McConnell, Jr., A.L. Ayers, Jr., M.J. Tyacke Idaho National Engineering Laboratory Lockheed Martin Idaho Technologies P.O. Box 1625 Idaho Falls, Idaho 83415-3850 Managed by the U.S. Department of Energy S.C. O'Connor, NRC Technical Monitor **Prepared for:** Division of Industrial and Medical Nuclear Safety Office of Nuclear Material Safety and Safeguards Office of Nuclear Regulatory Research U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission****Washington, DC 20555-0001 NRC Job Code L1179 Availability Notice Abstract This report provides a graded approach for classification of components used in transportation packagings and dry spent fuel storage systems. This approach provides a method for identifying the classification of components according to importance to safety within transportation packagings and dry spent fuel storage systems. Record retention requirements are discussed to identify the documentation necessary to validate that the individual components were fabricated in accordance with their assigned classification. A review of the existing regulations pertaining to transportation packagings and dry storage systems was performed to identify current requirements. The general types of transportation packagings and dry storage systems were identified. Discussions were held with suppliers and fabricators of packagings and storage systems to determine current practices. The methodology used in this report is based on Regulatory Guide 7.10, Establishing Quality Assurance Programs for Packaging Used in the Transport of Radioactive Material. This report also includes a list of generic components for each of the general types of transportation packagings and spent fuel storage systems. The safety importance of each component is discussed, and a classification category is assigned.
