Content:
The technical rationale for applying of the above acceptance criteria for reviewing the management and technical-support organizations is discussed in the following paragraphs. 1. Compliance with the relevant requirements of 10 CFR 50AO(b) requires that the applicant be technically qualified to engage in activities associated with the design, construction, and operation of a nuclear power plant, in accordance with the regulations in 10 CFR Part 50. Similarly, 10 CFR 50.80 requires that the applicant for a license transfer be technically qualified to hold the license. The management and technical support organizations established by the applicant to oversee the design and construction of a nuclear power plant provide valuable insights into the corporate management's understanding of its safety role in the design, construction, operation, and maintenance of the facility. Those insights help determine that an applicant is technically qualified by ensuring that the applicant addressed appropriate considerations in establishing general qualification requirements and staffing levels for all key positions on which the safety of the facility will depend. Meeting the requirements of 10 CFR 50.40(b) and 10 CFR 50.80, as applicable, provides assurance that the applicant is technically qualified to engage in the proposed activities and has established the necessary management and technical-support organizations to safely operate the proposed facility. m.
