NRC RENEWS LICENSE FOR DRY-CASK SPENT FUEL INSTALLATION AT

DOMINION’S SURRY NUCLEAR POWER PLANT

The Nuclear Regulatory Commission has renewed the license of Dominion Generation for its

dry-cask independent spent fuel storage installation at the Surry nuclear power plant in Surry, Va., for

an additional 40 years.

“The license includes strict conditions to monitor potential effects of aging on the integrity of

the casks,” said E. William Brach, director of the NRC’s Spent Fuel Project Office. “These conditions

include additional inspections to be conducted by the licensee and continuous monitoring of radiation

at the boundary of the dry-cask storage facility.”

This is the first time the NRC has renewed a license for a dry-cask spent nuclear fuel storage

facility. In December, the agency renewed the license for an away-from-reactor spent fuel pool storage

facility at G.E. Morris in Illinois.

The 40-year term for Surry’s renewed license represents an exemption from NRC regulations

that specify a 20-year license term for spent fuel storage facilities. The Commission approved the

exemption in early December. At that time, the agency emphasized its position that dry casks are an

interim or temporary storage method for spent nuclear fuel until a permanent repository for high-level

nuclear waste is available.

Surry in 1986 became the first commercial nuclear plant to be licensed by the NRC to operate a

dry-cask independent spent fuel storage installation. There are now more than 30 such installations in

the United States. Typically, spent fuel is moved into NRC-approved dry casks after cooling at least

five years in pools of water. Surry’s spent fuel pools are at capacity, making continued use of dry-cask

storage important for the plant’s two reactors to continue to operate to the end of their current operating

licenses in 2032 and 2033.

NRC TO DISCUSS 2004 PERFORMANCE ASSESSMENT

 FOR COMANCHE PEAK NUCLEAR PLANT

The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission staff will meet with representatives of TXU

Power on May 10 to discuss the results of the agency’s 2004 assessment of safety performance

at the Comanche Peak nuclear plant, located near Glen Rose, Texas.

The meeting will be held at 6 p.m. at the Somervell County Expo Center, 202 Bo Gibbs

Blvd., Glen Rose. Before the session is adjourned, NRC staff will be available to answer

questions from the public on the plant’s safety performance, as well as the agency’s role in

ensuring safe operation of the facility.

“Each year the NRC staff evaluates the performance of each of the nation’s commercial

nuclear plants,” said Region IV Administrator Bruce S. Mallett. “This meeting gives us a chance

to discuss our assessment with the company, local officials and residents near the plant. We

want to make this information available to the public and answer any questions people may have

about the plant.”

Overall, Comanche Peak operated safely during 2004 and will receive baseline

inspections during 2005. Baseline inspections are performed by the NRC Resident Inspectors

assigned to the plant and by inspection specialists from the Region IV office and the agency’s

headquarters in Rockville, Md. 

A letter sent from the NRC Region IV Office in Arlington, Texas, to plant officials will

serve as the basis for the meeting. It is available on the NRC web site at:

NRC PROPOSES $3,000 FINE AGAINST MICHIGAN FIRM

FOR FAILING TO ADEQUATELY SECURE NUCLEAR GAUGE

The Nuclear Regulatory Commission has proposed a $3,000 fine against Imaging Subsurface,

Inc., of Novi, Mich., for failing to adequately secure a portable nuclear gauge while it was being

transported to temporary job sites.

The company uses the portable gauges, which contain sealed radiation sources, to measure soil

conditions at road construction sites and other construction locations.

An NRC inspection in April found that the company was not properly securing the portable

gauge while it was transported in an open bed truck.

“NRC regulations require that the gauge be transported in a locked and shielded position and

that it be adequately secured to prevent theft or loss during shipping,” said Regional Administrator

James Caldwell. He added that, in this instance, the violation did not result in the loss of the gauge or

a direct safety hazard to company employees or the general public.

In addition to the violation for which the $3,000 fine was proposed, the NRC inspection also

identified two additional violations: Failing to have required shipping documents readily available

while the gauge was being transported and failing to lock a second gauge or its container while in

storage. No fine was proposed for these violations. The company took steps to correct the violations

before the NRC inspection was completed.

The company has until Sept. 16 to pay the fine or to protest it. If the fine is protested and

subsequently imposed by the NRC staff, the company may request a hearing.

NRC INVITES THE PUBLIC TO SUBMIT NOMINATIONS FOR THE 

ADVISORY COMMITTEE ON REACTOR SAFEGUARDS

The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission is seeking qualified candidates for its Advisory

Committee on Reactor Safeguards (ACRS), which provides the NRC with independent expert advice

on the safety of existing and proposed nuclear facilities, and the adequacy of proposed reactor safety

standards. The ACRS also provides advice related to the integration of safety and security at

commercial reactors.

At present, the committee is focusing on risk-informed and performance-based regulatory

approaches; license renewal applications; risk-informed revisions of the commission’s regulations in

Part 50 of the Code of Federal Regulations; power uprates; transient and accident analysis codes;

materials degradation issues; use of mixed oxide and high burn up fuels; and advanced reactor designs. 

ACRS members are drawn from a variety of engineering and scientific disciplines, and serve a

four-year term with the possibility of reappointment for an additional two terms. At this time, the NRC

is seeking individuals with at least 10 years of experience in thermal hydraulics, materials and

metallurgy, and/or nuclear plant operations. Candidates should have a demonstrated record of

accomplishments in nuclear reactor safety; those with pertinent graduate-level education will receive

additional consideration. It is the NRC’s policy to select the best qualified applicant for the job,

regardless of race, gender, age, religion, or any other non-merit factor. Consistent with the

requirements of the Federal Advisory Committee Act, the NRC seeks candidates with varying views

and of diverse background so that ACRS membership is balanced.

Conflict-of-interest regulations restrict the participation of members actively involved in

regulated aspects of the nuclear industry, so the degree and nature of any such involvement will be

weighed. Each qualified candidate’s financial interests must be reconciled with federal and NRC rules

and regulations prior to final appointment. This might require divestiture of securities issued by nuclear

industry entities, or the discontinuance of industry-funded research contracts or grants. A security

background investigation for a “Q” clearance (or the transfer of an up-to-date “Q” clearance) is also

required.

Candidates must be citizens of the United States and be able to devote from 80 to 100 days per

year to ACRS business. A resumé describing the educational and professional background of the

applicant including any special accomplishments, professional references, current address and
2

telephone number should be included. Resumés must be submitted by June 6, 2005, to Sherry Meador,

Executive Secretary, ACRS/ACNW, Mail Stop T2E-26, U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission,
