1.

The NRC packaging and transportation regulations (10 CFR Part 71) were j

revised effective April 1, 1996. The revised regulations place some

' limitations on future use, modification, and fabrication of packages that do not have the designation "-25" (see 10 CFR 671.13).

Since your 2

application was pending at the time of the rule change, you may choose to request that the package be designated "-85" by revising your application to address the revised requirements of 10 CFR Part 71.

2.

The application contains 34 fabrication drawings. The drawings show many details and dimensions which are not important to safety. The application should be revised to include a smaller number of engineering drawings that are suitable for reference in a Certificate of Compliance.

The drawings should show the general arrangement of the package, its principle features, and the design of safety related components. The drawings should contain the following information:

a.

dimensions and tolerances important to safety, b.

materials of construction, c.

applicable codes or standards for fabrication of safety-related components, d.

size, type, and location of safety related welds'and methods of nondestructive examination, torque requirements for closure bolts and other threaded devices, e.

f.

total weight of the package, and g.

location of the tamper indication feature.
