Shutdown Sites Evaluation
The purpose of the shutdown sites evaluation is to support planning for removing SNF and GTCC waste from shutdown nuclear power plant sites by collecting and documenting information related to • Site inventory • Site conditions • Near-site transportation infrastructure and
experience Identify gaps in information needed to
ship SNF and GTCC waste from the shutdown sites
Based on the available information, identify options for transporting SNF and GTCC waste from the shutdown sites

Current Status of Shutdown Sites Activities
Updated Shutdown Sites Report (SSR) posted on DOE-NE website on 05/28/2015
Two site visits during 2015 • Crystal River – 02/18-02/19/2015 • San Onofre – 06/02-06/05/2015
Tribal, Federal Railroad Administration (FRA), State, and State Regional Group (SRG) representatives have now participated in 9 of the shutdown site visits
Revised SSR submitted 09/18/2015 Revised SSR includes information from
Kewaunee, Crystal River, and San Onofre site visits, and includes Vermont Yankee as a new shutdown site (the 13th)
Arranging Vermont Yankee site visit, anticipated to occur spring 2016
Incorporating SNF inventory data from GC-859 data base, released 12/08/2015

When is a site included in the SSR?
The shutdown sites included in the SSR are Maine Yankee, Yankee Rowe, Connecticut Yankee, Humboldt Bay, Big Rock Point, Rancho Seco, Trojan, La Crosse, Zion, Crystal River, Kewaunee, San Onofre, and Vermont Yankee
These sites have no operating nuclear power reactors at their sites and have also notified the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) that their reactors have permanently ceased power operations and that nuclear fuel has been permanently removed from their reactor vessels
Shutdown reactors at sites also having operating reactors are not included in the SSR (Dresden-1, Millstone-1, Indian Point-1)
As additional nuclear power reactor sites such as Pilgrim, FitzPatrick, and Oyster Creek shut down, these sites will be included in updates to the SSR

San Onofre – Current Conditions
San Onofre site visit – 06/02-06/05/2015 Also met with San Onofre Community
Engagement Panel (CEP), Pacific Sun Railroad (PSR), Bragg Crane, and North County Transit District (NCTD)
Three units at San Onofre • San Onofre-1, -2, -3 • San Onofre-1 ceased operations in 1992 • San Onofre-2 and -3 ceased operations in 2013
San Onofre has loaded 51 canisters into NUHOMS horizontal storage modules (HSMs) • 17 SNF, 1 GTCC from U1 in 24PT1 canisters • 33 SNF from U2 and U3 in 24PT4 canisters
San Onofre located on Marine Corps Base Camp Pendleton, providing an additional factor to incorporate into transportation planning

San Onofre ISFSI
San Onofre – Future Loadings
San Onofre will expand ISFSI to accommodate U2 and U3 SNF currently in pool • 2668 assemblies • ISFSI expansion permit approved by the California
Coastal Commission on 10/06/2015 San Onofre will use the Holtec HI-STORM UMAX
system for future SNF loadings using MPC-37 canisters
San Onofre may also load SNF and GTCC waste into existing NUHOMS 24PT4 and 32PTH2 canisters • The number of additional 24PT4 and 32PTH2 canisters
to be loaded with SNF has not been finalized – 0-12 24PT4s canisters – 0-6 32PTH2s canisters
Total of 123-129 SNF canisters and 11 GTCC canisters from U1, U2, and U3 at conclusion of loadings (estimated) • A maximum of 73 MPC-37 canisters will be loaded with
SNF 12

San Onofre Transportation Infrastructure – Rail
Mainline in front of San Onofre is owned by the North County Transit District (NCTD)
Amtrak Pacific Surfliner and Metrolink commuter rail service operate over the same track between Orange County and Oceanside, California
San Onofre has an onsite rail spur and direct rail access provided by the Pacific Sun Railroad (PSR), which interchanges with the BNSF Railroad at the Stuart Mesa Railyard, about 13 miles south of the San Onofre site
Onsite rail spur was used to ship several large turbine shells, turbine rotors, three steam generators (209 tons each), pressurizer (105 tons), and low-level radioactive waste (LLW) during the decommissioning of San Onofre-1
Onsite spur is built with 90 lb. rail and mainline track is track class 5 and is built with 115 lb. rail
Because of commuter traffic, freight service (provided by the Pacific Sun Railroad) is limited to 12:00am to 5:00am 28

San Onofre Infrastructure – Barge
San Onofre does not have onsite barge facility • Tried to establish an onsite barge
facility during construction, but was not successful due to strong currents and wave activity in front of site
Large components shipped by barge to Del Mar Boat Basin and transported by heavy haul truck to San Onofre site • Example – four replacement steam
generators (650 tons each)

San Onofre Infrastructure – Heavy Haul Truck
Heavy haul truck transport used to ship 4 old steam generators (SGs) to Clive, Utah for disposal
Each SG weighed 760,355 lb., and was 15.5 ft. tall, 15.5 ft. wide, and 43 ft. long, and gross vehicle weight was 1,561,050 lb.
Transport took 14 days
