electrical and I&C equipment that are important to safety is acceptable and meets the relevant requirements of 10 CFR 50.49; 10 CFR 50.67; 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix A, General Design Criteria 1, 2, 4, and 23; and 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix B, Quality Assurance Criteria III, XI, and XVII; with respect to systems and components being designed to withstand the effects of, and being capable of performing their safety function, in the environmental conditions associated with normal operation, maintenance, testing, and accident conditions. This conclusion is based on the finding that the applicant has implemented an environmental design and qualification program that provides adequate assurance that mechanical, electrical, and I&C equipment that are important to safety will function as intended in the event of anticipated operational occurrences, as well as in the normal, accident, and post-accident environmental conditions. The applicant's environmental design and qualification program is in accordance with the requirements and guidance described in the regulations, regulatory guides and industry standards identified in Subsection II of SRP Section 3.11. For DC and COL reviews, the findings will also summarize the staff’s evaluation of requirements and restrictions (e.g., interface requirements and site parameters) and COL action items relevant to this SRP section. The applicant described the Environmental Qualification Program and its implementation in conformance with the relevant requirements of 10 CFR 50.49; 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix A, General Design Criteria 1, 2, 4, and 23; and 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix B, Quality Assurance Criteria III, XI, and XVII. Implementation milestones are contained in FSAR Table 13.4-x and will be addressed in a license condition. In addition, to the extent that the review is not discussed in other SER sections, the findings will summarize the staff's evaluation of the ITAAC, including design acceptance criteria, as applicable.
