UNITED STATES NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION WASHINGTON, D.C. 20555-0001 November 30, 2000 MEMORANDUM TO: Susan F. Shankman, Deputy Director Licensing and Inspection Directorate Spent Fuel Project Office, NMSS FROM: Timothy Kobetz, Project Manage Licensing Section Spent Fuel Project Office, N SS

SUMMARY

OF THE NOVEMBER 17, 2000, MEETING BETWEEN THE NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION STAFF AND PACIFIC GAS AND ELECTRIC COMPANY (TAC NO. L23221)

On November 17, 2000, a meeting was held between the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) staff and representatives of Pacific Gas and Electric Company (PG&E) to discuss PG&E's plans for licensing independent spent fuel storage installations (ISFSls) at Diablo Canyon and Humboldt Bay. At this meeting, PG&E provided a status update and specific information regarding the proposed ISFSIs. Members of the public also attended the meeting. is an attendance list. Attachment 2 contains the slides used in PG&E's presentation. This meeting was noticed on October 31, 2000.

PG&E stated that the schedules for the submittal of the site-specific ISFSI license applications for both facilities had slipped from the previous goal of October 2000. The Diablo Canyon application is now scheduled to be submitted in April 2001 and Humboldt Bay in the fourth quarter of 2001. In addition, PG&E presented the following regarding the Diablo Canyon ISFSI:

PG&E has initiated discussions with local and state officials and other special interest groups for siting an ISFSI at Diablo Canyon.

PG&E plans to begin construction of the ISFSI in 2004. Full core off-load capability will be lost in 2006.

PG&E requested that NRC review the Diablo Canyon ISFSI application concurrently with the Holtec Hi-Storm amendment that was submitted in August 2000. PG&E proposed this type of review to eliminate duplication of effort between applications. NRC staff stated they would consider the request but did not commit to granting the request.

PG&E briefly discussed ongoing engineering work for the cask transfer station and the high seismic requirement of the site.

PG&E presented an overview of its existing Quality Assurance Program and described its implementation for oversight of the ISFSI design.

S. Shankman November 30, 2000 PG&E and NRC staff agreed to hold future meetings to address specific technical issues resulting from vendor selections and associated design details and project status updates.

No proprietary information was disseminated or presented at this meeting. No regulatory decisions were requested or made.

HOL TEC/PG&E DOCKET INTERFACE

"* DC ISFSI License refers to Holtec FSAR and LAR 1014-1

" DC SAR demonstrates how HI-STORM 100 System design envelopes site-specific criteria

• Where HI-STORM 100 System does not envelope DC Criteria, site-specific analyses are performed DC SAR will be updated periodically to reflect the HI-STORM 100 System licensing actions

• Will reflect applicable HI-STORM 100 System 72.48 evaluations in DC SAR

• Holtec CoC anticipated to be amended before DC license is issued

• DC SAR will ultimately refer to Rev. 1 (or later) of HI-STORM FSAR at time of license 13
