Change
(1) Change means a modification or addition to, or removal from, the facility or spent fuel storage cask design or procedures that affects a design function, method of performing or controlling the function, or an evaluation that demonstrates that intended functions will be accomplished. (2) Departure from a method of evaluation described in the FSAR (as updated) used in establishing the design bases or in the safety analyses means: (i) Changing any of the elements of the method described in the FSAR (as updated) unless the results of the analysis are conservative or essentially the same; or (ii) Changing from a method described in the FSAR to another method unless that method has been approved by NRC for the intended application. (3) Facility means either an independent spent fuel storage installation (ISFSI) or a Monitored Retrievable Storage facility (MRS). (4) The facility or spent fuel storage cask design as described in the Final Safety Analysis Report (FSAR) (as updated) means: (i) The structures, systems, and components (SSC) that are described in the FSAR (as updated), (ii) The design and performance requirements for such SSCs described in the FSAR (as updated), and (iii) The evaluations or methods of evaluation included in the FSAR (as updated) for such SSCs which demonstrate that their intended function(s) will be accomplished. (5) Final Safety Analysis Report (as updated) means: (i) For specific licensees, the Safety Analysis Report for a facility submitted and updated in accordance with 72.70; (ii) For general licensees, the Safety Analysis Report for a spent fuel storage cask design, as amended and supplemented; and (iii) For certificate holders, the Safety Analysis Report for a spent fuel storage cask design submitted and updated in accordance with 72.248. (6) Procedures as described in the Final Safety Analysis Report (as updated) means those procedures that contain information described in the FSAR (as updated) such as how SSCs are operated and controlled (including assumed operator actions and response times). (7) Tests or experiments not described in the Final Safety Analysis Report (as updated) means any activity where any SSC is utilized or controlled in a manner which is either: (i) Outside the reference bounds of the design bases as described in the FSAR (as updated) or (ii) Inconsistent with the analyses or descriptions in the FSAR (as updated).
