NUPAC 14/190L, NUPAC 14/19CM, NUPAC 14/190H, LN 14-170L, LN 14-170M and LN 14-170H Docket No. 71-9159 Revision No. 5 By application dated February 29, 1988, as supplemented, Nuclear Packaging Inc. requested renewal of Certificate of Compliance No. 9159 for the Model Nos. NUPAC 14/190L, NUPAC 14/190M and NUPAC 14/190H packages. In support of the request for renewal the applicant submitted a consolidated application which incorporated those portions of the October 29, 1982 pplication, as supplemented, pertaining to the NUPAC 14/190 packaging series. The application also includes a new set of packaging drawings which address only the NUPAC 14/190 packaging series.

A review of the consolidated application confirmed that the application is complete and all appropriate supplement information has been incorporated.

The application has revised the drawings and safety analysis report to permit the use of ASTM A537 Class 1 plate material as an alternate to the ASTM A516 GP. 70 material specification. The drawing requires that material made to either specification be normalized as recommended by NUREG/CR-1815. The drawing revisions also include small dimensional corrections and the addition of tolerances to some of the overall packaging dimensions.

By application dated February 16, 1988, LN Technologies Corporation requested renewal of Certificate of Compliance No. 9159 for the Model Nos. LN 14-170L, LN 14-17CM and LN 14-170H packagings. The application included the NUS supplements referenced by the existing certificate with the exce pion of the information in the November 22, 1985 supplement. Since the information in the November 22, 1985 supplement was not part of the consolidated application the certificate of compliance will continue to reference the NUS document. The applicant has changed the title blocks and the title pages of all NUS documentation to read "LN Technologies Corporation," including the model number, in accordance with a previous notification regarding the merger of the two companies. The certificate of compliance has been reviced accordingly.

The certificate has been conditioned to require the packages to be prepared for shipment, operated, acceptance tested, and maintained in accordance with l their respective procedures.

The certificate of compliance has been rencyad for a five year term which  !

expires May 31, 1993.
