| ENS 41276 | 21 December 2004 15:48:00 | Arkansas Nuclear One (ANO) was verbally notified at 1530 CST on 12/20/04 by Framatone ANP, Inc. that a secondary review of preliminary results of fuel UT data evaluations resulted in conservative reclassifications of assemblies as now being suspect of containing a failed pin. This verbal notification was documented in subsequent correspondence received from Framatone on 12/21/04. Specifically, rods are now suspected of being failed in ANO Unit 2 fuel assemblies AKC401, AKC504, AKD001, AKF103, and AKF110, which were previously identified as clear of fuel failures based on re-scan data as determined in the preliminary report. The identified assemblies were loaded in Holtec Cask Numbers 10, 11, 12, and 13, during the November and December, 2004 cask loading campaign. Appendix B, Section 2.1.1, of the Certificate of Compliance (CoC) Number 1014 for the Holtec HI-STORM 100 allows for the loading of "intact" fuel assemblies. Based on the new information from Framatone, the suspect fuel assemblies do not meet the requirements of "intact". Section 2.2 of the Holtec CoC requires a 24-hour Notification for the failure to meet fuel specifications or loading conditions. The licensee notified the NRC Resident Inspector. |
