REVIEW PROCEDURES The reviewer will select material from the procedures described below, as may be appropriate for a particular case. These review procedures are based on the identified SRP acceptance criteria. For deviations from these acceptance criteria, the staff should review the applicant’s evaluation of how the proposed alternatives provide an acceptable method of complying with the relevant NRC requirements identified in Subsection II.

If this is not possible because of a delayed submittal, perform an acceptance review of the PGP. Specifically, audit the four parts of the PGP to determine if there are any major deficiencies in the EOP program that warrant postponing operator training. If major deficiencies are found, identify the
