Subject:

Response to NRC Generic Letter 2016-01: Monitoring of Neutron-Absorbing Materials in Spent Fuel Pools for the Missouri S&T Reactor Facility, R-79, Docket 50-123.

NRC:

The Missouri University of Science & Technology Research Reactor does not have neutron absorbing materials in the fuel storage pool (FSP). Fuel elements are positioned in two racks each made of 6061 T6 Aluminum. Each rack can hold one row of fifteen fuel elements with a distance ofr* five inches between elements. The entire fuel inventory can be contained in the FSP.

The:reaCtor core has the control rods maintaining a subcritical reactor while the reactor is shutdown and not being used. During the annual control rod inspection 50% of the reactor core's critical mass is moved to the FSP. One control rod is removed from the core, inspected arid.~einstalled into the reactor core prior to the removal and inspection of the next control rod.

All fuel movements during this process are approved by the reactor manager and supervised by a Senior Reactor Operator. *-
