Transportation Certification Branch Approval Record flodel No. GE-500 Package Docket No. 71-9094 By application dated June 27, 1985, as supplemented, Advanced ifedical Systems, Inc. reauested renewal of Certificate of Compliance flo. 9049

. for the tiodel No. GE-500 package. In support of the renewal reouest,

! Advanced ifedical Systens, Inc. submitted a consolidated safety analysis repo rt . Advanced ftedical Systems, Inc. initiated the renewal request since General Electric Company had indicated that they would not request i renewal of the certificate.

A review of the consolidated application confirmed that all pertinent supplement information 'and the application dated February 21, 1930, had i been incorporated into the consolidated safety analysis report which has been expanded to inclv?e information pertaining to Operating Procedures and ifaintenance Progran. flowever, the~ following discrepancies are noted:

o The packaging weight is reported to be 8,100 pounds instead of the 7,800 pounds as previously stated 'in the certificate of compliance.

The applicant has used the 8,100 pounds in analyzing oackage perfornance with satisfactory results. The applicant further states that the weight difference occurs in the weight of the base and protective jacket and not in the cask.

o Section ? 3, tiedical Properties of fiaterials, needs clarification.

The values given should be the miniaun values as reported by a recognized body such as ASTit, ASf'E, or AISI.

o Section 2.4.4, Tie Down Devices. The statenent comparing the strength of the components involved is not correct based on the strength values reported in Section 2.3.

o Section 2.6.9, Compression. The statement referring to the analysis in Section 2.5.1 as satisfying the compression loading is not correct. Section '2.5.1 analyzes the packing as a simple , bean supported at its ends.

The above listed discrepancies are not considered critical to the renewal of the certificate of compliance since the criqinal approval was based on a safety analysis report supported by prototype testing (f'odel No. GE-100, Certificate of Compliance No. 5926) which demonstrated compliance with performance requirements of 10 CFR Part 71.

. o The applicant stated that additional units of the . packaging will not be fabricated and, therefore, the application does not contain a section on Acceptance Testing. Accordingly, the certificate of compliance has been conditioned to preclude the fabrication of additional packagings. It is also noted that the application addresses only one type and form of contents, " Byproduct material meeting the requirenents of special form, maximun decay heat load of 780 watts." Therefore, a second - type and j form presently listed in the certificate has been deleted.  !

Based on the consolidated application, as supplemented, and the original Safety Evaluation Report dated itay 1,1969, the staff concludes that the requirement for renewal of the certificate of compliance has been satisfied.
