1.
I am Project Director for Private Fuel Storage, L.L.C. ("PFS"). I report directly to John Parkyn, the Chainnan of the Board of PFS. In my capacity as Project Director, I am responsible for the execution and integration of the legal and technical activities of the Private Fuel Storage Facility ("PFSF") project I am providing this 1
affidavit in support of a motion for partial summary disposition of Utah Contention B in the above-captioned proceeding. My professional and educational experience is summarized in the curriculum vitae attached as Exhibit I to this Declaration.
2.
As Project Director of PFS, I am knowledgeable about PFS's plan for the operation of the Intermodal Transfer Point ("lTP"). The ITP would be an integral part of transporting the spent fuel to the PFSF under the second of two alternatives being considered by PFS for the transport of spent nuclear fuel to the PFSF.

. The ITP will be located on a rail siding off of the Union Pacific rail line, 1.8 miles west of Rowley Junction, Utah near Interstate 80. The ITP is not on the same property as the PFSF, which would be located approximately 25 miles to the south on the Skull Valley Indian Reservation. At the ITP, the spent fuel would be transferred from rail car to heavy-haul truck.
r 4.
As' discussed in the PFSF Safety Analysis Report (SAR) in Section 4.5, the ITP will consist of rail sidings off of the Union Pacific main rail line, a 150 ton capacity gantry crane, and a heavy-haul tractor / trailer yard area. The gantry crane will be single-failure-proof, and housed in a weather enclosure. The ITP will surrounded by a chain-link fence to provide industrial security.
5.
The spent fuel will arrive at the ITP scaled inside an NRC-certified transportation cask and will remain so sealed for the entire time that it is at the ITP.
Further, at all times while it is at the ITP, the scaled transportation cask will remain in shipment mode: loaded on its transportation cradle, in a horizontal configuration, with the impact limiters installed.
6.
The sole operation performed at the ITP will be to transfer the sealed transportation cask from one mode of transportation, a rail car, to another mode of transportation, a heavy-haul truck trailer. The ITP will not be used as a spent fuel repackaging facility, staging facility, or buffer storage facility. The sole purpose of the -
transfer will be to facilitate completion of the cask shipment to the PFSF, by transferring the cask from one mode of transportation, railcar, to a subsequent mode of transportation, heavy-haul truck. The specific steps that would be involved in this transfer are described J
in PFS's answer to the State's Interrogatory No. 4 for Utah Contention B. 333 Exhibit 2 to this Declaration, g

INTERROG ATORIES - Utah Contention B.
INTERROG ATORY NO. 4. Describe the operational procedures and the proposed infrastructure at the ITF for the handling of a rail shipment aniving at the ITF for intermodal transfer to the proposed ISFSI that may contain up to five casks, six spacer cars, one crew car and two engines, and also describe the length of the siding required for such a shipment and how the ITF could accommodate such a shipment. See Response to EIS RAI," Transportation," Question 1-2 at 1.
APPLICANT'S RESPONSE: The maximum number of cask cars that would arrive in a rail shipment at the ITP would be three. The reference to trains of"3 to 6 rail cars" in the response to EIS RAI l-2 refers to the Low Corridor rail line and not the ITP.
The operational plan, infrastructure at the ITP, and length of siding, to the extent known, are as follows:
Operational procedures and infrastructure for handling a rail shipment. The operational process for the transfer of sealed spent fuel transportation casks at the ITP as currently planned by PFS, will occur as follows:
- 1. Receive incoming rail shipment and park on one of two sidings (inbound).
- 2. Decouple locomotives and either move them to the other siding (outbound) or have them depart the ITP with empty cars previously unloaded.
- 3. Separate one cask car from the balance of the train and move onto unloading track under gantry crane with small rail switcher.
4.' Remove attachment hardware.between cask shipping cradle and cradle tie down structure mounted on the railcar bed.
- 5. Attach lifting rigging / gantry crane hook to cask cradle.

- 6. Lift entire integral shipment (cask / shipping cradle / impact limiters) a few inches up and off rail car and move over and lower onto heavy haul trailer.
)
i I
- 7. Install attachinent hardware between cask shipping cradle and cradle tie down structure mounted on heavy haul trailer to secure load.
- 8. Move heasy haul trailer from ITP to PFSF.
- 9. Move empty cask rail car from under gantry crane and park on outbound siding.
- 10. Repeat steps 3 through 9 until all cask rail cars are emptied.
Infrastructure at ITP: The ITP is shown in Figure 3.2-1 of the PFS Environmental l
Report. The major ITP infrastructure components necessary to handle a rail shipment arriving at the ITP and transfer it to a heavy-haul truck / trailer include: the two rail sidings (inbound and outbound), the single-failure-proof gantry crane, the unloading track that passes under the gantry crane, and the truck access corridor under the gantry crane. The metal weather enclosure over the gantry crane at the ITP is provided only for weather protection of the crane.
Length of the siding. A train consisting of three cask cars, four spacer cars, one security crew car, and two locomotives would be approximately 750 ft. long assuming the length of a cask car is 100 ft., a spacer car is 55 ft., a security crew car is 60 ft., and a locomotive is 85 ft. The shorter of the two sidings will accommodate a total train length of up to 1100 ft. The longer of the two sidings will accommodate a total train length of up to 1400 ft. Both sidings would accommodate the subject train length.
