'O MAKE IT BEHAVE AS A CANTILEVER BEAM WHEN IMPACTED BY A M I SS I LE AT THE TOP .
THE INITIAL VELOCITY OF 78 FPS WILL BE REDUCED AS IT TRAVELS THROUGH THE WATER. IT IS ASSUMED THAT THE VELOCITY WILL REDUCE BY AT LEAST 10 '%R TO 70 FPS.
AS THE MISSILE IMPACTS THE TOP OF THE RACK THE KINETIC ENERGY IS REDUCED TO:
2 KE = WbV (C1/(1+(We/Wb) I) /(2g)
WHERE:
Wb = WE I GHT OF MI SS I LE Wm = WEIGHT OF RACK ASSEMBLEY We = EQUI VAI,ENT WEIGHT OF THE MEMBER

THE HORIZONTAL LOAD IS CARRIED THROUGH THE RACK BY .THE SIDES OF THE BOXES AS SHOWN ON FIG. ¹7. THE SECTION BETWEEN THE BOXES MUST MAINTAIN ITS STRUCTURAL INTEGRITY TO CARRY THE LOAD. THESE SECTIONS BEHAVE AS A COLUMNS WHERE:

Attachment C In accordance with 10CFR 50.91 this change to the Technical Specifications has been evaluated against three criteria to determine if the operation, of the facility in accordance'ith the proposed amendment would:
involve a significant increase in the probability or consequences of an accident previously evaluated; or
- 2. create the possibility of a new or different kind of accident from any accident previously evaluated; or
- 3. involve a significant reduction in a margin of safety.
As outlined below, Rochester Gas 6 Electric submits that the issues associated with this amendment request are outside the criteria of 10CFR 50.91, and therefore, a no significant hazards finding is warranted.
Attachment B presented an analysis of the dose consequences.
resulting from the impact of a tornado missile. Because of the limited deflection of the rack (1.4 inches) on impact, and the, 2 of 4 storage space configuration, it is impossible to postulate damage in excess of a total number of rods equivalent to five
'ut fuel assemblies. 'sing a conservative X/Q value, considering the assumed tornado conditions, results in a dose at the EAB of 60 rem. This is well within the guidelines of 10CFR 100 and is less than what the NRC considered acceptable for the fuel handling accident inside containment (96 rem).
Therefore a no significant hazards finding is warranted for the following reasons:
There is no increase in the probability of impact of a tornado missile on spent fuel. The consequences were evaluated to be less than what the NRC considered acceptable previously because a more appropriate X/Q value for the postulated tornado condition was used.
- 2. The possibilty of a different kind of accident is not created.
"3. There is no significant reduction in the margin of safety. The consequences of such an accident are less than previous results.
