W p

Steel encased lead shielded casks for radioactive material. The casks are right circular g,

pl cylinders with a 77.25-inch ID by 80.25-inch IH cavity. The walls of the casks contain a lead gj 5,

thickness ranging from 1.25 to 1.88 inches encased in 0.38-inch thick inner steel shell and qj 9

0.88-inch thick outer steel shell. The top cover and cask bottom are made up of two steel E i 9

plates with thickness of 2.0 inches. The primary cask lid is secured to the cylindrical cask body N

5 by eight,1-1/4 3 ch rachet binders. An optional secondary lid is centered in the primary lid and W

Neoprene gasket seal. The casks may be provided with an optional 12 gauge stainless steel I

liner (seal welded along all edges), an optional lid vent line with pipe plug, and an optional 3/4-g!

inch drain line with pipe plug. The casks are provided with four equally spaced lifting / tie-down y

g devices. The primary lid is provided with three lifting lugs and the optional secondary lid is g

g provided with one lifting lug. The casks gross weights range from 51,600 to 58,400 pounds.

(a)

For any package containing water and/or organic substances which could radiolytically I

analysis of a representative package such that the following criteria are met over a period of I

time that is twice the expected shipment time:

[

3 (1) The hydrogen generated must be limited to a molar quantity that would be no more than i

3 5% by volume (or equivalent limits for other inflammable gases) of the secondary i

i container gas void if present at STP (i.e., no more than 0.063 g-moles /ft* at 14.7 psia and i

1 70*F); or 1

I 3

(2) The secondary container and cask cavity must be inerted with a diluent to assure that i

3 hydrogen must be limited to 5% by volume in those portions of the package which could I

3 have hydrogen greater than 5%.

I 1

1 3

For any package delivered to a carrier for transport, the secondary container must be prepared l

for shipment in the same manner in which determination for gas generation is made. Shipment 3

period begins when the package is prepared (sealed) and must be completed within twice the j

expected shipment time.

(b)

For any package shipped within 10 days of preparation, or within 10 days after venting of i

i drums or other secondary containers, the determination in (a) above need not be made, and i
