REASONABLY ACHIEVABLE REVIEW RESPONSIBILITIES Primary - Organization responsible for the review of health physics issues. Secondary - None I. AREAS OF REVIEW The staff will review the applicant’s preliminary safety analysis report (PSAR) for a construction permit (CP) or final safety analysis report (FSAR) for an operating license (OL), design certification (DC), or combined license (COL) as it relates to assuring that occupational radiation exposure (ORE) will be as low as is reasonably achievable (ALARA): The specific areas of review are as follows: 1. Policy Considerations A. The applicant’s management policy with respect to designing and constructing the plant CP PSAR, DC FSAR or COL FSAR, and the planned organizational structure (OL FSAR and COL FSAR). B. The applicable activities carried on by the applicant’s management personnel having responsibility for radiation protection (OL FSAR and COL FSAR) 12.1-2 Revision 3 - March 2007 C. Information describing the applicant’s implementation of policy, organization, training, and design review guidance provided in Regulatory Guides 1.8, 8.8, and 8.10, and information describing any proposed alternatives (CP PSAR and updated in the OL FSAR, DC FSAR, or COL FSAR) 2. Design Considerations A. Information describing how the applicant has used experience from past designs and from operating plants to develop improved radiation protection design (CP PSAR and updated in the OL FSAR, DC FSAR, or COL FSAR) B. Information describing the applicant’s implementation of the design guidelines of Regulatory Guide 8.8, Section C.2, and other industry-developed design guidance that includes ALARA criteria, and information describing any proposed alternatives (CP PSAR and updated in the OL FSAR, DC FSAR, or COL FSAR) C. Information describing the applicant’s consideration of ALARA criteria during the implementation of a certified design or design modifications (CP PSAR and updated in the OL FSAR, or COL FSAR) 3.
