Download as PDF Federal Register / Vol. 70, No. 199 / Monday, October 17, 2005 / Notices dry cask storage system at PNP. However, since NMC does not have an NRC-approved methodology for evaluating changes to the analyses or systems supporting this exemption request, the NRC staff’s approval of the exemption is restricted to those specific design and operating conditions described in NMC’s June 21, 2005, exemption request. NMC may not apply the 10 CFR 50.59 process for evaluating changes to specific exemptions. Any changes to the design or operation of (1) the dry cask storage system; (2) the SFP; (3) the fuel assemblies to be stored; (4) the boron dilution analyses; or (5) supporting procedures and controls, regardless of whether they are approved under the general Part 72 license or perceived to be conservative, will invalidate this exemption. Upon invalidation of the exemption, NMC will be required to comply with NRC regulations prior to future cask loadings. Based upon the review of NMC’s exemption request to credit soluble boron during DSC loading, unloading, and handling in PNP’s SFP, the NRC staff concludes that pursuant to 10 CFR 50.12(a)(2)(iii), NMC’s exemption request is acceptable. However, the NRC staff places the following limitations/ conditions on the approval of this exemption: 1. This exemption is limited to the loading, unloading, and handling of the DSC for only the TN NUHOMS-32PT at the PNP. 2. This exemption is limited to the loading, unloading, and handling in the DSC at PNP of Combustion Engineering 15 x 15 fuel assemblies, without burnable poison rod assemblies, that had maximum initial, unirradiated U– 235 enrichments less than 3.6 weight percent. 3. This exemption is limited to the one-time only loading, unloading, and handling of the 7 TN NUHOMS-32PT cask systems (224 assemblies total) scheduled for the October 2005 cask loading campaign at PNP. 4. If NMC submits a LAR by July 31, 2006, this exemption will remain in effect until such time as the NRC staff either approves or denies the LAR. In this case, the NRC staff finds it acceptable to leave the exemption in effect because it will allow NMC to unload any previously loaded cask should it become necessary. However, if NMC does not submit a license amendment by July 31, 2006, this exemption will expire, and NMC will not be able to load, unload, or handle DSCs in the SFP. In its exemption supplement, NMC committed to complete supporting criticality analyses and submit a LAR to allow credit for VerDate Aug<31>2005 19:26 Oct 14, 2005 Jkt 208001 burnup to meet the requirements of 10 CFR 50.68(b)(1) in July 2006 or earlier. 5. During DSC loading, unloading, and handling at PNP, the SFP soluble boron concentration must be greater than or equal to 2500 ppm at all times. Pursuant to 10 CFR 51.32, the Commission has determined that the granting of this exemption will not have a significant effect on the quality of the human environment (70 FR 57899). This exemption is effective upon issuance. Dated at Rockville, Maryland, this 6th day of October 2005. For the Nuclear Regulatory Commission. Ledyard B. Marsh, Director, Division of Licensing Project Management, Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation. [FR Doc.
