TABLE 6-3: ADDITIONAL EQUIPMENT FOR BRP SITE TRANSFER

Equipment

Description / Rationale

Crane: 1330 or 500 ton mobile crane

Due to the weight of the storage casks and the height required to raise it to make the proper transfer of the canister (W74) from the storage cask (W150) to the transport cask (TS125), the requirement to not lift one cask above another and the potential extension of the boom (50 ft), a larger mobile crane is required for this operation. It is a safer operation with an assist crane, especially considering the rotation required in the lift operation and to support removal and replacement of the cask lids. To reach the top of casks and assist in any operation that is required to safely extend reach.

Assist crane

Man basket/ lift

Large forklift and air pallet system Standard Rigging & Supplies

Used to move the storage cask within the ISFSI

Used for handling of lids, covers, etc.

Standard Tools

These are to include personnel protective equipment (PPE), communications equipment, wrenches, etc.

Specialty Rigging

These will be provided by the site for lifts and or turning the storage casks and transportation casks. The cask will be transferred to the site with the required cask loading support equipment in order to support dry runs.

6.4 Sequence of Operations / Schedule The sequence of operations and timeline detailing the operations associated with the facility at BRP, the transportation operations, and the trans-loading operations at the rail spur are shown in Table 6-4 and Figure 6-7. Some operations identified in this section could be done concurrently (equipment staging and some inspections) to reduce the overall timeline for the campaign, however timeline identified in this section does not credit these potentially concurrently performed activities. Transfer operations at BRP would include the cask handling operations to transfer the canister to the TS125 cask and the cask preparation activities for shipment. This evolution would take approximately 3 days. Transport of the TS125 cask from the BRP site to the rail spur is estimated to take 1 day and loading operations to transfer the cask from the transport trailer to the rail car is estimated to take 2 days. One cask transfer evolution from BRP to the rail spur would therefore take approximately 6 days. The assumptions for scheduling is that all the equipment is ready, maintained, and in operable condition before the mobilization of the equipment. In addition, all the origin site and transload
