the storage pad within the ISFSI perimeter.

STORAGE OPERATIONS do not include DSC transfer between the TC and the HSM.

NUHOMS EOS System Amendment 1 Technical Specifications 1-3

Definitions 1.1 1.1 Definitions (continued)

TRANSFER CASK (TC) A TRANSFER CASK (TC) (EOS-TC108, EOS-TC125, EOS-TC135) consists of a licensed NUHOMS EOS System TC. The TC will be placed on a transfer trailer for movement of a DSC to the HSM.

TRANSFER OPERATIONS TRANSFER OPERATIONS include all licensed activities involving the movement of a TC loaded with a DSC containing fuel assemblies.

TRANSFER OPERATIONS begin when the TC has been placed horizontal on the transfer trailer ready for TRANSFER OPERATIONS and end when the DSC is located in an HSM on the storage pad within the ISFSI perimeter. TRANSFER OPERATIONS include DSC transfer between the TC and the HSM.

UNLOADING OPERATIONS UNLOADING OPERATIONS include all licensed activities on a DSC to unload fuel assemblies.

UNLOADING OPERATIONS begin when the DSC is no longer horizontal on the transfer trailer and end when the last fuel assembly has been removed from the DSC.

NUHOMS EOS System Amendment 1 Technical Specifications 1-4

Logical Connectors 1.2 1.0 USE AND APPLICATION Logical Connectors PURPOSE The purpose of this section is to explain the meaning of logical connectors.

Logical connectors are used in Technical Specifications (TS) to discriminate between, and yet connect, discrete Conditions, Required Actions, Completion Times, Surveillances, and Frequencies. The only logical connectors that appear in TS are AND and OR. The physical arrangement of these connectors constitutes logical conventions with specific meanings.

BACKGROUND Several levels of logic may be used to state Required Actions. These levels are identified by the placement (or nesting) of the logical connectors and by the number assigned to each Required Action. The first level of logic is identified by the first digit of the number assigned to a Required Action and the placement of the logical connector in the first level of nesting (i.e., left justified with the number of the Required Action).

The successive levels of logic are identified by additional digits of the Required Action number and by successive indentions of the logical connectors.

When logical connectors are used to state a Condition, Completion Time, Surveillance, or Frequency, only the first level of logic is used, and the logical connector is left justified with the statement of the Condition, Completion Time, Surveillance, or Frequency.

EXAMPLES The following examples illustrate the use of logical connectors:

EXAMPLE 1.2-1 ACTIONS:

COMPLETION CONDITION REQUIRED ACTION TIME A. LCO (Limiting A.1 Verify Condition for AND Operation) not met.

A.2 Restore In this example the logical connector AND is used to indicate that when in Condition A, both Required Actions A.1 and A.2 must be completed.

(continued)

NUHOMS EOS System Amendment 1 Technical Specifications 1-5

Logical Connectors 1.2 1.2 Logical Connectors (continued)

EXAMPLES EXAMPLE 1.2-2 (continued)

ACTIONS:

COMPLETION CONDITION REQUIRED ACTION TIME A. LCO not met. A.1 Stop OR A.2 A.2.1 Verify AND A.2.2 A.2.2.1 Reduce OR A.2.2.2 Perform OR A.3 Remove This example represents a more complicated use of logical connectors.

Required Actions A.1, A.2, and A.3 are alternative choices, only one of which must be performed as indicated by the use of the logical connector OR and the left justified placement. Any one of these three Actions may be chosen. If A.2 is chosen, then both A.2.1 and A.2.2 must be performed as indicated by the logical connector AND. Required Action A.2.2 is met by performing A.2.2.1 or A.2.2.2. The indented position of the logical connector OR indicates that A.2.2.1 and A.2.2.2 are alternative choices, only one of which must be performed.

NUHOMS EOS System Amendment 1 Technical Specifications 1-6

Completion Times 1.3 1.0 USE AND APPLICATION Completion Times PURPOSE The purpose of this section is to establish the Completion Time convention and to provide guidance for its use.

BACKGROUND Limiting Conditions for Operation (LCOs) specify the lowest functional capability or performance levels of equipment required for safe operation of the facility. The ACTIONS associated with an LCO state Conditions that typically describe the ways in which the requirements of the LCO are not met. Specified with each stated Condition are Required Action(s) and Completion Times(s).

DESCRIPTION The Completion Time is the amount of time allowed for completing a Required Action. It is referenced to the time of discovery of a situation (e.g., equipment or variable not within limits) that requires entering an ACTIONS Condition unless otherwise specified, providing the facility is in a specified condition stated in the Applicability of the LCO. Required Actions must be completed prior to the expiration of the specified Completion Time. An ACTIONS Condition remains in effect and the Required Actions apply until the Condition no longer exists or the facility is not within the LCO Applicability.

Once a Condition has been entered, subsequent subsystems, components, or variables expressed in the Condition, discovered to be not within limits, will not result in separate entry into the Condition unless specifically stated. The Required Actions of the Condition continue to apply to each additional failure, with Completion Times based on initial entry into the Condition.

EXAMPLES The following examples illustrate the use of Completion Times with different types of Conditions and Changing Conditions.

EXAMPLE 1.3-1 ACTIONS CONDITION REQUIRED ACTION COMPLETION TIME B. Required Action B.1 Perform Action 12 hours1.388889e-4 days 0.00333 hours 1.984127e-5 weeks 4.566e-6 months and associated B.1 Completion AND Time not met.

NUHOMS EOS System Amendment 1 Technical Specifications 1-7

Completion Times 1.3 1.3 Completion Times (continued)

EXAMPLES Condition B has two Required Actions. Each Required Action has its own (continued) separate Completion Time. Each Completion Time is referenced to the time that Condition B is entered.

The Required Actions of Condition B are to complete action B.1 within 12 hours1.388889e-4 days 0.00333 hours 1.984127e-5 weeks 4.566e-6 months AND complete action B.2 within 36 hours4.166667e-4 days 0.01 hours 5.952381e-5 weeks 1.3698e-5 months . A total of 12 hours1.388889e-4 days 0.00333 hours 1.984127e-5 weeks 4.566e-6 months is allowed for completing action B.1 and a total of 36 hours4.166667e-4 days 0.01 hours 5.952381e-5 weeks 1.3698e-5 months (not 48 hours5.555556e-4 days 0.0133 hours 7.936508e-5 weeks 1.8264e-5 months ) is allowed for completing action B.2 from the time that Condition B was entered. If action B.1 is completed within 6 hours6.944444e-5 days 0.00167 hours 9.920635e-6 weeks 2.283e-6 months , the time allowed for completing action B.2 is the next 30 hours3.472222e-4 days 0.00833 hours 4.960317e-5 weeks 1.1415e-5 months because the total time allowed for completing action B.2 is 36 hours4.166667e-4 days 0.01 hours 5.952381e-5 weeks 1.3698e-5 months .

EXAMPLES EXAMPLE 1.3-2 ACTIONS CONDITION REQUIRED ACTION COMPLETION TIME A. One system not A.1 Restore system 7 days within limit. to within limit.

B. Required Action B.1 Perform Action 12 hours1.388889e-4 days 0.00333 hours 1.984127e-5 weeks 4.566e-6 months and associated B.1.

Completion Time AND not met.

B.2 Perform Action 36 hours4.166667e-4 days 0.01 hours 5.952381e-5 weeks 1.3698e-5 months B.2.

When a system is determined to not meet the LCO, Condition A is entered. If the system is not restored within 7 days, Condition B is also entered and the Completion Time clocks for Required Actions B.1 and B.2 start. If the system is restored after Condition B is entered, Condition A and B are exited, and therefore, the Required Actions of Condition B may be terminated.

ACTIONS

NOTE----------------------------------------------

Separate Condition entry is allowed for each component.

CONDITION REQUIRED ACTION COMPLETION TIME A. LCO not met. A.1 Restore 4 hours4.62963e-5 days 0.00111 hours 6.613757e-6 weeks 1.522e-6 months compliance with LCO.

B. Required Action B.1 Perform Action 6 hours6.944444e-5 days 0.00167 hours 9.920635e-6 weeks 2.283e-6 months and associated B.1.

Completion Time AND not met.

B.2 Perform Action 12 hours1.388889e-4 days 0.00333 hours 1.984127e-5 weeks 4.566e-6 months B.2.

The Note above the ACTIONS Table is a method of modifying how the Completion Time is tracked. If this method of modifying how the Completion Time is tracked was applicable only to a specific Condition, the Note would appear in that Condition rather than at the top of the ACTIONS Table.

The Note allows Condition A to be entered separately for each component, and Completion Times tracked on a per component basis.

When a component is determined to not meet the LCO, Condition A is entered and its Completion Time starts. If subsequent components are determined to not meet the LCO, Condition A is entered for each component and separate Completion Times start and are tracked for each component.

IMMEDIATE When Immediately is used as a Completion Time, the Required Action COMPLETION should be pursued without delay and in a controlled manner.

TIME NUHOMS EOS System Amendment 1 Technical Specifications 1-9

Frequency 1.4 1.0 USE AND APPLICATION Frequency PURPOSE The purpose of this section is to define the proper use and application of Frequency requirements DESCRIPTION Each Surveillance Requirement (SR) has a specified Frequency in which the Surveillance must be met in order to meet the associated Limiting Condition for Operation (LCO). An understanding of the correct application of the specified Frequency is necessary for compliance with the SR.

The "specified Frequency" is referred to throughout this section and each of the Specifications of Section 3.0, Limiting Condition for Operation (LCO) and Surveillance Requirement (SR) Applicability. The "specified Frequency" consists of the requirements of the Frequency column of each SR, as well as certain Notes in the Surveillance column that modify performance requirements.

Situations where a Surveillance could be required (i.e., its Frequency could expire), but where it is not possible or not desired that it be performed until sometime after the associated LCO is within its Applicability, represent potential SR 3.0.4 conflicts. To avoid these conflicts, the SR (i.e., the Surveillance or the Frequency) is stated such that it is only "required" when it can be and should be performed. With a SR satisfied, SR 3.0.4 imposes no restriction.

(continued)

NUHOMS EOS System Amendment 1 Technical Specifications 1-10

Frequency 1.4 1.4 Frequency (continued)

EXAMPLES The following examples illustrate the various ways that Frequencies are specified:

EXAMPLE 1.4-1 SURVEILLANCE REQUIREMENTS SURVEILLANCE FREQUENCY Verify pressure within limit. 12 hours1.388889e-4 days 0.00333 hours 1.984127e-5 weeks 4.566e-6 months Example 1.4-1 contains the type of SR most often encountered in the Technical Specifications (TS). The Frequency specifies an interval (12 hours1.388889e-4 days 0.00333 hours 1.984127e-5 weeks 4.566e-6 months ) during which the associated Surveillance must be performed at least one time. Performance of the Surveillance initiates the subsequent interval. Although the Frequency is stated as 12 hours1.388889e-4 days 0.00333 hours 1.984127e-5 weeks 4.566e-6 months , an extension of the time interval to 1.25 times the stated Frequency is allowed by SR 3.0.2 for operational flexibility. The measurement of this interval continues at all times, even when the SR is not required to be met per SR 3.0.1 (such as when the equipment is determined to not meet the LCO, a variable is outside specified limits, or the unit is outside the Applicability of the LCO). If the interval specified by SR 3.0.2 is exceeded while the facility is in a condition specified in the Applicability of the LCO, the LCO is not met in accordance with SR 3.0.1.

If the interval as specified by SR 3.0.2 is exceeded while the facility is not in a condition specified in the Applicability of the LCO for which performance of the SR is required, the Surveillance must be performed within the Frequency requirements of SR 3.0.2 prior to entry into the specified condition. Failure to do so would result in a violation of SR 3.0.4.

(continued)

NUHOMS EOS System Amendment 1 Technical Specifications 1-11

Frequency 1.4 1.4 Frequency (continued)

EXAMPLES EXAMPLE 1.4-2 (continued)

SURVEILLANCE REQUIREMENTS SURVEILLANCE FREQUENCY Verify flow is within limits. Once within 12 hours1.388889e-4 days 0.00333 hours 1.984127e-5 weeks 4.566e-6 months prior to starting activity AND 24 hours2.777778e-4 days 0.00667 hours 3.968254e-5 weeks 9.132e-6 months thereafter Example 1.4-2 has two Frequencies. The first is a one-time performance Frequency, and the second is of the type shown in Example 1.4-1. The logical connector AND indicates that both Frequency requirements must be met. Each time the example activity is to be performed, the Surveillance must be performed prior to starting the activity.

The use of once indicates a single performance will satisfy the specified Frequency (assuming no other Frequencies are connected by AND).

This type of Frequency does not qualify for the 25% extension allowed by SR 3.0.2.

Thereafter indicates future performances must be established per SR 3.0.2, but only after a specified condition is first met (i.e., the once performance in this example). If the specified activity is canceled or not performed, the measurement of both intervals stops. New intervals start upon preparing to restart the specified activity.

SURVEILLANCE REQUIREMENTS SURVEILLANCE FREQUENCY

NOTE ------------------

Not required to be met until 96 hours0.00111 days 0.0267 hours 1.587302e-4 weeks 3.6528e-5 months after verifying the helium leak rate is within limit.

Verify EOS DSC vacuum drying Once after verifying the helium pressure is within limit. leak rate is within limit.

As the Note modifies the required performance of the Surveillance, it is construed to be part of the specified Frequency. Should the vacuum drying pressure not be met immediately following verification of the helium leak rate while in LOADING OPERATIONS, this Note allows 96 hours0.00111 days 0.0267 hours 1.587302e-4 weeks 3.6528e-5 months to perform the Surveillance. The Surveillance is still considered to be performed within the specified Frequency.

Once the helium leak rate has been verified to be acceptable, 96 hours0.00111 days 0.0267 hours 1.587302e-4 weeks 3.6528e-5 months , plus the extension allowed by SR 3.0.2, would be allowed for completing the Surveillance for the vacuum drying pressure. If the Surveillance was not performed within this 96 hour0.00111 days 0.0267 hours 1.587302e-4 weeks 3.6528e-5 months interval, there would then be a failure to perform the Surveillance within the specified Frequency, and the provisions of SR 3.0.3 would apply.

The user shall establish in the program, measurement locations in the EOS-HSM that are representative of the EOS-HSM thermal performance and directly correlated to the predicted fuel cladding temperatures, air mass flow rates, and NUHOMS EOS System temperature distributions that would occur with the off-normal and accident blockage conditions, as analyzed in the UFSAR. The administrative temperature limits shall employ appropriate safety margins that ensure temperatures would not exceed design basis temperature limits in the UFSAR, and be based on the UFSAR methodologies used to predict thermal performance of the NUHOMS EOS System. If the direct measurement of the inlet and outlet air temperatures (option 2) is performed, the user must develop procedures to measure air temperatures that are representative of inlet and outlet air temperatures, as analyzed in the UFSAR. The user must also consider site-specific environmental conditions, loaded decay heat patterns, and the proximity of adjacent EOS-HSM modules in the daily air temperature measurement program. The user must ensure that measured air temperatures reflect only the thermal performance of each individual module, and not the combined performance of adjacent modules.

There are no credible scenarios that could block both the inlet and outlet vents. Therefore, only blockage of inlet vent is considered in the UFSAR. The intent of the program is to prevent conditions that could lead to exceeding the concrete and fuel clad temperature criteria. Each user must implement either TS 5.1.3.2(a) OR 5.1.3.2(b).

Additionally, within 30 days, take appropriate actions to restore the spent fuel to a safe configuration.

Lifting Controls 5.2.1 TC/DSC Lifting Height and Temperature Limits The requirements of 10 CFR 72 apply to TC/DSC lifting/handling height limits outside the FUEL BUILDING. The requirements of 10 CFR Part 50 apply to TC/DSC lifting/handling height limits inside the FUEL BUILDING. Confirm the surface temperature of the TC before TRANSFER OPERATIONS of the loaded TC/DSC.

The lifting height of a loaded TC/ DSC is limited as a function of low temperature and the type of lifting/handling device, as follows:

No lifts or handling of the TC/DSC at any height are permissible at TC surface temperatures below 0 °F The maximum lift height of the TC/DSC shall be 65 inches if the surface temperature of the TC is above 0 °F and a non-single-failure-proof lifting/handling device is used.

No lift height restriction is imposed on the TC/DSC if the TC surface temperature is higher than 0 °F and a single-failure-proof lifting/handling system is used.

The requirements of 10 CFR Part 72 apply when the TC/DSC is in a horizontal orientation on the transfer trailer. The requirements of 10 CFR Part 50 apply when the TC/DSC is being lifted/handled using the cask handling crane/hoist. (This distinction is valid only with respect to lifting/handling height limits.)

5.2.2 Cask Drop Inspection Requirement The TC will be inspected for damage and the DSC will be evaluated after any TC with a loaded DSC side drop of 15 inches or greater.

Background

TC/DSC handling and loading activities are controlled under the 10 CFR Part 50 license until a loaded TC/DSC is placed on the transporter, at which time fuel handling activities are controlled under the 10 CFR Part 72 license.

NUHOMS EOS System Amendment 1 Technical Specifications 5-7

Administrative Controls 5.0 5.0 ADMINISTRATIVE CONTROLS (continued)

Safety Analysis The analysis of bounding drop scenarios shows that the TC will maintain the structural integrity of the DSC confinement boundary from an analyzed side drop height of 65 inches. The 65-inch drop height envelopes the maximum height from the bottom of the TC when secured to the transfer trailer while en route to the ISFSI.

Although analyses performed for cask drop accidents at various orientations indicate much greater resistance to damage, requiring the inspection of the DSC after a side drop of 15 inches or greater ensures that:

1. The DSC will continue to provide confinement.

2. The TC can continue to perform its design function regarding DSC transfer and shielding.

Concrete Testing HSM concrete shall be tested during the fabrication process for elevated temperatures to verify that there are no significant signs of spalling or cracking and that the concrete compressive strength is greater than that assumed in the structural analysis. Tests shall be performed at or above the calculated peak temperature and for a period no less than the permissible duration as specified in Technical Specification 5.1.3.

HSM concrete temperature testing shall be performed whenever:

There is a change in the supplier of the cement, or

There is a change in the source of the aggregate, or

The water-cement ratio changes by more than 0.04.

Hydrogen Gas Monitoring For DSCs, while welding the inner top cover during LOADING OPERATIONS, and while cutting the inner top cover to DSC shell weld when the DSC cavity is wet during UNLOADING OPERATIONS, hydrogen monitoring of the space under the top shield plug in the DSC cavity is required, to ensure that the combustible mixture concentration remains below the flammability limit of 4%. If this limit is exceeded, all welding operations shall be stopped and the DSC cavity purged with helium to reduce hydrogen concentration safely below the limit before welding or cutting operations can be resumed.

EOS-HSM Wind Deflectors If the heat load of an EOS-37PTH DSC loaded per HLZC 1, 4, or 6 during STORAGE OPERATIONS is greater than 41.8 kW, wind deflectors shall be installed on the EOS-HSM.

If the heat load of a fuel assembly loaded per HLZC 5 in the EOS-37PTH DSC during STORAGE OPERATIONS is greater than 1.625 kW, wind deflectors shall be installed on the EOS-HSM.
