The walls of the casks contain a lead thickness l'
ranging from 1.25 to 1.88 inches encased in 0.38-inch thick inner l
g steel shell and 0.88-inch thick outer steel shell. The top cover and lt 1;
cask botton are inade up of two steel plates with thickness of 2.0

inches.
The primary cask lid is secured to the cylindrical cask body
't 1
by eight,1-1/4-inch rachet binders.
An ootional secondary lid is lI 1,
centered in the primary lid and is secured to the primary lid with ll f
eight, 3/4-inch studs and nuts.
Each lid is provided with a Neoprene
}
gasket seal.

By application dated January 27, 1986, Nuclear Packaging, Inc. (NilPAC) requested changes to their referenced package designs to reflect field experience. The ratchet binder torque is increased from 50 ft-lbs to 100+10 ft-lbs and the primary lid gasket thickness may be 0.38 through 0.56-inch thickness.
It was stated that these changes will result in a more reliable seal.
The above certificates have been revised to require the higher torque value and pemit the range in gasket thickness.
The ahve changes will not effect the ability of the casks to meet the requiranents of 10 CFR Part 71.

By application dated December 14, 1984, as supplemented on May la and November 22, 1935, NUS Process Services Corporation (NUS) requested amendments to the above certificates.
The changes involve component and material changes and redesignation of the cask model numbers for packages constructed to the drawings provided by NUS.
Each cask must meet the Acceptance Tests and Maintenance Program of Section 8.0 of the Nuclear Packaging, Inc. application.
In addition, revised Operating, Maintenance, Gamma Scanning, and Leak Testing Procedures applicable to the NUS packages were provided and may be used as applicable and in lieu of pertinent parts of Section 8.0 of the Nuclea Packaging. Inc. application. As a result of operating experience witi, similar packages, the ratchet binders on the cask lid must be torqued to 100+10 ft-lbs.
The above changes will not effect the ability of the casks to meet the reouirements of 10 CFR Part 71.
