Content:
the industry standards and regulatory guidance the applicant has committed to that are related to emergency planning and preparedness. The reviewer should also gain familiarity with proposed radiation protection activities and other operational matters that interface with emergency plans; particularly, as described in the SAR in sections of Chapters 12 and 13. 4. Although the bulk of the emergency planning information should be found in Section 13.3 of the SAR (or referenced therein), the reviewer should gain familiarity with the site, including the emergency planning zones, demography, land use, plant design and layout, and major accidents and/or incidents postulated by the applicant. The reviewer may supplement this information by a personal visit to the site and meetings with the applicant. If the applicant is a licensee for a previously licensed plant, the reviewer should review recent NRC emergency planning and health physics inspection reports, and discuss any identified concerns with appropriate regional inspectors. 5. The reviewer should confirm that the application addresses physical characteristics unique to the proposed site that could pose a significant impediment to the development of emergency plans, as required by 10 CFR 100.1, 10 CFR 100.3, 10 CFR 100.20, and 10 CFR 100.21(g). If such physical characteristics are identified, the reviewer should determine whether the application identifies measures that would, when implemented, mitigate or eliminate the significant impediment. 6. In consultation with the assigned reviewer for SRP Section 2.1, the reviewer should determine whether the area surrounding the reactor and exclusion zone comply with the definition of “exclusion area” and “low population zone” in 10 CFR 100.3. While the exclusion area and low population zone are reviewed in SRP Section 2.1, the relationship of the population and characteristics within these areas to emergency planning should also be examined. Specifically, the
