PURPOSE: The purpose of this activity is to inform you of the regulatory requirements and NRC guidance related to radiation protection applicable to the loading and storage of ISFSI casks. COMPETENCY AREA: INSPECTION LEVEL OF hours 1. 10 CFR 72.104, for Radioactive Materials in Effluents REFERENCES: “Criteria and Direct Radiation from an ISFSI or MRS” 10 CFR 72.106, Area of an ISFSI or MRS” “Controlled SFST-ISG-13, Individual” “Real SFST-ISG-14, Shielding” “Supplemental RG 8.29, Concerning Risks from Occupational “Instruction Radiation Exposure” IN 90-33, of Unexpected Occupational Radiation “Sources Exposures at Spent Fuel Storage Pools” Licensee as low as is reasonably achievable plan (if available) EVALUATION CRITERIA: At the completion of this activity, you should be able to do the following: Understand the storage radiation protection regulatory requirements. Understand and identify the safety-significant canister loading steps that may pose elevated radiation levels to plant workers. TASKS: 1. Review a licensee’s ISFSI loading ALARA plan to evaluate elevated radiation levels during critical ISFSI loading steps. Review requirements for ISFSI storage radiation levels. Observe at least one ISFSI loading activity including the radiation protection staff’s actions to maintain ALARA principles.
