idelines of 10 CFR Part 100. In addition, plant sites reviewed in the past which had equivalent aircraft traffic in equal or closer proximity were, after careful examination, found to present no undue risk to the safe operation of those plants. Based upon this experience, in the staff=s judgment, no undue risk is present from aircraft hazard at the plant site now under consideration. In the event that the staff evaluation of the aircraft hazards does not support the above basis (i.e., if SRP Section 2.2.3 criteria are not met), then the basis for acceptance is derived from applying the GDC 3 and GDC 4 criteria. If the protection against aircraft impacts and fires is such that the plant safety-related SSCs meet the GDC 3 and GDC 4 criteria, then 10 CFR Part 100 requirements are considered to be met and a conclusion of the following type may be included in the staff=s SER: The staff concludes that the operation of the plant in the vicinity of ___________________ does not present an undue risk to the health and safety of the public from aircraft hazards and meets the relevant requirements of GDC 3 and 4. This conclusion is based on the staff having independently verified the applicant=s assessment of aircraft hazards, including aircraft fires and impacts, at the site and that, if the appropriate safety-related SSCs are designed to withstand the aircraft selected as the design-basis aircraft, then the probability of an aircraft strike causing radiological consequences in excess of the exposure guidelines of 10 CFR Part 100 is less than about 10-7 per year. For Design Certification Reviews The following statement should be preceded by a list of the applicable site parameters used for the plant: The applicant has selected the site parameters referenced above for plant design inputs (a subset of which is included as Tier 1 information), but does not claim that they are representative of any particular percentile of possible sites in the United States, and does not assert
