SECY-02-0067 & SRM-02-0067 Title: Inspections, Tests, Analyses, and Acceptance Criteria (ITAAC) for Operational Programs (Programmatic ITAAC) Content: SECY-02-0067 recommended ITAAC for operational programs required by regulations such as training. In its SRM, the Commission directed that (with the exception of ITAAC required on emergency planning), ITAAC for a program should not be necessary if the program and its implementation are fully described in the application and found to be acceptable by the NRC at the COL stage. SECY-05-0197& SRM-05-0197 Title: Review of Operational Programs in a Combined License Application and Generic Emergency Planning Inspections, Tests, Analyses, and Acceptance Criteria Content: SECY-05-0197 allows the use of the generic emergency planning ITAAC as described in Attachment 2 of SECY-05-0197. A DC is a process whereby standard designs are approved by rulemaking. The resulting DCR is included in 10 CFR Part 52 as an appendix. Appendices A through E have each incorporated by reference a generic DCD that contains the Tier 1 and Tier 2 information and generic technical specifications. To date, all DCRs have incorporated by reference a DCD. A DC applicant, however, could choose not to submit a DCD and instead submit an FSAR with all the information required under 10 CFR 52.47(a). If an inconsistency exists between information contained in Tier 1 and Tier 2, the Tier 1 certified information takes precedence. The design descriptions contained in the Tier 1 document are derived exclusively from the Tier 2 document. In addition, the Tier 1 design descriptions include tables and figures that are referenced in the acceptance criteria of the ITAAC. The tables and figures identify the components, equipment, system piping, building walls, and so forth that are verified by ITAAC and provide a convenient method for managing the size of the ITAAC tables. For example, an ITAAC that requires
