1. Purpose The purpose of this document is to provide administrative information relating to the FCC4 package model.
2. Package designer The designer of the FCC4 package model is: Framatome 10, rue Juliette Récamier 69456 LYON CEDEX 06 The applicant is: ORANO NPS 1, rue des Hérons 78180 MONTIGNY-LE-BRETONNEUX
3. Description The fresh nuclear fuel for use in powering PWR nuclear power plants is made up of fuel rods assembled to form an array. These products need to be transported between various production sites (factories) and/or points of use (nuclear power plants) either in the form of fuel assemblies or in the form of non-assembled rods.

The Safety Analysis Report covers the transportation of the following contents:

Fuel assemblies with a nominal active length of 14 feet, which may or may not be provided with rod clusters, Non-assembled rods for assemblies with a nominal active length of 8, 10, 12 and 14 feet, in packagings designated throughout this document by the term "FCC4".

This "FCC4" packaging re-uses the shells formerly used by the "RCC4", but incorporates a new internal equipment system which is available in two versions, depending on the content envisaged:

Version 1: for fuel assemblies composed of a 17x17 square fuel rod array or for non-assembled fuel rods grouped in channels, Version 2: for fuel assemblies composed of a 16x16 or 18x18 square fuel rod array.

The rods in either of these versions can be made from Enriched Natural Uranium (ENU) or from Enriched Reprocessed Uranium (ERU).

4. Requirements for transportation 4.1. Requirements for transportation of LSA materials in industrial packages Radioactive fissile materials are classified LSA II or LSA III in accordance with reference [1]

for the transportation of ENU (§ 4.2 of Chapter 1.3) and ERU (§ 4.3 of Chapter 1.3).

The package can be defined as a Type 2 Fissile Industrial Package (IP-2).

4.2. Requirements for transportation of LSA materials in type A packages The activity of radioactive materials contained in the FCC4 is no more than 1 A2 for the transportation of ENU (§ 4.2 of Chapter 1.3).

The package can be defined as a type A package.

Formulaire : PM04-4-MO-6 rev. 03 Unrestricted Orano Orano NPS Identification : DOS-19-021166-001-NPV Vers. 2.0 Page 4 of 7 4.3. Determination of transport indices 4.3.1. Transport index for radiation exposure monitoring Radiological monitoring measurements are taken prior to any shipment to enable the transport index to be calculated.

4.3.2. Determination of Criticality-Safety Index The criticality safety index is calculated in accordance with Articles 525 and 686 of the Regulation reference [1], covered in Chapter 2.5.

Depending on the type of assembly, the number N of packages taken into account in accordance with Articles 684 and 685 varies. This number of packages N calculated in the criticality studies is used to determine the value of the criticality safety index (CSI) by the formula CSI = 50 / N. The following table presents the CSI values obtained from Chapter 2.5:

Number of Content CSI packages Non assembled rods all types Infinite 0 16x16 6 8.33 17x17 XL/XLR 80 0.625 Assemblies 18x18 6 8.33 17x17 EPR' 80 0.625 17x17 GAIA 80 0.625 4.4. Determination of package category As stated in § 4 of Chapter 1.3, the FCC4 packaging is designed and fabricated for the exclusive shipment of Low Specific Activity radioactive fissile materials (LSA II or LSA III according to reference [1] for ENU and ERU).

Radiological monitoring measurements are taken prior to any shipment to enable the transport index to be calculated. (See Paragraph 4.3.1).

When a packaging is loaded to maximum capacity, the maximum dose rate at any point on its outer surface is in the order of:

28 Sv/h with ERU-based assemblies (4.25%) - (see Appendix 1.2-1)

The package category is determined from the Transport Index (TI - see § 4.3.1) and the measured maximum dose rate. The tables in Article 529 of reference [1], reproduced in the table below, indicate the package categories according to these parameters.

Maximum dose rate at any point on the Transport index Category outer surface 0(1) No more than 0.005 mSv/h I-WHITE More than 0 but no more More than 0.005 mSV/h but no more than II-YELLOW than 1 0.5 mSV/h More than 1 but no more More than 0.5 mSV/h but no more than III-YELLOW than 10 2 mSV/h More than 10 More than 2 mSV/h but less than 10 mSV/h III-YELLOW (2)

(1) If the measured TI is not over 0.05, its value may be reduced to zero in accordance with paragraph c) of Article 523 of reference [1].

(2) Packages in this category must be transported under "exclusive use".

5. Marking and labelling Marking and labelling must conform to the requirements of the Regulations per reference [1]. The conformity of marking and labelling must be checked before shipment as indicated in the Chapter 1.7 of this document.
6. Modes of transport Authorised modes of transport for the FCC4 packaging are transportation by road, rail, river and/or sea, for which the applicable regulations are defined in paragraph 7.

In the case of river transport, a limit of 100 A2 per hold or compartment of the vessel is imposed for LSA II or LSA III materials (Table 6 of reference [1]).

7. Applicable codes and regulations As a type IP-2 or type A container loaded with fissile materials, the FCC4 packaging and its content are compliant with the requirements, regulations, agreements or recommendations enumerated below:

Regulations for the Safe Transport of Radioactive Material, Specific Safety Requirements, No. SSR 6 (Rev. 1), 2018 edition; European Agreement concerning the International Carriage of Dangerous Goods by Road (ADR);

Regulations concerning the International Carriage of Dangerous Goods by Rail (RID);

European Agreement concerning the International Carriage of Dangerous Goods by Inland Waterways (ADN);

International Maritime Code for Dangerous Goods Code (IMDG code published by the IMO);

Order of 29 May 2009 (amended) concerning the Carriage of Dangerous Goods by Terrestrial Routes (TMD Order);

Order of 23 November 1987 (amended) concerning the Safety of Shipping, Division 411 of the Attached Regulations (RSN Order).

The above Regulations repeat in their entirety the requirements set forth in the IAEA Transport Regulation, reference [1], governing radioactive materials, containers, packages and testing.

Proof of compliance of the package is presented in Chapter 1.6 with reference to the IAEA Regulation.
