OF SEPTEMBER 7, 2006, MEETING WITH OMAHA PUBLIC POWER DISTRICT TO DISCUSS OPTIONS FOR NEXT DRY CASK STORAGE CAMPAIGN On September 7, 2006, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) staff from the Spent Fuel Project Office, and Omaha Public Power District (OPPD) met at NRC Headquarters in Rockville, Maryland. The purpose of the meeting was to discuss OPPDs options for the next dry cask storage campaign at Fort Calhoun. Enclosure 1 is a list of attendees. Enclosure 2 contains the handouts from the meeting.
The staff discussed the recent staff requirements memorandum (SRM) issued by the Commission regarding the use of unshielded canisters dated August 31, 2006, (ADAMS accession ML062430470). The staff stated that it encouraged the normal licensing process of requesting a Certificate of Compliance (CoC) amendment. The staff also indicated that a simplified licensing action request would result in a simplified review that could be done by the staff in a shorter period of time than a more complex review. Transnuclear (TN), the storage cask vendor, was also in attendance to outline the scope of aCoC amendment for the lightweight transfer cask used at Fort Calhoun. TN indicated that itexpected to submit the amendment in the spring of 2007. The staff noted that OPPD's andTN's proposed schedule did not support issuing an amendment to the CoC by OPPD's stated need date of January 2008. OPPD indicated that it would evaluate its options of: 1) having W. Ruland- 2 -TN request an amendment as soon as possible, 2) delay dry cask loading until after 2008, or 3)seek another exemption. OPPD and the staff agreed that another meeting was needed afterOPPD had time to evaluate its options. No regulatory decisions were made at the meeting.
