1. He nee 3 five (5) copies of LASL Drawing lio. E!!G-E-374.
2. We need five (5) copies of drawings for any of the cask inserts which are used for criticality control.

C0ITE?lTS Specify the maxinum internal decay heat to be shipped in a single package.

This value should be consistent with the maximum internal decay heat used in the thornal analyses for normal conditions of transport and accident damage conditions.

STRUCTURAL l Show that the cask lid is retained when the maxinun lead flow stress is used to calculate the packaqe deceleration loads due to impact from the 30 foot drop test. The maximum content load should also be included in this analysis. Since the exact value of flow stress for lead is not knnwn, a range of values should be used for anclysis. The assuned flow stress range should be justified. The minimum value of flou stress must I

be used to detemine the maximaa shielding danage, and the maxinum value to detemine the maximum deceleration loads due to impact.

T!!ERMAL Provide details of the thernal model for the 1/2-hour fire test which predicts a first tine to first melt of 27, 23.9 and 18.3 ninutes for the sides, edges and corners of this steel encased lead cask. Also, provide intermediate results of the transient themal analysis of the fire test.

SilIELDI!!G The post accident shielding calculation should be done assuming the worst cumulative damage from the accident danage test sequence. The analysis provided considers only impact and fire damage, and considers thea independ-ent of each other.
