The scenario described in the RAI involves the potential for dropping the dry spent fuel storage cask during movement from the Spent Fuel Pool (SFP) to the area within the plaat building where activities such as drying, inerting, and final securing of the cask lid are completed, in a letter to the NRC dated hiay 23,1997 (TE Serial Number 2465), TE stated that a complete response to the RAI is scheduled for August 22,1997.
The DIlNPS has used the dry spent fuel storage system provided by VECTRA Technologies, Inc. (VECTRA)in accordance with NRC Certificate of Compliance Number 1004. The DIlNPS is not currently performing any dry spent fuel storage casking activities.
