However, the options of dry entombment and relocation to another pool are also reviewed to capture the considerations that led to the selected method of long-term storage.A project organization chart for this effort is presented in Attachment A.2.0 Project Objectives This project is intended to prepare for and execute the offloading of the Unit 1 spent fuel from the SFP to dry cask storage and subsequent movement to the ISFSI. Major activities of this effort include fuel element inspection (completed 2), placement of fuel elements into individual Damaged Fuel Containers 3 (DFCs) as needed, transfer/placement of fuel elements and/or DFCs into Multi Purpose Canisters (MPCs), placement of MPCs into transfer casks, movement of transfer casks to the Unit 2 Fuel Storage Building (FSB), intercask transfer of the MPCs to long-term storage containers and movement/placement of long-term storage containers to the ISFSI. A simplified flow chart of these activities is presented in Attachment B. A sketch of the primary transfer path activities is shown in Attachment C.A separate project plan will be developed describing the activities associated with the subsequent drain down and desludging of the SFP.3.0 Alternatives Considered | However, the options of dry entombment and relocation to another pool are also reviewed to capture the considerations that led to the selected method of long-term storage.A project organization chart for this effort is presented in Attachment A.2.0 Project Objectives This project is intended to prepare for and execute the offloading of the Unit 1 spent fuel from the SFP to dry cask storage and subsequent movement to the ISFSI.

This has the advantage of leaving the fuel in place until overall IPEC decommissioning occurs. The primary disadvantage is that the somewhat unique nature of this storage method would require regulatory approval including the potential for public hearings. | ||

Additionally, a new gate would be required to facilitate fuel transfer between the west and east pools. These modifications would only provide for an approximate 10-year life after which either further repairs (primarily recoating) would be required or the fuel would be relocated generally consistent with 3.3 below.Spent fuel relocation to the east pool has been determined by the project to be non-viable due to economic considerations and the relatively short (10 year) service life of this option.3.3 Spent Fuel Transfer A direct transfer of Unit 1 spent fuel to dry cask storage would require the addition of significant infrastructure that currently does not exist. Two alternative approaches each involve transfer of the spent fuel to the Unit 2 Fuel Handling Building.Option A: Transfer the spent fuel to a wet intra-unit transport cask, move this cask to the Unit 2 Fuel Handling Building and offload the Unit 1 spent fuel into the Unit 2 spent fuel pool. The Unit 1 spent fuel could then be transferred to dry cask storage at a later time. This option would require a site licensing amendment. | Additionally, a new gate would be required to facilitate fuel transfer between the west and east pools.

Remediation of this condition can be accomplished by various options, including dry entombment of the spent fuel within the SFP, relocation of the spent fuel to another pool, or transfer of the spent fuel to dry cask storage at the new IPEC Independent Spent Fuel Storage Installation (ISFSI). This latter option has been determined to be the most prudent course of action such that *this project plan primarily focuses on spent fuel removal/storage and ancillary activities.
However, the options of dry entombment and relocation to another pool are also reviewed to capture the considerations that led to the selected method of long-term storage.A project organization chart for this effort is presented in Attachment A.2.0 Project Objectives This project is intended to prepare for and execute the offloading of the Unit 1 spent fuel from the SFP to dry cask storage and subsequent movement to the ISFSI. Major activities of this effort include fuel element inspection (completed 2), placement of fuel elements into individual Damaged Fuel Containers 3 (DFCs) as needed, transfer/placement of fuel elements and/or DFCs into Multi Purpose Canisters (MPCs), placement of MPCs into transfer casks, movement of transfer casks to the Unit 2 Fuel Storage Building (FSB), intercask transfer of the MPCs to long-term storage containers and movement/placement of long-term storage containers to the ISFSI. A simplified flow chart of these activities is presented in Attachment B. A sketch of the primary transfer path activities is shown in Attachment C.A separate project plan will be developed describing the activities associated with the subsequent drain down and desludging of the SFP.3.0 Alternatives Considered 3.1 Spent Fuel Entombment Entombment would be part of a shielded pool storage plan that involves covering the west fuel pool with 2.5-foot thick concrete shielding and then draining the pool to eliminate leakage. This has the advantage of leaving the fuel in place until overall IPEC decommissioning occurs. The primary disadvantage is that the somewhat unique nature of this storage method would require regulatory approval including the potential for public hearings.
Preliminary review has indicated the technical feasibility of this approach.Spent fuel entombment in the SFP has been determined by the project to be non-viable based on licensing uncertainties and associated time considerations.
3.2 Spent Fuel Relocation to East Pool Relocation of the spent fuel to the east pool would involve establishing the east pool as a viable Also referred to herein as the west fuel pool.2 Fuel inspections performed demonstrated structural integrity (i.e., no hairline cracks, pin hole leaks, etc.);although necessary, this is not fully sufficient to demonstrate that the fuel is intact per ISG-1 and ANSI M14.33.1 A damaged fuel container is specifically designed to contain a single fuel assembly with known or suspected defects, such as ruptured, severed or cracked fuel rods.

The primary advantage of this option is that the east pool was originally designed for spent fuel storage such that design intent would be unchanged with little or no licensing impact. Disadvantages are based in part on already-completed inspections of the east pool indicating that the pool surfaces (walls and floor) would require repair/recoating.
Additionally, a new gate would be required to facilitate fuel transfer between the west and east pools. These modifications would only provide for an approximate 10-year life after which either further repairs (primarily recoating) would be required or the fuel would be relocated generally consistent with 3.3 below.Spent fuel relocation to the east pool has been determined by the project to be non-viable due to economic considerations and the relatively short (10 year) service life of this option.3.3 Spent Fuel Transfer A direct transfer of Unit 1 spent fuel to dry cask storage would require the addition of significant infrastructure that currently does not exist. Two alternative approaches each involve transfer of the spent fuel to the Unit 2 Fuel Handling Building.Option A: Transfer the spent fuel to a wet intra-unit transport cask, move this cask to the Unit 2 Fuel Handling Building and offload the Unit 1 spent fuel into the Unit 2 spent fuel pool. The Unit 1 spent fuel could then be transferred to dry cask storage at a later time. This option would require a site licensing amendment.
Spent fuel transfer to the Unit 2 spent fuel pool has been determined by the project to be non-viable based on licensing, economic and Unit 2 operational considerations.
Option B: Transfer the spent fuel to a dry transfer cask, move the cask to the Unit 2 Fuel Handling Building where a new gantry crane would be used to perform an inter-cask transfer (i.e., stack-up) of the MPC to the long-term storage container, which would then be moved to the ISFSI.Option B has been determined by the project to be the preferred option for transfer of spent fuel from the Unit 1 SFP. This conclusion has been reached by general considerations of timeliness, economics, effects on Unit 2/3 operations and licensing.
Relative to licensing in particular, dry cask storage within an outdoor ISFSI is an established industry approach for providing long-term storage capacity.
The approach has been implemented successfully both at Entergy plants and at other nuclear facilities.
10CFR72 ("Licensing Requirements for the Independent Storage of Spent Nuclear Fuel, High-Level Radioactive Waste, and Reactor-Related Greater than Class C Waste") grants a General License for owning and operating an ISFSI to all holders of a Part 50 power reactor operating license provided the licensee satisfies various conditions given within 10CFR72. Various dry cask vendors have obtained NRC approval for their storage systems, receiving an approved final safety analysis report and certificate of compliance.
This documentation is one of the elements of the written report required by 1 0CFR72.212.
A subset of the Option B process involves DFCs, for which a feasibility study is needed to establish whether full or partial use of DFCs is appropriate.
4.0 Action Plan John White -dry caskproject plan rev 1 (3).doc Page John White -dry cask project plan rev 1 (3).doc Page 611 Entergy Nuclear Northeast Removal, Relocation and Storage of Spent Fuel from the IPEC Unit 1 Spent Fuel Pool Project Plan 3/29/06 Page 6 of 19 NOTE: There is currently a separate project underway involving transfer of spent fuel to dry cask storage from Units 2 and 3. Some of the same equipment to be used for the Units 2 and 3 efforts can be used for the Unit 1 efforts. Additionally, portions of the Unit 1 plan described below involve regions of Unit 2. As a result, close coordination between these two projects should be maintained to maximize efficiency of equipment use and complimentary activities and to minimize duplication of effort.The activities described in this action plan will fall under the responsibility of the Unit 1 dry cask storage team, the Unit 2 dry cask storage team or the Planning, Scheduling and Outage Management Department (PS&0). Specific responsibility for each activity below is identified in the heading for each item.Current efforts include use of Holtec casks and equipment for much of the transfer/storage process.Reference herein to the load transfer cask and long-term storage containers are equivalent to Holtec HI-TRAC 100 Version D Transfer Cask and HI-STORM 100S Overpack, respectively.
