MST-30 PACKAGE - REVALIDATION RECOMMENDATION

Dear Mr. Boyle:

This is in response to your letter dated June 3, 2020, (Agencywide Documents Access and Management System [ADAMS] Accession No. ML20156A074), in which the U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) requested that the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) staff perform a review of the Japanese Certificate of Competent Authority J/159/AF-96, Rev. No. 3, for the Model No. MST-30 transport package and make a recommendation concerning the revalidation of the package for import and export use.

Based upon our review, the statements and representations contained in the application, in the Mitsubishi Nuclear Fuel Co., LTD, Safety Analysis Report for the Model MST-30 Protective Shipping Package For 30-Inch UF6 Cylinders, Revision No. 6, dated March 2020, and for the reasons stated in the enclosed safety evaluation report, we recommend revalidation of Japanese Certificate of Competent Authority J/159/AF-96, Rev. No. 3 for the MST-30 transport package with the additional condition that the package is not authorized for air transport.

If you have any questions regarding this matter, please contact me or Bernard White of my staff at (301) 415-6877.

Sincerely, John McKirgan, Chief Storage and Transportation Licensing Branch Division of Fuel Management Office of Nuclear Material Safety and Safeguards Docket No. 71-3057
