Framatome intends to Request a Letter Authorization utilizing Docket No. 71 -9372, Framatome TN-81 Shipping Container.

References:

(1) NRG Certificate of Compliance (CoC) USA/9372/B(U)F-96, Revision 2, Docket Number 71-9372.

Framatome Inc. (Framatome) wishes to inform the NRG that we intend to formally request a letter authorization utilizing Certificate of Compliance 9372 for the TN-B1 packaging for up to two shipments between mid-March 2022 and ending no later than July 2022. This request is to support data gathering during road tests and provide for the safe transport of a small number of Framatome channeled BWR fresh fuel assemblies with a few changes to the TN-B1 packaging requirements. The changes are directed to support improved vibration performance and a thicker fuel channel side thickness.

This request for a Letter Authorization will be submitted mid-December 2021.

Please feel free to contact me at (509) 375-8550 or Bryan Flanagan of my staff at (509) 375-8537 if you have questions or need additional information.
