UNITED STATES NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION WASHINGTON, D.C. 20555-0001 December 9, 2022 MEMORANDUM TO: Carrie Safford, Deputy Director Division of Fuel Management Office of Nuclear Material Safety and Safeguards Signed by Allen, William FROM: Chris Allen, Project Manager on 12/09/22 Storage and Transportation Licensing Branch Division of Fuel Management Office of Nuclear Material Safety and Safeguards
SUBJECT:
SUMMARY
OF NOVEMBER 10, 2022, PUBLIC MEETING WITH HOLTEC INTERNATIONAL, LLC TO DISCUSS AMENDMENT NO. 10 TO CERTIFICATE OF COMPLIANCE NO. 1032
Background
This was an Observation public meeting between Holtec, and U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) staff to discuss Amendment No. 10 to Certificate of Compliance No. 1032.
Regulatory commitments were not made at the meeting. The meeting was noticed on October 31, 2022 (Agencywide Documents Access and Management System {ADAMS}
Accession No. ML22300A166). The list of meeting attendees is provided in Enclosure 1. The publicly available meeting presentation slides are available in ADAMS and can be accessed using accession number ML22307A204.
Meeting Summary On November 10, 2022, the NRC staff held a public meeting with Holtec representatives. The discussion followed the agenda provided in Enclosure 2. After Holtec made their public technical discussion, the public portion of the meeting subsequently ended since members of the public did not attend the meeting. During the closed portion of the meeting, NRC personnel asked several structural questions related to the forces acting on the bolts which secure the lower overpack to the independent spent fuel storage installation (ISFSI) pad as well as the bolts which connect the lower and upper overpacks. In addition, NRC personnel asked about forces acting on the ISFSI pad itself. NRC personnel also asked about analyses associated with the forces acting on both the bolts and the ISFSI pad. Since a general licensee would have the ability to use the stackable version of the HI-STORM FW system on an ISFSI pad built for an earlier amendment, NRC personnel also asked about the implications of bolting the new overpack design into an existing ISFSI pad.
In response to NRC personnel questions, Holtec provided clarifying information related to overpack vents and assumptions associated with the hypothetical accident fire scenario. NRC personnel also commented on Holtecs approach in demonstrating that the higher heat loads satisfied the regulatory requirements. In addition, Holtec provided some insight on how they intended to incorporate the thermal topical report into the amendment.

C. Safford 2 Holtec provided some clarifying information related to the shielding evaluation in response to questions from NRC personnel, and also discussed how the shielding topical report might be incorporated into the amendment. Since the proposed changes neither impacted the confinement nor the criticality technical disciplines, these subjects were not discussed. After discussing submittal timing and the requested review time, the meeting was adjourned.
